Do we really need 2 democrat parties?

Romney backs former rival McCain for re-election



BOSTON – Mitt Romney is endorsing former rival John McCain as the 2008 Republican presidential nominee faces a fight to keep his Senate seat.
Romney said in a statement Tuesday that the Arizona senator's "record of service and sacrifice for America is honored by all."

The former Massachusetts governor adds that it's "hard to imagine the U.S. Senate without John McCain."

McCain is facing a Republican primary challenge from former House member J.D. Hayworth.
McCain and Romney clashed bitterly at time in the 2008 race for the GOP nomination. After McCain pulled ahead, Romney not only endorsed him but energetically campaigned for him.
McCain's former running mate, Sarah Palin, is also backing him. She and Romney are potential rivals in the 2012 presidential race.

Media Cast Liberal Republican Meghan McCain as ‘Voice of Young Conservatives’
McCain claims to be ‘in love’ with the GOP and tries to tear it away from conservatives every chance she gets.


by Colleen Raezler, Culture and Media Institute



CPAC, the annual Conservative Political Action Conference begins Feb. 18. Conservative leaders will rally the troops before the mid-term elections in November and discuss the future role of conservatives in politics.



One person who will not be in attendance is Meghan McCain, despite the year-long media attempt to make citizens believe she is somehow representative of conservatives. She tweeted on Feb. 11, “I have no idea where this weird rumor I am speaking at CPAC came from, it isn’t true and I will not be attending or speaking.”



McCain, the 25-year-old daughter of former Republican presidential nominee John McCain and a writer for The Daily Beast, has taken it upon herself to tell the GOP what needs to be fixed within the party. Because she calls herself a Republican, media outlets have perpetuated the notion that she is also conservative. By doing that, they’ve pushed a liberal social agenda that directly conflicts with conservative values.



Writer Kathleen Parker, herself no stranger to conservative bashing, praised McCain last spring as “one smart cookie” who “in a matter weeks … has created a brand, presenting herself as a fresh face of her daddy’s party and voice of young conservatives.”



Jonathan Capehart of The Washington Post and a contributor to MSNBC, suggested last summer that “maybe what the Republican Party is going to have to do is skip a generation and wait for the Meghan McCains to come of age so they can run for office and take over the mantle of the party.”

It shows that the GoP isn't really listening and will just keep doing the same shit over and over again.

Man , that is just too long for this time of the morning.

They certainly havent earned mine back yet.

Meghan should ride off into the sunset with her old man.

Conservatives need to wake up and realize that J D Hayworth is proper douche and no amount of being right on the issues should cause them to climb on his douche wagon.

 

[NYcarbineer]

The mainstream GOP continues to follow my advice from post election 2006. MOVE TO THE CENTER! Get that wingnut ball and chain off your ankle and build a party that appeals to real Americans!

Man , that is just too long for this time of the morning.

I agree. Can't people cut their stuff down to two paragraphs!

 

[ihopehefails]

McCain is just to cozy with Obama. He didn't do shit to win the election and didn't want to. He deserves to lose a hell lot more and I, being a member of the great state of Arizona, will do my part to ensure his early retirment.

 

[Dr.Traveler]

Again, there's an opening forming for a third party.

I've heard that he's a real douche as well who doesn't get along with his colleagues and is very hard to work with. McCain may be too in the middle for most people but i don't think his motivations are in question; the man seems pretty selfless which is very hard to say about a politician.

This is where you're wrong. Obviously you can put a radical in there, but trying to be more like a democrat is not what wins elections for republicans. See how well McCain did?

You may want to check the assumption that rests with that notion. The assumption that what the American people want is actuatlly in the country's best interest.

Every American wanted to own their own home so Carter gave them the CRA, which was a big contributor into our recent economic collapse.

Apparently a lot of Americans think it would be just great if they just let government deal with their health care.

Building a party that 'appeals' to people, that basically just does what they want ain't the greatest idea in the world when you consider our society is getting dumber by the year. In general terms our society has become more individulaistic and instant gratification minded. They will demand of their representives, immediatly satisifying, self serving policies. Take the recent credit card rules change made by Obama. Has anyone really thought about this? Why on earth should we be giving people incentives to be less responsible with their money? Why should we be making it easier for people to spend more money they don't have? It's exactly what Carter did and look where it got us.

Personally I think it would be best if we didn't have official political parties at all. All political parties seem to do is prematurely divide people and making it harder to actually do what's right.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

Nope. We've had that for far too long. The Socialists/Progressives have infested both parties at this point. Time for the GOP to make some big changes. Lets hope this starts happening. I'm beginning to see some positive signs. They're still a long way from home though.

There is something seriously wrong with JD Hayworth. There was a reason he was sent packing before.

now if you can just get the mainstream Dems to move to the center and get the Far Left ball and chain off of their ankles,and get them to build a party that appeals to real Americans.....America will come back stronger than ever.....but....there are no leaders on both sides.....so we may be stuck awhile until one emerges....

people who are center of the road in both parties are not that far off in what they want for the country.....the closer to the center people are,the more things get done......as long as the fringe is involved,nothing will get done....

He lost in 2006, and he's just the kind of rightwinger that rightwingers claimed the GOP needed MORE of to have NOT lost in 2006 and 2008.

Strange logic, eh?

McCain did better than any alternative to his right would have done in 2008.

Well, good luck replacing our system with one that can happily ignore what the People want.
