Where should ACORN send the 10 extra absentee ballots they had me fill out?

No Ramstad, he is as much a candidate as Coleman?!?
July 8th, 2009 at 7:52 am
Nobody nominated him.
Feel free to writein votes for Ramstad in the comment section.

Who is Steve Hahn? Closest that I can come is Senator David Hann of Eden Prarie.

Just got an idea for a great bumper sticker….
Ramstad/Carlson: The GOP ticket your kool-aid addled, moonbat sister dreams about.

I love hearing my Lefty friends say they would consider voting for Ramstad in a govern race.
Then they look at me strangely when I say he’s not really conservative enough for my tastes. Really?
They also think winning is everything.

And with all due respect to Flash, I can’t help but recall all of my lefty friends who said the same thing about McCain – up until he became a contender.
Then, he became “partisan”, “polarizing” and “ultraconservative”.
Mac’s lifetime ACU rating is, by the way, about a point to the right of Rammer’s, in the high sixties.
Rammer will be the “acceptable, electable Republican” until he gets nominated. Not a moment longer.

You got that right, Mitch. In fact, I’m tempted to actually say that to my friends and watch them splutter and stare.
I love ’em dearly, but they are lying… either to me or to themselves.

McCain abandoned all his principles to run to the Right for the Nomination, McCain the Senator and McCain the GOP nominee for President was two different people.

Flash-
Perhaps you would care to list the principles that McCain abandoned to secure the nomination. It should easy for you since it apparently includes every single principle he ever held as a U.S. Senator.

Ha ha ha ha ha
Surely you jest, Flush does not back up his blather. He is here to spew lies and talking points.

McCain abandoned all his principles to run to the Right for the Nomination,
Specifics, please?
I mean, in terms of specific, substantive policy changes that contradicted his record as a Senator? And by “substantive” I mean “things where he’d have governed as president very different than he deliberated as a Senator?”
Or admit that you’re recycling someone else’s talking point. That’d be fine, too. Because that’s what’d going on.

That’s a tough one. There are actually a lot of good candidates in that list. I’d be pleased if we nominated any but maybe 1 or 2 of them who are less than stellar conservatives.
July 8th, 2009 at 7:55 pm
Brod’s out.
I’d add Steve Sviggum to that list.

No specifics? I’m … not so shocked.
