In 1973, when it all collapsed for Richard Milhous Nixon, who was
Gerald R. Ford? Some guy snuck in from nowhere when the scandal under Nixon took Spiro Agnew.
John McCain is the spiritual heir of Gerald Ford, so that if Bush survives the next three years without impeachment or worse, the Republicans have someone to trot on from the side.
Please, people. Wake up. These are deeply cynical people who are accustomed to manipulating you. The same group that walked the halls in the Nixon and Ford years are back again, very determined to hang on to power as long as it's profitable.
Next time, I almost hope the enemies are fascists instead of these tinpot criminals. I'd rather deal with men instead of these souless creatures.
Don't vote R on the ticket. Don't let your friends. Don't let your family.
McCain is a Republican. A nice Republican, apparently. But don't support nice Republicans. Support tough Democrats.
