Hawkins Cited in Kurtz's ColumnOur
buddy John gets a
faily long snippet from his anti-McCain piece in the WaPo.
John Hawkins at Right Wing News reminds us that some ardent conservatives don't trust McCain either--and resent his media profile.Not bad considering that the McCain-bashers cited from the portside are Paul Krugman and an American Prospect writer.
I am on the fence about McCain. Like the rest of you, I've certainly been exasperated at times with the little admiral, but also elated when he shows his good side. When you look around at the field of candidates for 2008, there's nobody that really stands out yet. Romney's interesting because he puts Massachusetts in play; ordinarily you'd think that would happen only in a landslide for the Republican. Allen? Just haven't seen enough of him to get a read.
I'm a Republican. But I want to win elections, not lose gloriously. I'm not going to support a candidate I don't think can win in the general election in 2008, particularly if the opponent from the Democrats is Hillary.
