My prediction on who will win the presidency
white Boy:
i wouldn't be suprized to see romney mccain, i mean, mccain and gulliani makes no sense, they will never win, they are like the 2 craziest anti middle east guys and wont win, mccain needs romney for the economic issues and romney needs mccain for millitary, i think if they are together they will win, i do agree with you trauama, if mccain is the nominee he loses if its romney he wins,

You probably aren't a republican, and that's fine... but if you were, you'd know that John McCain is a bastard who cannot STAND Mitt Romney. McCain will never, ever want Romney as a veep. In case you haven't been watching what's going on.... 3 days before the Florida Primary, McCain (who bitched and moaned that George Bush pulled dirty attack ads to defeat him in South Carolina in 2000) put out a press statement saying that Romney said in April 07 that he was for a timetable to pull troops out.
After reviewing what Romney said in the interview in April 07, it was clear to everybody that he didn't say that. He said that There should be no timetable proclaimed in public, and that you don't want to do that since the enemy would just lie in wait in the bushes until you left. He said that he would veto any bill calling for a timetable for troop withdraw, and mentioned that of course Bush and the pres. of Iraq would have private conversations about timetables and milestones, but they couldn't publicly anounce them.
Last night in the debate, McCain actually said something to the effect of "Romney wants them to lie in the bushes until we leave!!!!"
?
It's just a complete mischaracterization of what he said, he's claiming Romney said exactly what he said NOT to do in the interview! It's just incredible.
John McCain is a complete loser who hasn't got a fucking thing accomplished except destroying the first ammendment with McCain Feingold. His Amnesty Bill with Kennedy was a complete joke, he wanted to give a 3000 dollar citizenship visa to any illegal immigrant, and when asked now if he would vote for that bill, says "It won't come to a vote". "yeah, but would you vote for it, Senator?" "It won't come to a vote".
He's a total prick who's lying about the best candidate in the field, and the American GOP is stupid enough to fall for it because they have their panties in a wad about who's going to beat Hillary Clinton. In national polls, McCain is tracking to be able to beat Clinton, or Obama.
Here's the problem with that; McCain has been a senator for 25 years. His name is in the press all the time, mainly because he has a hardon for showboating and naming bills after himself. The average idiot knows his name, and knows he was in a war, and is considered a war hero. Mitt Romney doesn't have the luxury of name recognition, the only people that know ANYTHING about him are people that actually looked at his record and researched the man. By November, in a general election Romney would be in the media constantly, and his record would be on display for everybody to decide, and he would simply defeat whoever the Democrat candidate is. Barack Obama has nothing to offer America but platitudes. Hillary Clinton would be a disasterous president and even her own party knows it.
I would much rather vote for Obama or Clinton than McCain. At least after they trash the country for 4 years, a republican can ride along to save the day. If McCain's elected, he'll be disasterous and we won't even be able to run against him in 4 years.
white Boy:
they are all shmucks as far as i can see, and i know they arent getting along now, but if mccain chooses gulliani, i think that would be the stupidests move ever, also if hillary or obama take edwards, ill be pissed off cause i dont like him at all

Great post man. I agree McCain won't choose Romney, which is a huge mistake. McCain has little money, but has the momentum and endorsements. Romney has little momentum, and no endorsements, but a lot of money. Romney has raised more money then all other GOP candidates. He obviously has a loyal following, and has deep pockets. Obama and Clinton can rack up hundreds of millions if they needed too. McCain can't raise anything. McCain needs someone who has, and can raise money, if he can compete with the democrats.
McCain is, a total, and utter loser. Every question he answers the same way, "I was in the war." Americans don't want the war. McCain can't take democrats away, or moderate republicans.
This election really determines the future of each party. And the GOP wants to pick a 71 year old war vet? Seriously now. Something was said on the debate last night which made a lot of sense. Governors are more qualified to be President then Senators. What do senators do? They vote on things. What do Governors do? They actually run a state, a "mini country." McCain isn't qualified. I'd take Huckabee over McCain.
And about all these endorsements. The first thing we always here is, "McCain is a dear old friend." Wow, McCain who's been in the Senate for decades is getting endorsements from his friends. What accomplishment is that?
I really don't see how anyone with half a brain could vote for McCain. He is not qualified. He hasn't lead anything in his life. He's a old man who votes for bills . How does that qualify you for even bagging groceries? Let alone running an entire country. Electing someone who's entire character is based upon war is idiotic. The economy should be the number one issue a thousand times over. Forget Romney's CEO experience, he was a govenor. He knows how to run a government. McCain is an old, hopefully dieing man. He is a joke, and a very negative person. His tone is depressing. His age is depressing. Everything about him screams "Loser." And yet, people vote for him.
Saying that, Feb 5th is too close for Romney or Huckabee to do any damage. The one thing they could do is, Huckabee drops out, and Romney endorses him as his VP candidate. If Romney and Huckabee somehow joined forces, McCain will lose. Huckabee can take the South, Romney the north west and north east, and let McCain win California and New York.
