		<description>I too am very disappointed with Senator McCain. His statements were all about getting elected and were very much detached from reality. It was the first time I have written to a member of congress who doesn&#039;t directly represent me.

		<description>JFT [3]

I used to have so much respect for McCain, and was thrilled when he, running as the &quot;moderate Republican&quot; in a sea of conservatives, won the 2008 Republican Primary.  That thrill was extremely short-lived after watching him flip flop on every issue and transform into an ultra-conservative who chose a person like Sarah Palin for his running mate at the convention!  It was the final motivation I would need in my decision to leave the GOP.  It&#039;s a shame his wife isn&#039;t running, I&#039;d vote for her!</description>

		<description>[4] neilm,

&lt;I&gt;Interesting video - watch the center of the country go from almost no unemployment to becoming average &lt;/i&gt;

I had to watch it 4 times in order to concentrate on different areas. Very interesting. :)</description>

		<description>I just hope that we can all stop pretending that there&#039;s anything positive to say about McThuselah. He&#039;s not a statesman or a maverick. He&#039;s the reckless, partisan crackpot warmonger who thought that the proto-Trump Sarah Palin should be VP. All these word salads are his fault. 

Arizona, please vote him off the island.</description>

		<description>if hillary wins, obama should withdraw garland&#039;s nomination. he was a compromise pick for the reasons you mentioned, and the GOP refused to play ball. obama is a lame duck anyway, so there&#039;s no cost to him. if hillary wins, withdraw the nomination. if donald wins, they&#039;d never confirm garland anyhow so it&#039;s moot.
