New Low for McLame Campaign?

You have to wonder if any tactic could be beneath John "Lettuce" McCain's Doubletalk Express campaign, after his phony claim that Romney supports a timetable for withdrawal from Iraq, and now this outrage:

The day before polls close in Tuesday's critical Florida primary, some voters in the Miami area received automated phone calls in Spanish falsely accusing Mitt Romney of supporting an opening of relations with Cuban President Fidel Castro.
A key member of Romney's Latin American policy team, Ambassador Roger Noriega, had been on local radio on Monday morning talking about Romney's anti-Castro stance. "It was obviously a dirty tactic and strategy to rebut the efforts we made to let the [Hispanic] community know our position," said Al Cardenas, Romney's Florida state chairman.
Asked if he suspected rival John McCain, Cardenas responded, "Obviously it's a camp of one of our opponents," later adding "I can't specifically state with certainty it is John McCain's campaign, all I know is there are two campaigns making these calls, ours and his and these calls started immediately after our programming on that issue."

McCain took Florida largely because of overwhelming support from Hispanics, many of whom are refugees from communist Cuba.

As we've learned from the Clintons, there's a difference between hardball and gutter ball.

At least no one will accuse McCain of not wanting to win.

Well............that leaves Romney.

Geeze, this is a frustating year.

'Clicking my heels together' - at least I'm not a Democrat.

Feel better now.

Well, after last night I guess we can kiss the fantasy of closed borders goodbye....and welcome 20 million, unassimilated new voters. I don't see much practical difference between Hillary, Obama, and McCain except maybe in the Iraq war area, but domestically, he would be a disaster.

Bob Beckel floated this morning the idea of a McCain/Romney ticket which mitigates my dread of a McCain administration a little....but not much.

If he wins it would be most interesting to see who he selects as VP given the statistical likelihood of such person actually completing McCain's term for him.

When I vote in November I'll be leaving president blank.

I'm looking at the bright side of a McAmnesty candidacy. Either way, a Democrat's going to lose this November.

He should choose Fred Thompson as VP, then just after taking office he croaks. Ribbit.

V,
I'm not so sure about that. There are too many conservatives who despise Juan McAmnesty enough to not vote for him under any circumstances.
The way I see it, Hitlery or Obambi as the Dem nominee, it doesn't matter; they're interchangeable and Juan McPain as the Rep nominee means we get to vote for a leftist no matter who we vote for.
I'd rather see a Dem in the White House when the terrorists hit the homeland again and the economy tanks. It will happen whichever of the three is in the Oval Office.

Posted by: steve at January 30, 2008 11:42 AM

Steve, what I meant. McAmnesty is Democrat, in philosophy if not by party affiliation. So, it will be a Democrat versus Democrat election. Hence, the loser will be a Democrat, even if the winner is also a Democrat.

Posted by: V the K at January 30, 2008 11:47 AM

Good one V. I should have gotten that. (blushing)
Unfortunately, if McAnmesty wins in November the Reps, and more importantly, conservatism will get the blame for the tragedy that will befall us.
I know Juan isn't a conservative, but to the media Republican = conservative. McShit is even proclaiming himself a conservative.
I weep for the future.

I think the possibility of McCain croaking in office is a very real one. He's had multiple cancer surgeries since 1993 ... melanomas, lymph nodes, salivary glands. The left side of his face seems to be bulging. (I'm apparently not the only one who has noticed this.) Frankly, he is living on borrowed time as it is, and I think the rigors of running for and serving as president could do him in.

Pick your VP well, John McCain.

Amnesty? Citizenship?

Wait, does this mean that I can fly over to the USA from whatever Thrid-World mudhole I live in, dash past the airport security guards, and become a Green Card American just like that?

Count me and 4 billion other people in!!!

President (please check one):

McCain doesn't want to be prez. He wants to be Caesar.
He's been in bed with so many politicos on both sides it's a wonder he's not died of the clap, but hey, melanoma DOES have a very high recurrence rate so it's likely he won't last 4 yrs. if he is anointed, so must agree with the prognosticators here.

I wouldn't vote for the senator if my life depended on it. Next to him, Romney looks like a saint. These must be the endtimes. Never thought I'd see a U.S. prez election fought over by a guy with a muslim surname vs. a guy whose surname means "son of cain". Anyone else find that just a wee bit ironic? Two apostates vying for the highest position in the world. Either way, we're screwed.

Posted by: fellowes at January 30, 2008 9:44 PM

BTW, if Son of Cain does get the nomination, he'll likely choose Guiliani. I would hope Romney would be above accepting the VP post were McCain slimy enough to ask. 'Course, Mitt might be more ambitious than moral.

Posted by: fellowes at January 30, 2008 9:48 PM

As for the VP pick for McClain, it will not be Rudy. Even though Rudy stuck his nose up McCain's 'poop shoot' tonight when he withdrew.

I asked Top his opinion, since he had the eyes on the ground in Fl.

I agree with his opinion about the possible choice.

.....if McCain gets the nomination, Florida Governor Charlie Crist is likely to be the VP on the ticket. Charlie Crist has given illegals the right to obtain drivers licenses.

Do you think Ronnie was rolling over in his resting place (about 100 yards from the CNN Rep Debate this evening) as they invoked his name?

My apologies to Mrs. Regan (Nancy) for the last post.

There is one hard core lady.

Nancy puts Jackie O. to shame in comparison.

You get what you deserve.

Anonymous, the problem is, as usual, the so-called conservatives "get what THEY deserve", but we are the ones who are condemned to suffer for it.

Posted by: hashfanatic at January 31, 2008 12:51 PM

The pity party here is way too funny. Looks like you're either gonna vote Dem, not vote at all, or vote "the jobs are never coming back, the illegals are never going home, but we’re gonna have a lot more wars" John McCain. Oh, but wait! You guys like war so evidently, you found your man.

Posted by: andy42302 at January 31, 2008 4:32 PM

andy,
I guess you haven't noticed, but conservatives detest Juan McCain.
He's a RINO, a Democrat in Republican clothing; a liberal.
There are NO conservatives in this race.

Posted by: steve at January 31, 2008 6:03 PM

"There are NO conservatives in this race."

Nevertheless, come November, you'll all fall in line like good little goyim, as always.

The perfect excuse will magically manifest itself.
