Border security should have been McCain's number one priority especially representing AZ. but no, not even close. Now of course since he is running for president he is telling us how important that is. He began his Senate run in 1987 and I believe there was an immigration problem then, so in 21 years he has done NOTHING TO FIX IT. Check google for his greatest accomplishments and you come up with he is a Reagan foot soldier  He voted for campaign finance reform, how did that work out He took over for Barry Goldwater when he retired He was a prisoner of war He did marry out of his league  Okay I have to give him that one. So aside from walking into political office as another old dude retired I just don't see what you are all excited about. BTW I am not ripping on McCain because he is a Republican, if there was a really quality Republican running I would have to consider that person in the general election but seriously McCain is not the guy to get this country back on its feet and out of Iraq. |
McCain originally served in the House and then became a Senator. You'd think one of his constituents would know that!
The guy's not perfect. Don't get me wrong. But what have the other two done??? And I don't even know why I am mentioning Hillary because she is done....so what has Obama done other than rhetoric about change? Didn't he campaign on that to get into the Senate??? What has he changed? What has Pelosi changed or the Democratic Senate for that matter?
I for one happen to agree with McCain on illegals. Because if you don't like the current hike in prices of food and other goods and services, what do you think they will become after we kick that labor force out? Don't be so short sighted on that issue.
Again...the guy's not perfect and probably a one termer, but he is better than the alternative. None of them will get us out of Iraq, but I can guarantee you that Barack will further bankrupt this country.
