(Please note that I'm not a McCain supporter.) Yes. It was an event for a cpl of days. It died down quick, don't you think? No, it lasted at least two weeks. Then some news event that I now can't remember displaced it and then it disappeared. Mr. McCain himself makes now fun of his temper. Of course he puts it in a diff. context. Yep. Only thing you can do when the press gets a hold of something and won't let it die. You can't fight those who buy ink by the barrel, only deflect their attacks. If he tried to fight this he'd only be proving them correct, right? Humor was his only defense. This temper stuff came out in a newspaper in his own Home State. And living in his Home State I know that the state Republican Party and the Republican governor Jane Hull are Big Time Bush supporters. Nobody has found a connection. Uh huh. Forbes and some of the other candidates have complained about some of the tactics of "independent" Bush supporters, too. There have been no connections found there either, but they happened. I am not against Mr.Cain. It's just that he is not my first choice and less now when I see him attacking Mr. Bush's tax plan and misrepresenting his Soc.Sec.stance etc. I agree, but I don't think either of them have anything different than the same old campaign promises, except that McCain is using Democrat's arguments in attacking anything that will help "The Rich." (If his "rich" is like Clinton's was found to be when they ran the numbers, then that means anyone who makes more the 30k per year.) And besides, why should I trust any tax-related campaign promise that Bush makes any further than one of his daddy's? And practically calling Mr. Bush an insider while calling himself the new outside thing after 12 years in the Congress/Senate. I was not for Sen. Hatch either. Everybody is calling for a change. So let's have a change and vote for a real outsider like Mr. Bush. Ha ha ha! Bush an outsider? His papa was the president and he's a career politician from a family of career politicians. Give me a break. Neither he nor McCain are outsiders. Outsiders rarely run for President through one of the major parties and when they do they're ignored and given no support. You have to be a Good Party Man and wait your turn to have a shot, especially if you want to be The Anointed One like Bush is this time and Dole was last time. My prediction is that whatever momentum McCain has will disappear when we hit the first large block of primaries where you need the massive campaign support that only The Anointed One has available through the party apparatus. Why do you think they set up the super primary blocks, to make it easier for dark horses to win? BTW. I could go for Forbes if he had a chance. I like some of his stuff. But I don't like to waste my vote. That's who I'll most likely vote for.
