Like I said, someone will play that card: (no matter which side they are on) Post-Michigan Fallout John LeBoutillier Wednesday February 23, 2000 1) Al Gore must be chortling today. Yesterday?s Michigan-Arizona sweep by Senator John McCain guarantees a protracted, divisive and nasty fight for weeks and months to come before the GOP has a nominee. Whether that nominee is Bush or McCain, he will be bloodied and broke. He will then have to put together a fractured Republican Party ? and he will have a news media that is now obsessed with the "power" of Pat Robertson and the Religious Right. Meanwhile, AL Gore ? long thought to be a sure loser in November ? is about to be in the position Republican leaders thought George W. Bush would be in: husbanding his money, able to consolidate his party and directing his attention to attacking the weakened nominee of the opposing party. 2) Who is the genius who devised a system that allows non-Republicans to vote in Republican primaries? It is crazy that left-wing Democrats like State Rep. Lamar Lemmons and losing Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jeffrey Feiger can urge their mischief-making supporters to come into the GOP primary and cause trouble. 3) McCain is doing well ? but his own party is against him. John McCain already had the entire GOP establishment ? governors, senators and party leaders ? against him. But now GOP rank and file voters are also against him by a two to one margin. Something is wrong when a candidate can be in the running for a major party?s nomination ? despite the fact that no one INSIDE that party wants him! 4) No, Nancy, Please NO! Reports surfacing that Nancy Reagan may endorse John McCain on the eve of the California Primary are upsetting to this Reaganite. John McCain is NOT a Republican in the Reagan tradition. Dutch was sunny, nice, friendly and constant. McCain is nasty, mean, two-faced and unreliable. That is why those who know him best like him least. Nancy, George W. Bush is no Reagan, either. So why don?t you remain above the fray? Keep that special name ? Reagan ? for a candidate who deserves it. Perhaps some day he will ride along and make you ? and us ? proud, like your wonderful husband did. ... newsmax.com
