I take issue with Guiliani's statement that McCain is an American Hero. My friends and I served in Vietnam and slogged through the jungles hunting the VC while McCain and others dropped bombs from a nice comfortable cockpit of a jet. McCain got shot down and surrendered to the North Vietnamese. He spent 6 or so years in captivity and signed a letter denouncing his country. SOME HERO!

McCain stated that when he first entered the US House of Representatives he was amazed at how complicated the rules were. Within a short while he began to understand and master these rules. He got elected to the Senate and has been there bedeviling his president and the Republican party ever since. The news media loves him. The old country club Republicans love him, but the conservatives detest his evil, idiotic positions. His and the Presidents support for the Amnesty of Illegal Aliens cost the Republican party the majorities in the House and in the Senate. He is a great conspirator.

Now he and Huckabee are conspiring to steal the nomination and present the presidency to the Democrats on a silver platter. To stop them don't for McCain or Huckabee.

When the Drive-by news media started lauding McCain, I new it was a Democratic ruse to try to reduce Romney's standing. Of course, I'll vote for McCain if he ends up the Republican runner, but I sure hope not!

I wish someone would tell Mitt to follow the advice, "...love your enemy", and"...bless them that despitefully use you...". I think that would swing a LOT of people his way!

Whether you vote for Hucklebee or McCain or Romney won't matter- Utah will go for Romney, but it won't matter. McCain will get the nomination and may choose Hucklebee as VP. Like it or not, McCain has best chance of beating democrats- and I think it will be Obama- I think Clinton lost her chance by going too negative and turning off too many democrats.

To say that the president's support for amnesty cost the republicans the 2006 election is nonsense- they lost it because of Iraq, fiscal irresponsibility and arrogance.
