McCain may win, Romney can’t (http://thehill.com/dick-morris/mccain-may-win-romney-cant-2008-01-30.html)<table class="contentpaneopen"><tbody><tr> <td colspan="2" align="left" valign="top" width="70%"> By Dick Morris </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="createdate" valign="top"> Posted: 01/30/08 12:01 AM [ET] </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top"> Some may agree with Sen. John McCain’s (R-Ariz.) positions on his myriad of causes and enthusiasms. Others may embrace Mitt Romney’s record as governor and his experience in business. But one fact remains pre-eminent — McCain has a much better chance of winning the election than does former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney (R).

If you feel confident, for some unknown reason, in a Republican victory, it is possible that either candidate could win. If you feel the nation is aching for a Democrat, as I do, then the importance of choosing the strongest candidate fades a bit.
But any rational observer has to conclude that John McCain has a better shot of winning than Mitt Romney does.

And, if a failure to win means the election of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), the stakes are too high to ignore the issue of political practicality in making a choice.

Perhaps because he is better known, the Arizona senator ties Hillary in the match-ups while Romney trails by up to 12 points.

But the real difference is not in their current polling performance, but in their future potential as November candidates.

Because of his immigration position — the same one that has so fouled his relationship with the Republican right — McCain has a very good shot at winning a lot of Hispanic votes. While the Clintons have always had a genuine, if now faded, popularity with blacks, they have never been able to boast of a strong Latino base. Partially because of Bill’s pardon of the FALN terrorists, Hillary swept the Puerto Rican vote in New York state in 2000, but she has no special appeal to bring to a genuine battle for their support. Romney’s hard-line immigration position will leave Latinos cold.
But McCain has a chance with them.

Oh boy! Another hot endorsement for McCain from THE LEFT! Just the kind of recommendation I need to make me wanna vote for this Marxist in Republican clothing...:rolleyes:

By all means let's canvas the Left to find out who they think we should choose for our nominee... Im sure they'll give us the best possible advice...

You can always tell which Republican candidate will be the easiest for the Democrats to defeat by which one liberals are pushing - i.e., McCain.

[Lazarus]

Ok... So now we have two opposing opinions on the subject... Of equal expertise IMO... Its now a question as to who we believe is giving us the most honest advice...

Call me a gambler but I'm gonna go with Tex.......:brow:

[Bluemoon_Rising]

McCain is the best candidate to beat the Dems.

[Lazarus]

Mao Tse Tung is the best candidate to beat Joseph Stalin...


Heinrich Himler is the best candidate to beat Adolph Hitler...


So.................?

[Bluemoon_Rising]

:rolleyes:

McCain is wrong on a number of issues. Hillary and her ilk are Stalinists. That's what's so.

[buzzthepug!]

I normally like Dick Morris but I'm praying Romney wins. I'm also hoping Romney takes Thompson as his running mate.

Of course I respect McCain's POW history but he's a little too liberal for me. I mean, how come a man who lives in AZ didn't know there was an immigration problem in the US until he got to Iowa? Hmmmm...

Can anyone cite any paricular difference between McVain and hillary?

Just one? He has served in and has never claimed to hate the military.

He SAYS he's pro life. She says she is pro choice.

He was nearly beat to death because he was serving our country. She has never served our country a day in her life.

McCain is serious about controlling spending and about winning the war against terrorism; that woman would strive to expand the government's interference in our lives beyond the boundaries of obscenity and reverse Bush's offensive posture against terrorism.

You are being sarcastic, right?

Can anyone cite any paricular difference between McVain and hillary?There's a rumor of a difference in genitalia, but that's unconfirmed...

No. They're both liberals. They're both liars. They're both turncoats. They'll both say anything to get elected. Either one would destroy the economy. Neither one will pull out of Iraq, though hillary is telling libs she will. John McVain has single handedly done more damage to the Republican Party than Nixon ever did. Rather than airing his disagreements over the handling of Iraq in private, he ran to the media and sucked up as much attention as he could get. He voted against the tax cuts calling them "tax cuts for the rich," just like all the OTHER liberals.

I am a conservative Republican and I will support any candidate other than McVain over any democreep. If the Republican Party decides to abandon us conservatives and nominate a liberal, then they can do it without my support. I'll hold my nose and support any other candidate. I will NOT vote to put McVain in the White House. Not ever.

You are a conservative IN the Republican party. You guys make it sound like the GOP is some secret club that picks our candidates. So far roughly 3.5 Million votes have been cast in the GOP primary season and I'm betting that the RNC didn't cast one of them, WE DID!

I have never been under the impression that the GOP was a conservative Good ole boy club. I have been under the impression that, like the 'Rat party, it is made up of many different sects. Conservatives just happen to be a big slice of the GOP pie, not the entire pie. A majority of those votes should have gone to FDT, but they didn't. It's not the GOP letting you down. We need more quality men/women to step up to the plate and "WILLINGLY" run for office.

Back in 2006 and the GOP electorate "juggernaut" :rolleyes: sent George Allen packing along with the likes of J.D. Hayworth and a few other SOLID conservatives. Allen would have been our frontrunner for POTUS this year and would have ran away with it. But after being "taught a lesson" in 06 his viability went by way of the telegraph...

The RNC is having a heck of a time finding quality "conservative" candidates to run for office, as nobody wants to step up. I'm not mad at the Republicans I'm mad at conservatives that won't run for office because they can't stand the heat! And I'm mad at the GOP electorate that lets the DBM do their thinking for them!!!!

WE have created one huge shit sandwich and now must all take a bite from it!

WE have created one huge shit sandwich and now must all take a bite from it!What you mean "We" paleface? I didnt not contribute to this sandwich, and I will not contribute to its expansion... I am NOT a Republican... I am a Conservative Christian and my loyalties lie with those principles taught to me by my God...

As you will recall, Ronald Reagan was once a Democrat, yet he turned his back on that party when it abandoned him and his principles... Now, regardless of how much we hate to admit it, OUR praty, the party that Reagan lead out of its black hole, has now in the process of abandoning US... Not all of us here may realize it yet, but eventually every true conservative will be faced with that reality, and we will all have to decide how far we will follow this party into the dark side...

I have reached my limit... I will support Mitt Romney on Super Tuesday, because my state is still a proportional delegate system... And I will watch the progress of this election... But I have already concluded that if THIS PARTY chooses John McCain to be their nominee, I am finished with the Pubs until they give me a candidate who comes back to the principles I believe in...

We all will have to take a bite of the sandwich, but I will have no part in its creation...:sulk:

I'm not so sure it's "can't stand the heat". It's more like "can't stand the stench" from having to deal with the HillBilly in their full pig slop campaign mode. That's the real Clinton legacy.

It's hard to fault quality people for not wanting any part of it. http://www.freeconservatives.com/vb/images/icons/sad00000.gif

Since Kentucky doesn't hold its primary until May 20, The GOP will have already chosen its candidate by the time we have any voice in the matter. I have always contended that party unity is necessary to prevent damn fools who do not deserve the right to vote from inflicting hillary clintoon upon us. From the beginning, my position has always been to support the "anyone but McCain" GOP candidate. I absolutely positively will not support that liberal SOB under any circumstances. I will vote straight ticket Republican EXCEPT for the presidential candidate.
