With John McCain’s all-too-easy road to the nomination paved through Florida and now nearly complete one thing is clear: The Republican Party has been hijacked. Over the past month a new Axis of Evil has emerged -- not one based in Damascus, Tehran or Pyongyang -- but instead in Cedar Rapids, Charleston, South Carolina, Derry, New Hampshire and Boca Raton, Florida. It is the liberal and “independent” voters in these 4 states that have nearly completed a deed that makes Kim Jong Il envious -- the near crippling of the American Electoral System. These four states have combined their native liberal populism with an imported liberal electorate and have forced the GOP to accept a nominee so distasteful that in more than one poll -- the numbers of voters choosing not to vote and those choosing to vote third party actually exceed those who will hold their nose and vote for Maverick, War Hero, Amnesty Supporter, John McCain.

One begins to understand why McCain and Hillary are "very close."

What I don't understand is why all the primaries aren't closed. Why should independents be allowed to help pick candidates for specific parties?

[DesertFox]

I ast this earlier. The way it is now, Democrats pick the GOP nominee and GOPers the Commie nommie.

Love it! Let this be fair warning to those who would choose McCain for his war record alone... this man is willing to sell us down the river with amnesty. Why in the hell are people starting to support this traitor, it's beyond me.

But hey, the McCainiacs counter, “John McCain is a war hero -- right?” Let me be the first to say it’s not about what you did in the 60’s sir -- it’s about what you will do to America in 2009 and beyond.

'Cain ain't no war hero. Never was. So far as we know, he acquitted himself honorably over a period of several years under extremely trying circumstances. If that's true, it makes him a survivor, not a hero.
