TIME TO DUMP MCCAIN OVERBOARD! [Read more]
The media and political establishment want you to think John McCain's nomination is inevitable!
They think you're stupid — and that if they tell you what to do, you'll simply do as you're told… And they would like nothing better than to nominate the Democrats' favorite RINO!
But don't be deceived… We've got some hard and swift news for the Washington elites — McCain's nomination is NOT inevitable, and together we can nominate a REAL RONALD REAGAN CONSERVATIVE.
Despite the attempt to give John McCain the GOP Presidential nomination, the party doesn't have to nominate every Democrat's favorite Republican.
And yes, we CAN stop the McCain Express dead in its tracks, but only if we act now! [Read more]
Republican voters are now being given to believe that “IT”S OVER” and their choice is limited to John McCain. THIS IS ONLY TRUE IF CONSERVATIVES COLLABORATE IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT MADNESS, AND ENDORSE MCCAIN WITH THEIR SUPPORT!
If conservatives do not vote for McCain in the remaining primaries, and stand united for an open convention, we can prevail. The entire convention, or separate state delegations, can act to open the proceedings and unbind their delegates even on the first ballot at the GOP convention! In any event, McCain will lack enough bound delegates to prevail at the end of the primaries, if we stop the party from stampeding to his rescue with the party’s unbound delegates!
WE MUST MOVE FORWARD OUR DEMAND FOR AN OPEN CONVENTION, AND A DRAFT FOR A TRUE CONSERVATIVE NOMINEE!
At this stage in the 2008 presidential election, Mitt Romney, Mike Huckabee, and Ron Paul and other, more CONSERVATIVE candidates are still on ballots in remaining state contests — AND A VOTE FOR ONE OF THEM STILL IS A STRONG MESSAGE THAT THE RANK-AND-FILE REJECTS JOHN MCCAIN, AND WANTS the delegates at OUR convention to draft a "true" conservative leader as our standard bearer.
The terrible GOP turn-out in the primaries tells the story of the impending electoral disaster with McCain at the top of the ticket — consistent with national polling that has, for months, shown "none of the above" as the conservative choice. A growing number of Republicans are talking about "voting with their feet”
(planted firmly on a footrest), and sitting out the general election altogether.
This could result in the drafting of a "dark horse" nominee not usually mentioned by the media or the party.
We're therefore running our own online preference poll to identify possible choices beyond those we've seen widely in the media, on party lists, or at the ballot box, throughout what has obviously been an elitist-engineered, virtually runaway election. (Hence we're not including familiar names like McCain, Giuliani, Thompson, Romney, Huckabee, or Paul — no matter the support that continues to exist for them. We're looking to identify someone new, generally overlooked, or not previously given a fair opportunity.)
Take a look at our list and pick your favorites — at least your top three. You can write in one additional name.

The media have designated and re-designated the Republican "front-runner": John McCain, then Mitt Romney, then Rudy Giuliani, then Mike Huckabee. The media are also speculating whether Hillary Clinton will lose her front-runner status to Barack Obama. [Read more]

"Speaking as a private individual, I would not vote for John McCain under any circumstances," said James Dobson, founder of the Colorado Springs-based Focus on the Family as well as the Focus Action cultural action organization set up specifically to provide a platform for informing and rallying constituents.

It's a step not to be taken lightly.
The idea of a perfect conservative candidate is a dangerous illusion. As an old Irish Democratic ward heeler once told me: "When you're running for public office and look at yourself in the mirror, that's when you'll see a candidate you agree with completely." [Read more]

This column cannot fully explain why the Republicans are having such a difficult time finding a more acceptable candidate for their party's nomination. We can only hope that somehow in the primary contests that are left, GOP voters are in a mood to begin a rollback of the McCain steamroller so as to give America a more clear and decent choice in November.

But if history is any guide, the McCain we've seen of late on the campaign trail is the most conservative McCain we'll ever see.
He has taken a commanding lead in the GOP primary by packaging himself as the "true conservative" committed to limited government, to slashed federal spending and to an avowedly conservative Supreme Court.
