Your aricle nails it. I am a staunch conservative more disgusted by failures of Republican lawmakers than by Democrats. The outright and bald-faced Anti-American 'Progressive' federal lawmakers do our cause good when they expose themselves with their stances on the Iraq War, Socialized Medicine, Gun Control, the 'Fairness Doctrine' etc. McCain and his ilk- such as Feingold and Specter- do America and the Republican Party harm by abandoning conservative ideals at critical moments such as this past year with the Immigration Bill debacle. With McCain's comment- at an event last year which i can't remember- that, (paraphrasing) 'You can't do it my friends", referring to his offer of $50.00/ hr. to anyone in the room who wanted to pick lettuce all day in the hot sun like Illegals do. One thing you don't do to an American individualist and conservative is say that i can't do something. Message for McCain.... I can do it and have worked much harder, in fact, than that and would again, just to show a recalcitrant Washington insider what 'outside the beltway' Americans are all about. Mr. McCain, you will never, never, never get my vote for President and I would campaign vigorously against you in Arizona in your next Senate reelection if i was an Arizonan.
