The mind boggles....

Can someone out there please explain to me what this conservative hatred for John McCain is all about? I understand where it comes from. "Ooh, he's a maverick," "Ooh, he did that campaign finance reform thing and that immigration reform thing. But where does this visceral, better-Clinton-than-McCain, HATRED come from?

Your guy didn't win, so you're taking your ball and going home? Really mature. Don't bitch and moan when you're required to sign up for national health care. Which will be the number one issue that a Democratic congress and a Democratic president will want to pass. Hey conservatives, you think that a $1.2 trillion prescription drug plan is bad? Let's look briefly at what a national health care plan would be like.

Ok, I exagerate slightly, but not much.

McCain has an 82% rating from the American Conservatives Union. He's just not going to kowtow to establishment media and beg forgivness for their differences. This childish game of "our way or the highway" that Rush Limbaugh, George Will, and others are playing is ridiculous.

Ridiculous: worthy of ridicule. Something to be mocked.

For the record...

No poems, no snazzy videos, no jokes. Just a cold, hard, quick, "for the record" update.

Iowa Results:
1. Obama
2. Edwards
3. Clinton
4. Nobody cares about you

1. Romney
2. Huckabee
3. McCain
4. Thompson
5. Paul
6. Giuliani
7. Get out of the race, it was over for you a long time ago.

Everyone will continue to Iowa except perhaps Thompson, who's gotten no traction and nobody likes him anyways. Edwards loses the race if he loses Iowa. So does Obama, probably. Giuliani seems to be trying the avaunt guard strategy of losing races to win. That might work in jiu jitsu or something, but not here. Paul is nuts, who knows how long he's going to stay in the Republican primary. Key world there: Republican. Look for the Huck-a-boom to die down and McCain might take off.

We'll see.
