Where you are held accountable for your convictions and record

A longtime colleague of John McCain’s has endorsed Mitt Romney:

“The thought of his being president sends a cold chill down my spine,” Cochran said about McCain by phone. “He is erratic. He is hotheaded. He loses his temper and he worries me.”

McCain’s run-ins with other Republican senators are legendary…

I’m more concerned about McCain’s liberalism, frankly, than his temper. As the Captain notes, he does not evoke confidence regarding potential Supreme Court nominations – and if he ain’t good for that he ain’t good for much.

In case there was still any question of the best of the Web, I hold out the NVTH blogroll as fertile fields, fertile fields indeed.

Cheetah the chimp is still alive. Watch the video.

(Waiting for your take on this, Ed.)

This is revealing: Two major presidential endorsements were just announced.

For John McCain …. Amnesty legislation co-author Senator Mel Martinez.

For Mitt Romney …. One-man border fence Sheriff Joe Arpaio!

John “So Full Of Crap My Eyes Are Brown” McCain has once and for all revealed who is the real “liar” regarding his record on illegal immigration. (Hint: It’s John McCain):

Does John McCain agree that they should always “think ‘Mexico first?’” That’s the man who began serving as John McCain’s “Hispanic Outreach Directo” last year. Is there any reason that anyone should think open borders fanatic Dr. Hernandez wants President McCain to secure the border? Is there any reason that anyone should trust a man to secure the border if he is getting his “Hispanic Outreach” advice from Dr. Juan Hernandez?

(Check out all of the Hot Air links, by the way.)

Be sure also to watch this video of last year’s debate between Hernandez and Eagle Forum’s Jessica Echard. With widespread distribution this should be the final nail for John McCain.

An important new article is posted at City Journal:

Former mechanic Anderson felt the effects of low-wage immigrant competition in his old line of work. “I used to sell parts to body shops, and I knew Americans who were making $20 an hour repairing dented fenders,” he says. “Now, 95 percent of South Central L.A. body-shop jobs are held by recent immigrants making $7 or $8 an hour.” Says Joe Hicks, former chair of Los Angeles’s Human Relations Commission and now head of the nonprofit Community Advocates: “It’s hard to find a black face on a construction site or in a fast-food restaurant around here any more. People from the black community have noticed.”

Read it all. It’s a big article which covers economic and political competition, Hispanic racism, and the growing trend of black citizens waking up to the garden path their leaders have been trying to lead them down.

Duncan Hunter endorses the Huckster.

And yes, that faint popping sound you just heard was my head exploding.

There are 17 candidates out there. Of that group we have two viable Democrats and four Republicans. Below is a link from ABC that asks some loaded questions and tells you who’s views match up with your own. According to ABC at least.

At this point we as conservatives must realize our choices will be the Democrat dressed up as a Republican or the Socialist dressed up as a Democrat. The question will be is it smarter in the long run to stay home for a cycle, or, do we need to go out an vote against someone. It has been years since I voted for someone.
