Senator McCain has been campaigning that he is against earmarks and pork in legislation. However, from his vote and support on the bailout bill (H.R. 1464), he certainly didn’t have a problem with them. Here is a list of the pork in this bill: New Tax earmarks in Bailout bill – Film and Television Productions [...]
Senator John McCain has made his selection for vice-presidential running mate, Governor Sarah Palin (Alaska). I had heard her name in the mix for several months now, and I think it was McCain’s best decision. He chose a running mate I can get excited about. I just wish I could say the same for him! [...]
Sources are saying that John McCain is ready to reveal his choice of Vice-Presidential running mate this week. Sources close to Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign are suggesting he will reveal the name of his vice presidential selection this week while Sen. Barack Obama is getting the headlines on his foreign trip. The name of [...]
According to the International Herald Tribune, John McCain is scheduled to meet with potential Vice-Presidential picks on Friday at his home in Arizona. The two governors, Charlie Crist, of Florida, and Bobby Jindal, of Louisiana, have both accepted invitations to meet with McCain at his home in Arizona, according to Republican familiars with the decision. [...]
John McCain has proposed to suspend the federal gas tax for the summer, as well as some other tax cuts. To help people weather the downturn immediately, McCain urged Congress to institute a “gas-tax holiday” by suspending the 18.4 cent federal gas tax and 24.4 cent diesel tax from Memorial Day to Labor Day. By [...]
A recent Gallup poll shows that the Democrats’ heated battle will hurt them in the General Election against John McCain. But only 59% of Democratic voters who support Clinton say they would vote for Obama against McCain, while 28% say they would vote for the Republican McCain. This suggests that some Clinton supporters are so [...]
As I mentioned HERE, I thought last night was a time when Mike Huckabee needed actual victories rather than just moral victories. I think he certainly got a moral victory in Virginia making a close contest out of what had been a blowout in the polls not very long ago. However, John McCain once again [...]
By a count of 2.5 to 1 (60% – 24%), Mike Huckabee has beaten John McCain in Kansas. This was the first contest after Romney announced his withdrawal from the GOP race. Huckabee, a long shot, has certainly started on the right foot. It will be interesting to watch the results through Tuesday to see if [...]
Well, it has certainly been an interesting week. It was interesting to hear that Mitt Romney was dropping out of the race on my way home on Thursday afternoon. After all the money he spent, I thought he would be in at least until McCain had sealed the nomination. So where does that leave us? [...]
As I look at this evening’s Florida results I am highly disturbed that John “I was in Vietnam” McCain won the primary. Now word is that Rudy Giuliani is going to withdraw and support McCain. This is awful news for conservatives. Clearly McCain’s lies about Mitt Romney’s support for timetables in Iraq worked for him. [...]
