I think the solution is not to bash McCain so much as to endorse his opposition, JD Hayworth -- not SOS, of course.

Like most Republicans elected in the 1994 landslide, Hayworth was an ardent conservative. He has said he believes border security and interior enforcement of immigration laws are the solutions — not a temporary worker program as proposed by President George W. Bush for Mexican illegal aliens.

In January 2006, Regnery published Whatever It Takes: Illegal Immigration, Border Security, and the War on Terror, a book by Hayworth and his chief of staff, Joseph J. Eule. He sold less than 1000 copies of the book and it was considered a financial flop by the publisher. In the book, Hayworth said that Bush is too close to GOP contributors from the agribusiness, meat packing and construction industries, who he calls "addicted" to a steady stream of workers from Mexico and Central America to keep wages down. Hayworth also argues that current immigration law misinterprets the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, says that a child of undocumented immigrants born in the U.S. should not be given U.S. citizenship, and advocates the "Americanization" program Henry Ford advocated in an interview with the New York Times in 1914.[3]

The ever-so-successful process that used to be called "Americanization" was a major movement in the early 1900s … Henry Ford, a leader in this movement, said, "These men of many nations must be taught American ways, the English language, and the right way to live." Talk like that today and our liberal elites will brand you a cultural imperialist, or worse. But if you ask me, Ford had a better idea. Most of his ideas are remembrance of the "Know nothing party" from the early 19th Century in which ALL immigrants were considered evil.
(from Whatever It Takes)

....
Although I don't think Henry Ford had anything useful to say about the integrity of the United States or immigration or what it means to be an "American". And I don't think Henry Ford had anything to do with the "Know nothings".

Well, she is cooking her own goose when she decided to endorce McCain. She actually had a huge following, but that was a stupid move.. McCain needs to retire. Hayworth needs to get back into Politics and clean out the scumbags.

Also, McCain has a liberal lunatic for a daughter.. what an airheaded nut job socialist she is..

Sad to say I think her star may have crested. I know I am disappointed in some things that I won't elaborate on now.

I don't think she was electable at the time she was still running and Governor.

It has been my observation that the right wing, Republican conservatives are too right wing and too conservative to draw enough votes to get elected. Take JD Hayworth for example. He lost.

One of the main problems is that conservatives try to appeal to the broad spectrum, do and say things that appeal to the middle and left as well as the pro-immigration, open borders, amnesty crowd. They seem to be willing to take the risk of alienating their base to get more liberal votes.

I'm receiving E-mails from friends who were fans of Sarah but that are bad mouthing her and turning their backs on her since she has recently made some statements that they don't like.

If the present administration keeps on with its present trajectory then in 2012 more people like Scott Brown will have a better chance. Time will tell. I think Obama is in a head lock and the left with the unions will keep him there. I predict that he won't change.
