McCain's Detractors

The prospect that Sen. John McCain is all but certain to emerge as the Republican presidential nominee has thrown the blowhards of ring wing talk radio - Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, and others - into a hissy fit. They deem the self-described straight talking senator as being substantially less than a true conservative. In their view, he has strayed too many times from conservative orthoxy to merit their support. But trumpeting the candidacy of the notorious flip flopper former Gov. Mitt Romney does not make a lot of sense. If McCain lacks the credentials, even less can be said of Romney.

What! Right-wing radio blowhards not making sense? I'm...I'm shocked! If the Paris Hilton of the right, Ann Coulter, isn't providing calm, thoughtful commentary, well, my world has just been turned upside down.

Yes, my world is Mars. What about it?

What was that last comment about? Anyway... No doubt the Republicans will unite and support McCain in the end. The ground is shifting for the Republicans too, but just not as dramatically as for the Dems.
