Can McCain...
Save the GOP?
One of the biggest challenges facing the GOP is the total destruction of the parties credibility on core issues like limited govermnet, fiscal responsibility and even their hawkishness on national defense. The hijacking of the party the Bush-Conservatives and the preeminance of false profets like Jamesdobson as well as cheerleeding by the Hannities, Limbaughs and Coulters have moved the party so far into the corner, that not even Ronald Reagan would be considered a conservative by these folks.
But that's the opportunity for John McCain isn't it? Not indebted to these fringe groups he could move the party back to the middle. I mean if these other groups were so powerful, were's Guiliani? Romney? It'd be nice to have a GOP candidate not beholden to these people.
