Mccain continues nosedive toward conformity

[KevinTheOmnivore]

You said farting.

Tell us then Preechr, what cabal of Republicans will meet in their dark tower and decide that McCain can't win it? What group of Republicans is really thinking about THAT right now, rather than protecting their own asses and interests???

The self-fulfilled prophecy thing might work for McCain. McCain is going to run as a fiscally conservative, tough on security Republican. He'll cut your taxes and bomb the third world. When all else fails, if you are a Republican, this is what you do.

There are a lot of factors to take into account before McCain can be crowned. There are some potential candidates, but none who are as viable as mcCain who are also taking all of the same measures he is (Giuliani is pandering to the South and campaigning in primary districts too, but he stands no chance). I think Sen. Allen will become the second most viable challenger, or even a guy like Gov. Huckabee. Brownback is the sleeper.

Either way, I don't think the GOP is united enough right now to actually stifle McCain. He is poll # gold right now, so he is being embraced by everyone. He's going to hold them to that in 2008.
