Title: A New Low for McCain
Post by: Rebel on February 06, 2008, 03:44:23 PM: Sorry motherf'er is going to use a computer-generated voice of Reagan to introduce him to the CPAC convention.

According to my source, McCain has prepared a video featuring President Ronald Reagan to make the introduction. If McCain uses this video, it is very likely to backfire badly. This is the group before which Ronald Reagan said in 1975 that, â€œA political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency or simply to swell its numbers.â€

McCain hasn't clenched this nomination just yet - we could still broker a different guy at the convention (unlikely, but it has happened in the past) and using Reagan in any way is just wrong. For any of them.

I'm sick of the Reagan comparisons. We got one Reagan and we aren't likely to get another one, especially with the career politicians we have right now.

McCain really makes me ill.
