Hugh Hewitt just claimed that John McCain may be considering not supporting the GOP nominee:

Now the key question is whether Senator McCain will stay in the party and support its nominee, a question which hasn’t been asked of him (or Tom Tancredo)and which should be, again and again until it gets a straight answer.

Ummmm. Isn’t Hewitt a shill and hagiographer for Mitt Romney, who wasn’t for Reagan, wasn’t for the Contract with Americavoted for Tsongas, and raised money for Democrats? Just watch the YouTubes:


Maybe Hugh should be attacking the loyalty of his own candidate, who actually, has a record of disloyalty. Or maybe Hugh is just sore that he has to spend all of his time defending a principleless flip-flopper, who has flip-flopped on abortion, gay-rights, taxes, guns, embryonic stem-cell research, Ronald Reagan, the Contract with America, his draft-dodging, education, immigration, and campaign finance-reform.

Hugh needs to just become a campaign staffer. That’s what he’s doing. He just doesn’t have the honesty to admit it.

What’s Hugh Hewitt going to do if McCain actually gets the nomination? He’s placed himself out there in Limbaugh land, where, he’ll look like the world’s biggest weasel if he supports McCain after everything he’s said about the man, or like an irrelevant boob if he spurns the GOP’s top hawk and presidential nominee. Blind hatred and demagoguery never end well if you end up on the wrong side of an historical trend.

Are you openly supporting McCain or is this blog supposed to be neutral and you are just using it as a shill for him?

I am mostly offended by the dishonesty of the Romney campaign and its supporters.

If the election were today, I would probably vote for McCain. But I am open to be swayed by Giuliani or Thompson.

You are right about Romney. No matter the facts, somehow they spin, twist and distort his record.

Romney is a weasel. Worse Romney has softly played the “mormon thing” to try to turn attention away from his weaselyness

Romney however is 200X better then McCain… which is just really sad

McCain is an angrier, drier Dole 96. Way to pick ’em.
