McCain widens dialogue on LIBERAL blogs…another reason why I won’t vote for his tired ass!
(article Link) Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign is trying to tap a new audience of potential voters by taking his campaign message straight to liberal and nonpolitical issues-based blogs, which reach millions of readers but don’t often delve into conservative politics.The strategy was in full swing yesterday when Mr. McCain invited non-conservative bloggers to join his regular blogger conference call, just hours after he delivered a major speech previewing his war strategy and other priorities for a first presidential term.
It already has started a war among liberal bloggers over how to react to Mr. McCain’s overture.
In answering the first question on the call, Mr. McCain said his likely Democratic opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, lacks the judgment to be commander in chief, which set him up for a bruising from the readers at TalkingPointsMemo.com, a liberal-leaning site that joined in the call.
Blogger Greg Sargent said it amounted to “what may be [Mr. McCain’s] most direct attack yet on Barack Obama’s national security credentials.” But commenters were split: Some took aim at Mr. McCain, some said they were thankful for the intelligence on “what the enemy is planning,” and others lashed out at Mr. Sargent, saying he should have been harsher in evaluating Mr. McCain’s attack.
“This IS a Democratic blog, and as such, it would seem to me that there SHOULD be SOME bias with regards to how YOU report of McCain’s craziness, as opposed to treating his ranting and attacks with a sort of dignity they and he DO NOT deserve,” wrote one emphasis-abundant reader.
Mr. McCain’s campaign said the Web outreach is a logical extension of an attempt to reach voters beyond his base. It also builds on his successful use of conference calls with conservative bloggers during the Republican primary, which blunted many of the harshest criticisms of the senator.
“The plan is to take the work we’ve already built on with conservative bloggers and to open up a dialogue with non-conservative bloggers and even nonpolitical bloggers,” said Patrick Hynes, Mr. McCain’s point man for blog outreach.

John McCain makes my decision not to vote for him easier by the day. It is clear that he does not give a shit about what us conservative types think about him. He is perfectly willing to reach out to idiot liberals and is banking on their support of him.
He figures there are enough white people out there who will refuse to vote for a Negro so he wants to make himself more appealing to leftists by kissing their collective asses on issues near and dear to their hearts.
As far as I’m concerned, this election cycle is over, the liberals have won, the country will be theirs for at least the next four years. I am content to just sit back relax and watch as liberalism erodes the country.
Why should I give a shit, Mexicans won’t be coming in a snatching my job or Mrs. Snoop’s. I don’t have long commutes to work, so I don’t give a shit about gas prices. I’m not rich so money will not be snatched out of my grubby hands.
Jobs will be lost because of global warming alarmist idiot ass legislation; terrorism will no doubt find our shores again, capitalism will grind to a halt and the legions of moronic Democrats around the country who bitched and moaned about the years under G Dub will struggle to come up with answers as to why the country will go in the toilet because they will have nobody to blame.
For the first time in my adult life I will get to witness complete liberal dominance of the American political system. The country will no doubt survive. Conservatives like myself will not drown ourselves in sorrow and mental anguish because the political pendulum did not swing our way.
We just need to remain positive and be ready to pick up the pieces when liberalism and the Democrats fail.

Do you remember after Bush won, AGAIN, how many of our liberal friends were almost suicidal? What do you want to bet they’re hoping that’s how you’ll be if the next vote goes their way (which given McCain’s propsensities, is 100% likely - but they won’t see it that way) and a Democrat wins the White House? It will do them good to see how well you handle their winning this time. It was really pretty pathetic to see how whiney they all got when the majority of the electorate did not agree with them.
And I sure hope the country can survive 4 years of having its capitalistic underpinnings systematically and deliberately dismanteled….by a lot of social science engineers who want to make everyone (but them) share everything with everyone.

The United States will survive 4 years of these idiots at the helm, of that I have no doubt. Like you guys, I am in the envious position of being not rich enough to be a revenue mark, and not poor enough to need any assistance from .gov. I have a good job that I am close to, and I can pay the bills without having to work OT. I suspect there are a lot more like us who will just sit it out, and watch what happens to be ready in 2012.
