Okay, what's this deal about McCain choosing Lieberman and promising only one term.
Where idd that come from? I heard a couple of oblique references to this yesterday. If it is true, wouldn't that be a good thing to hammer the Rs with now? I mean, would you waste your vote on someone who only plans to serve one term?

2. in his interview with politico yesterday
the "I don't know how many houses I own" one, he said that he definitely wasn't going to seek just one term. They're just fucking around with us maybe, like "sure, he's not all that great, but you would only have to deal with him for four years."

7. As somebody pointed out yesterday..
I think McConehead missed his meds yesterday, he was all over the fucking place. Of course the media barely noticed.

3. I heard loumouth idiot glenn speck mention it yesterday.
It's a supposed "honor pledge". One term to "fix" the country and turn it around.

From what? The pukes had the reigns for 8 years, they are the ones that messed it up. It's a stupid idea, and if they run with it, they will be hammered.

11. When the GOP told him to, McCain came out against his own bill.
Nothing he says matters, because he's lying.
