14. I beg to differ. Nobody "liked" Nixon. And Humphrey came very close to defeating him.

28. I know lots of people who liked Nixon
infact many still do and I'm talking moderate reTHUGS. Don't assume the likability or unlikability of anyone.

7. i know, but
i'm watching the approval chart of cnn's web site. the crowd is booing mccain. which is fine with me, mccain's harder to beat. still beatable, but it'd be harder then spanking mittney.

29. We can talk about republicans.
We just don't say flattering things.

Welcome to DU, Hill :hi:

Just be warned that it is going to be really rough and tumble here until about a week after the nominee is selected.

5. He got zero delegates in Florida and South Carolina
I think he is done. And the corporate media loves McLame far to much to let him lose.

McCain's momentum.

11. Don't flame me but I find Mitt MUCH more likeable....
I use to respect McCain a lot more... He was abused here in SC in 2000... and now IMHO has become the abuser with his lies about Mitt...

34. If you'd had him as your governor for 4 years, you'd hate his guts
Most of the state of Massachusetts despises Mittens. And I suspect the feeling is mutual.

Religion has nothing to do with it. The guy lies ALL THE TIME. I can hardly find a time he has told the truth.

15. McCain is an absolute boob.....
utterly clueless. He really worries me. This is the first GOP debate I've watched, and I'm struck at how unpresidential McCain is.

31. Which one is less despicable: McCain or Romney
I am more than fine with both Hillary and Obama. Given that, I
would probably vote in the republican primary so as to vote
for a less "bush-like" republican candidate -- in
case unfortunately he ends up being president. I lean towards
Romney. 

Wanted to know between McCain and Romney which one is more
acceptable to democrats; and why?
I have not followed Romney much, nor republican debates. What
are the negatives about Romney? I cannot stand social
conservatives. I think and hope Romney is not. I am ok with
economic conservatism to a degree. I get tuned off by McCain's
Iraq policy, bush-licking, immigration policy and
maverick-ism. I like Romney's business credentials and
CEO-like approach to president's job.

32. Mitt Romney: the 2008 GOP sacrificial lamb
he is a real conservative, McCain is a calculated fraud who thinks just because he tried to follow in his dad and grandpas military service because he coulnd't even do well at USNA, he would be a good president. He would be horrendous, but moreso even for his own party in Congress, tho good in the election. Mitt Romney will get the wingnuts together, which would be great because Hillary AND Obama have military edge on Romney. We'd also have the fact we're against Bush more than he is, despite his "outsider" status. Not to mention he didn't even run for reelection cuz he woulda lost.

37. It's hilarious how McCain does that condescending laugh of his at Romney
Check out the last part of this video where McCain laughs right in Romney's face. That asshole Romney didn't know what hit him.
