Anybody but McCain

Dear editor:

I have to come out of "retirement" whether I want to or not. There's too much at stake.

When 19 candidates initially declared for the White House, I thought that perhaps for once, it might not come down to the "lesser of 2 evils." Yeah, right.

The mainstream media has once again made sure that we only see the names that THEY want us to see, depending on our blind obedience to vote for THEIR candidates. They hide, ignore and bury any good guys there might be, until THEIR candidates become a subliminal message in our minds.

Shilling for the front runners, they've denied Ron Paul access, much like what Detroit did with Preston Tucker. Likewise, Mike Huckabee is a serious threat to Washington's bureaucracy as well, so he's being pared down to an "honorable mention."

I am speaking now to the Republicans out there. Remember 1992? Ross Perot pulled enough votes from Bush Sr,, to hand Clinton the presidency, with just 43 percent, but in a 3-man race, it was enough. Today, Huckabee represents conservative values better than his two opponents, and while he is being pushed away by the press, he can still take enough votes away from Romney to give McCain the nomination.

I favor Paul and Huckabee over ANYBODY out there.

Reality check, it's not going to happen, but a very vital Plan B, is to deny McCain the nomination and support Romney.

Listen to me guys, I lived in Apache Junction, Ariz., from 1996 until my return to Idaho in 2004. You Limbaugh and Streeter types out there can wave the flag and rally around our "POW hero," but I lived down there for eight years under his regime and I know John McCain for what he is. He is the best Republican the Democrats ever had.

The McCain/Feingold Act is a direct attack on our 1st Amendment rights. He worked with Ted Kennedy on a bill to grant amnesty for illegals. He favors putting still MORE troops in Bush's ill-run Iraq war, and he tried to get gun shows closed down in Arizona. Hunters and shooters all over the state got petitions signed and rallies going to unseat McCain in a statewide recall, but he was saved by 9/11. Everything stopped, we all got behind Knucklehead Jr. and the movement to unseat McCain died off.

I am proud to have participated in a huge anti-McCain rally in Phoenix, and still have my "Recall McCain" button, if anybody would like to see it!

John McCain is NOT one of us.

If he gets the GOP nomination, you might as well not bother going to the polls, because in November, it will be one liberal Democrat against the other. If McCain is the chosen boy of the GOP, there will be virtually no one to vote for. We are in deep trouble.

Romney is not the best we can do, but he's the least of the "4 evils."
