Awesome! McCain Aide Niccole Wallace Thanks Obama For Allowing Republicans to Support Him
Niccole Wallace, huh?
I seem to remember her name coming up a lot as people guessed about which McCain aides were trashing Sarah Palin anonymously in the press.
Obama deserves our thanks for letting Republicans root for him, as well. He has created a space within his wide net of support for those of us who fought for John McCain's candidacy by honoring the McCains at a dinner the night before his inauguration and by listening to McCain's ideas on national security, climate change, and government reform.
"And then it gets really annoying," Drew says.
This is where I get social cons getting pissed at suggestions their agenda gets de-emphasized: We ran the most Democratic Republican we could find, and we lost badly.
I'd suggest though that McCain was at least supposedly a social con, sorta, at least on abortion, but crucially he was temperamentally a liberal. He hates us and doesn't mind letting us know that. So I don't know if McCain is really proof of much, except, maybe, Don't nominate a guy to head your party who despises virtually everyone in your party.
