Is John Mc Cain worthy of my consideration as a presidential candidate?

The latter. Vote for Gore. He should have won, anyway. GW's brother Jeb had other plans in Dade County Florida.

Why not wait until the answer to "Who is running?" is obvious before choosing? If there is someone you know you want, you can encourage them. Sen. Obama said no at first, but many people encouraged him. Otherwise, wait for the primaries.

On the face of it, yes, he appears to have sold out completely to the forces of darkness. But given the respect I've always had for the man (including casting my vote for him in the 2000 Maryland Republican Primary, which as a registered Independent I was allowed to vote on), I like to believe he is doing all this to secure the nomination but will then return to form as a presidential candidate. Yeah, I know it sounds like wishful thinking but the alternative is too painful to accept. McCain has long been one of the few republicans I had any respect for and it's sickening to think he's actually become one of "them."

Because he seems to be a stand up guy.  He is a Veitnam vet who was shot down and taken prisoner.  His dad at the time was a navy admiral and the Vietamese were going to release him, but he stayed because he did not want special treatment.  So his character alone makes him a likable fella.\n\nHis biggest stance is on campaign reform.  He believes that limiting the amount of money anyone can contribute that it will lower the influence of special intrest in the government.\n\nSome of his policies I don't agree with, but he does show he can work with democrats and can bridge the parties.  He is not 100% partisan.\n\nI'm a democrat as well and I find myself liking McCain.  Not sure if he will get my vote though, depends on who the democrats can put up there.

That depends on the other nominees. I don't think he'd be such a bad choice, though.

Sure, I guess I would vote for the other parties candidate.  Never say never.  But if I were to pick somebody I would really want to run in the 2008 election it would be McCain.  He is the most likely Republican to win the primaries and lose to a Democrat.

I think he would be a good choice, but in the Free Press they are reporting that he is not interested...if his heart isn't 100% in it, then I wouldn't sell him on the job.

I voted for him both times.  I'd probably vote for him again. Have to wait and see what my options are.

There are a number of controversial propositions that need attention.  I hope to defeat some and support some.  I also want to give my vote to some worthy candidates.\n\nWhat did you hope to accomplish with your vote?

Absoultely.  He has a good record.  Hes a decent human being and has done nothing to prove otherwise.

I am not sure you are any longer interested in this, since the election results are out. For detailed reports, you need to check the reports his campaign filed with election commission.\n\ncc

Philosophically, I'm a diehard democrat.  However, if McCain ran as the President, I would vote for him.  Probably regardless of who his running mate is.\nWhy?  Because John McCain is one of the few politicians (and the only one at the national level) whom I believe when he speaks.  I don't always agree with his ideas; frequently, I disagree; however, when he speaks, I don't feel like he's pandering to this special interest or speaking because of results of a focus group.  He has bucked both parties at various times, but is also willing to work with people on both sides of an issue.  The man, whether you like his plans or not (and he's one of the more moderate Republicans out there), appears to have ALWAYS been honest AND to avoid the dirty campaining prevelent within both parties (remember the mudbath Bush gave him in 2000)?.\nTo me, integrity means a lot more than agreeing on every single issue out there.\nI don't like Rudy Giuliani, though.  If he ran for President, I wouldn't vote for him.  Being from NY, I will grant that he had many successes.  But his dishonesty sticks with me.  If I remember correctly, he's on his third marriage, this one to his former mistress.   Doesn't sit well with me, along with the whole Brooklyn Museum controversy (1st amendment rights, anyone?) and Farmersville Garbage debacle...if you say something, you need to mean it.

This site does make for some interesting reading, he has some good stands even on the things that I would disagree with him on.  The most important thing that a campaign of this type could do for this country is actually educate the voters on Special Interest and the money it spends to gain for their interest which is not always ours.  Every few years you need someone to come along and shake things up a bit.  He could do it, he is a well known face and name and that is half the battle in politics.

I value a candidate who cares about benefitting the nation as opposed to being a religious zealot.  Often times, it seems the religious zealots are too busy worrying about "values" as opposed to dealing with internal issues and foreign relations, etc.

Oh how I *wish* I lived in your county (I live just across the bay) so I could vote against Pombo!\n\n#7 in Rolling Stone's list of "10 Worst Congressmen."  That's some accomplishment!  (See source.)\n\nIt's going to be neck-and-neck with Jerry McNerney.  (I've checked him out, and McNerney is a good guy.)  Get out the vote, my friend!

Yes, I am definitely interested in seeing him run!!  That way another Republican is sure to be elected!!

I certainly think he would have made an interesting President.  He is obviously very intelligent, and believes in a path to help the USA.  I think he speaks his mind too much to be a viable candidate, but I would vote for him in a heartbeat.
