Talk about a masterpiece of a demogogic.  And I heard it from an ordinary, vanilla conservative supporter of McCain’s, no less.  It’s just another sign of the Master Maverick’s brilliance, and I’ll explain it to you now because his genius is worthy of some recognition.

In the world according to this empty piece of rhetoric, we conservatives are solely to blame for McCain’s nomination, and therefore must make amends by voting him into office.  The fact someone would choose to use such a blatant liberal soundbite on his own philosophical companions in the first place is unbelievable enough.  Once you add the complete indefensibility of the reasoning, you get a golden piece of illogic that could not have been produced without the tireless maverick leadership of the Master Maverick, John McCain.

Of course, the ordinary, vanilla conservatives will swallow this whole, and not even consider that

• The Master Maverick, John McCain is responsible for his own judgement and positions, and their indefensibility if someone sees them that way.
• The Master Maverick, John McCain is responsible for his own behavior.
• The Republican Party is a private organization that can choose its associations, and could have done something about him without conservatives a long time ago, had they the spine.  I’ll refer you to Liebermann and the Democrats as an example of this.
• The Republican Party could have brought their own primary process under control sooner but didn’t, resulting in a nominee chosen by their POLITICAL OPPOSITION.  Conservatives had absolutely no control whatsoever over the scheduling of the Republican primary process.  In fact, the Republicans have grown contrary enough to ignore us out of sheer spite even if we did.
• The other candidates might have made better decisions regarding their own campaigns, but didn’t.
• The other candidates are responsible for fostering and growing their own support, instead of being the giant pool of unacceptability that they were.
• Even if the supposition is true, voting McCain into office compounds the fault, not redeems it.  This exercise in disjointed logic would be like saying “We’re responsible for the accidental release of ebola.  Now we must redeem ourselves by insuring everyone catches it.”

Take all of this into account, and you can see this for the giant, worthless guilt trip that it is.  It’s another good reason you should become a happy maverick McCain supporter like me, instead of a reluctant ordinary one choking back bile.  If his own ordinary, vanilla supporters, reluctant or not, have to revert to cheap tactics like this, you’ll be happier as a maverick one.

Seriously, this is the guy who’s been defended with the word ‘disappointment’, because his ordinary supporters think it’s a euphorism compared to his actual record.  Whereas a maverick supporter like me can see every bit of his behavior as the incomprehensibly brilliant plan that it is, and make more maverick supporters every chance I get with a smile on my face.

 Why continue to torture yourself by being an ordinary McCain supporter?  Become a maverick supporter of his today!
