Shocking

In his withdrawal speech, Romney said:

“If I fight on in my campaign, all the way to the convention, I would forestall the launch of a national campaign and make it more likely that Senator Clinton or Obama would win. And in this time of war, I simply cannot let my campaign, be a part of aiding a surrender to terror,” Romney told the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington.”

Matthews, all wide-eyed and apparently shocked, asked a McCain supporter if his candidate agreed with that assessment.

I guess he hasn’t heard McCain say about a thousand times:

“For the first time in American political history, a candidate for president has called for surrender and raised the white flag,” McCain told reporters. “I think that’s terrible.”

The CPAC McCain kidz eventually drowned out the booing Mexican haters with big cheers when he pretty much declared war on the world. Look for Limbaugh and Hannity to kiss his ring even if McCain fails to take his advice to put Huckabee on the ticket. Their little tantrum is just a shot across the bow to St McCain and the political establishment to remember who has the wingnut microphones. They expect to lose.
