Ready! Aim! Shoot Self in Foot!!

The other McCain:

Back during the 2006 pre-mortems, I argued that the Republican-led push for amnesty destroyed the enthusiasm of the conservative base. So what happened in 2007? The GOP pushed for amnesty again. And what did they do this year? Nominated Mr. Amnesty himself for president

....and as to the damnfools who yap about a "conservative" Hispanic vote?

I remember in 2006 being told over and over by certain Republicans, "But Bush got 40% of the Hispanic vote in 2004!" Right. And now explain how the continual augmentation of a bloc that votes 60% Democrat is going to create that "Permanent Republican Majority" ...

Granted, the election has not been held (nor have the lawsuits over vote-fraud been filed.) But unless there's an Event, the (R) Party poohbahs should collectively commit hara-kiri.

It's the honorable thing to do.
