John McCain reminds us all why he has no clout within the GOP

On ABC's Sunday show,  This Week,  John McCain had this to say,  “I think it’s important to have talks wherever you can.   We have to have an outcome on the battlefield that would motivate a successful conclusion to those talks.”

Understand this: the reason TEA party patriots demonstrably opposed (2006, 2008) the growing political compromise that was the Grand Old Party of the past,  is illustrated in the McCain statement,  above.  Most of us know that you do not  "talk"  to the enemy as you unilaterally disarm and open military prisons for the release of those who have killed our own soldiers.  When John McCain made this statement,  he reminded many of us that he and Obama are headed in much  the same direction,  the biggest difference being that Obama plans on getting "there" much sooner than McCain.  

What is striking about the McCain statement is this: the statement is actually one that works,  McCain stressing "talks" in the context of  battlefield success, yet,  in the domestic context that is  the Obama Administration,  it came off sounding supportive of Obama's efforts.  In fact,  that was the context of the question McCain answered:  "Obama is doing this,  do you agree" (or words to that effect) and we have the McCain response.  

I am all for compromise,  but not the brand of compromise that comes from the likes of John McCain.  Why he continues to make public statements as if he was somebody,  is beyond me.  The only way to deal with this man,  since the so-called "conservatives" of Arizona will not,  is to take his power away from from by ignoring him.  

Point of post:  the conservative revolution went into high gear with the nomination of John McCain.  We need not forget that he is the reason for season,  even more so than is Barack Hussein Obama.
