Reader comments


U.S. Sen. John McCain issued a statement yesterday about the New Hampshire Union Leader's endorsement of him.

"I am honored to receive the endorsement of the New Hampshire Union Leader, the only statewide newspaper in the Granite State. It is yet another indication that I have the momentum to win the first-in-the-nation primary," the Republican presidential candidate wrote. "New Hampshire voters deserve straight talk, and it is a privilege to answer their questions in living rooms and town hall meetings across the state.

"I alone have the experience, knowledge and judgment to lead as commander in chief from day one, and my candidacy will rally the Reagan coalition to win a great victory next November."

YOUR COMMENTS


John McCain has never been 'more of the same.' He takes heat from both parties and many voters because he doesn't compartmentalize into their platform of ideas neatly. If I want independence, integrity and experience, I'll vote for McCain. If I want canned answers or opinions that result from polls, not principle, I'll vote for any of several of the other candidates. I am quite astounded myself that most Americans can't see that Senator McCain is by far the best candidate to lead this country forward.

A vote for John McCain is a vote for more of the same from Washington. I wish more of my countrymen were inclined to understand this and payed more attention to politics. Frankly, I am still astounded that most Americans cant tell the difference between
Demagoguery and Honesty.
