-Caveat Lector- <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/"> </A> -Cui Bono?- Sticking with Bush, GOP will lose it all; McCain could give them victory By Jay Severin MSNBC CONTRIBUTOR March 6 — For Democrats, Super Tuesday is a mere formality: crowning Al Gore, the inevitable nominee. But for Republicans, this could be Suicide Tuesday. ATTENTION REPUBLICANS: The key to success in American politics is balancing ideology with winning elections. Thus, the idea is to find a candidate who: Agrees with you on most issues Can get elected. This is Politics 101. John McCain is a candidate who: Agrees with Republicans on most issues. Can get elected — but the polls suggest Republicans are about to reject him. LANDSLIDE OR SUICIDE? If John McCain is effectively out of this race on Tuesday, on Wednesday we will be able to say this is the biggest and most tragic mass suicide ever since a bunch of equally confused true believers laced on identical sneakers and followed cult leader Doe to a “a better place.” John McCain as the nominee means that in the general election the Republican party will attract all GOP voters, almost all new voters, the vast majority of independent voters and about 20 percent of Democrat voters. John McCain is a lock to take the GOP to the Promised Land. George Bush will lose to Al Gore, and the GOP will go down in flames, crippled for a generation or more. It means perhaps the biggest landslide and biggest mandate in modern American history. A McCain victory means the Democratic party would be decimated — a marginalized caucus of minorities, trade unionists, and some Birkenstock-shod liberals on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. A McCain victory also means the likelihood of Republicans becoming the dominant political party and philosophy for the next 30 years or more. A McCain victory means a conservative U.S. Supreme Court, federal bench, and Republican control of the House, the Senate and the White House. In short, a McCain victory would deliver Republicans everything for which they could conceivably wish — and totally vanquish the enemy. STICKING WITH A LOSER No thanks: we’ll take Bush, Republicans appear poised to proclaim. George W. Bush, who thus far cannot attract the vote of anybody who isn’t an older, overweight, conservative white man named Chuck. George W. Bush, who mortgaged his status as a political centrist to make a deal with bigots to win Southern votes. George W. Bush, whose attempts to complete a thought or a sentence offer all the gruesome excitement of a bungee jump. George W. Bush, who put the “Duh” in W. George W. Bush in a long national campaign? Debating Al Gore? Winning non-Republican votes? Good luck. At here is the necessary question: Do the Republican politicians (all of them) supporting Bush actually believe he can win — or are they, lemming like, marching to doom with a fellow member of their tired party establishment, in order to “save” it from a reformer? A RARE OPPORTUNITY Yes, GOP: Join hands and jump off the cliff. You are going to a better place. It’s called the Gore Administration. The gods do not frequently offer opportunity such as the Republicans have at this moment: John McCain has a lock on taking them to the Promised Land. George Bush will lose to Al Gore, and the GOP will go down in flames, crippled for a generation or more. Which is it — sad or funny — that the party that fell in love at first sight with a so-called winner is on the verge of denying the biggest winner they have ever had? But Republicans evidently do not wish to be confused with facts. We’ll take Bush, thanks. We liked his father. And his mom. Oh, and the media like McCain. So do non- Republicans. There must be something wrong with him. Anyway, any Republican can beat Al Gore. Yes, Republicans: Go ahead, join hands and jump off the cliff. You are going to a better place. And the name of that place is the Gore Administration. Jay Severin hosts a call-in show on 96.9 FM-TALK in Boston.
