re: #324 realwest
McCain and Jindhal and a bunch of other “conservative” Republicans sold out Barry Goldwaters principles.
And they didn’t even get their 40 pieces of silver for doing so.
In all honesty, I thought throughout his life (and especailly in 1964) that Goldwater was one of the few truly HONEST men left in politics.
McCain and Jindal are neo-cons. I have always been a classic conservative, even before I knew what that meant. ;)
I was 5 in 1964, so I doubt I had any strong political opinions other than wanting to grow up.
