I see plenty of his future voters...

The difference is that Keyes is a heck of a man....great speaker and speaks from the heart. Don't always agree with him but at least he's not a nutcase like Sharpton.

Just ask Al Sharpton. He knows

No doubt due to some "vast Right Wing Conspiracy."

I totally agree. He was my favorite Republican in the last primaries. It was kind of disheartening to see the primary election go to Bush. Out of the 14 Republican hopefuls, he was not in my top 10. And the mainstream press kept telling us "frontrunner George W. Bush" blah blah blah starting in late 1999.

I was a McCain supporter right up until the end. Not sure I would support him again, he seems to have lurched to the left and is buddying up with the likes of Lieberman too much for my taste. Still a good man and a hero, just not sure I would vote for him again.

correct me if i am wrong, but i believe he was there mainly to record a short speech for television cameras...they do that all the time in congress...empty or near-empty chamber but several reps. wait around so they can record a few sound bites in front of c-span
