Any perceived positives that RINOs offer on any front, including the economy, are illusory, because they always end up caving to and empowering the Left one way or another.
Any “conservative” credentials McCain possesses are a Potemkin Village. Just for show.
I think CFG is being soft on McCain because the standards have been so greatly lowered with the choice of candidates remaining. Do I think he's great on economic issues? Not by a long shot. Is he better than Hillary or Obama? Absolutely.
I still can't bring myself to vote for the man. But I understand people who will-- they are taking a chance that he might finally turn away from the dark side after his enemedia admirers turn on him to elect Hillary or Obama. False hope? Probably. But a drowning man will grasp at a straw.
