Are you saying that the vast majority of conservatives didn’t support McCain?

Yes.

Yes I am.

I am saying that Conservatives did not support McCain.

There are more Republicans than Democrats in many of the states McCain lost. He ran against a socialist and that still didn't keep him from losing many of the states Bush won in 2004.

McCain lost all of these states (which had previously gone at President Bush):

North Carolina

Colorado

Pennsylvania

Iowa

New Mexico

Virginia

Florida

Indiana

Nevada

Ohio

McCain had trouble raising money to the point that local races were starved so that the GOP could fun his campaign.

McCain didn't have enough campaign workers in most states.

President Map Election Results 2008 (^).

Spend a few minutes with that map, running the bar between 2004 & 2008. See all those states which were red in 2004 turn blue in 2008? Those pretty colors represent conservatives who didn't support McCain.

Conservatives did not support McCain.

Why fight the enemy when you have become them?

The National Republicans (Think East Coast Blue-Bloods) see THREE ISSUES that are hurting them on a national level:

1)The Conservative stance on Abortion

2)The conservative stance on Gays

3)Conservative opposition to Immigration

Of course, these same geniuses, I sure, would have said the same thing going into the Republican gubernatorial primary in Virginia, where social conservative Bob McDonnell emerged victorious. Yet, despite the emergence of a hardcore socially conservative college thesis, he currently maintains a comfortable lead in the polls.

And, never mind, of course, all polls in recent months show a swing in the pro-life direction with Gallup showing a majority being pro-life.

The country-club, blue-blood types are real losers are the national level.

Enlightening.

His (in my perception) inadequate shepherding of the rnc notwithstanding, I stand corrected in my belief he was flapping the way the wind blows regarding abortion, and am glad to hear he's a force for (some) good.

The GQ article is crap, based on crap, and passed around as a damaging piece of propaganda by people who know it's crap.

Crap, crap, crap, crap.

This has been totally debunked.

Thank you for Obama, Sotomayor, his communist czars and his socialist agenda. Thank you. I appreciate your help in this fight for our freedom. With allies like you, who needs enemies?

Won’t happen, the (R)s have to have a black man to offset the (D)s black man.

It’s a balance thing.

The Republican Party is absolutely useless as a vehicle for advancing conservative interests.
