entirely socialist federocracy

Wait, I thought you said you were against this? But yet support a candidate who's voting record shows, and his statements this year related to business, medical care, free speech, immigration and the environment support his desire for socialism.

Sorry bub, our choices are terrible this year, but to throw in the towel and abandon conservatism and endorse a liberal nutcase like McCain makes a conservative with principles not be able to sleep at night... so...

There are only two rationales a "conservative" can have to support McCain:

1) They have no morals or principles, or

2) They aren't a conservative because they have no idea what that means.

The simple fact is, you can't be a conservative and support an ultra liberal like McCain.

The GOP did not receive the message of its supporters in 2006 and we can only hope they receive the message this year. The fact is, the more they move to the center, the more votes they'll lose.

I am sorry but you are the one not only throwing in the towel but hiding under a rock covering your eyes and plugging your ears. McCain is a moderate not a liberal, Obama is a Liberal with a capital ‘L’. I hate the choice we have to make this year as we have in the past couple of elections but I for damn sure am not going to abstain from voting and guarantee the socialists win. Yes McCains stance on the border and illegals irritate me, yes his McCain-Feingold pisses me off, yes other issues of his irritate me. However his stances on abortion and the courts I like, he is pro-gun, he will not cut and run from the world. Which is where I think you and other paleo-cons are at. You want to close the world into a nicely defined border where you naively believe that the world won’t harm you. Sorry but there are lot bigger issues at stake than just our southern border and MCCain-Feingold. His name is Obama, and he will destroy us. You shouldnt sit back and accept that based on some preconceived notion of principles because you will never find the perfect candidate and when you do they are completely unelectable to the masses.
