We voted yesterday in AZ and voted for McCain. I voted against him in the primary and was strongly considering voting for the Dem as punishment until I saw his opponent's negative ad which accused McCain of supporting Trump sixty times.

That's when I realized that if Trump wins, McCain will go along with him some of the time, but if the Dem wins, she will go against Trump all of the time.

And if God forbid, Hillary wins a Dem congress will make things go from terrible to Obama level destruction.

I'm also in AZ and finding this one of the most difficult votes I've ever been asked to make. I ENTHUSIASTICALLY support Donald Trump and can't wait to vote for him (two votes when you count my wife who is just as enthusiastic).

But voting for McCain just sticks in my craw. I am a Vietnam veteran and ironically served on the same ship in which McCain crashed his aircraft and was captured, the USS Oriskany. He came aboard in 1967, I arrived in 1968.

If anyone takes the time to seriously research McCain, they will learn why his fellow offficers nicknamed him "songbird," but that's the stuff of another post.

Like you, I will probably hold my nose and vote for McCain as the lesser of two very large evils. I feel totally betrayed having to cast such a vote. I wish Donald Trump had endorsed Kelli Ward in the primary, and I wish Kelli Ward had been quicker to endorse Trump, but that's all water over the dam at this point. Sometimes it sucks to be Republican.
