McCain will never convince the conservative base (or at least enough to win an election) because of these issues:

1. McCain-Kennedy Immigration Amnesty Bill
2. McCain-Feingold Anti-First Amendment Bill
3. Gun Grabbing history
4. Gang of 14

6. Homosexual marriage/civil unions
7. Embryonic Stem Cell research
8. His 2000 outburst toward the Christian Right
9. His Giuliani-esque philandering while married
10. His hot uncontrollable filthy-mouth temper
