I will too..but that seem unlikely.. but I still believe in miracles :).... It appears that all the "talking heads" are coming out of the woodworks to make sure that does not happen.. but its not over yet..

I hope conservatives will ignore them, and support Huckabee.
me too
I am a huge Duncan Hunter supporter. I just hope we stay practical and pragmatic. Even with McCain. Thank you for your service to our country.
:)
Duncan Hunter is a Conservative but he couldn’t even run his OWN campaign. Besides, he always looks angry - pissed off. No wonder nobody took him seriously.
sorry.... that’s not gonna fly with me either... I got on board with Hunter very early in the game when I became convinced he was the BEST qualified candidate in the race... go back and read some of the FR threads.. not a single post from anyone disagreeing with him on ANY of the issues just a bunch of bogus “he can’t win” rhetoric...
That will be fine if you want to have 2-3 liberal supreme court judges put in place for the next 40 years.
Not true. The two most likely to leave are liberals. At worst we will have the same Supreme Court we have now.
Oh, so cave and accept the worse - spoken as a true conservative.
So, apparently you don’t see any need to vote conservative because it might disrupt your comfort level of the status quo.
Give me a conservative to vote for and the person will have my vote. As I can see, that is not happening this election. McCain is Democratic light, Hillary is Democrat Regular, and Obama is socialist if not worse.
“he always looks angry “
Obviously, you haven’t been paying attention.
BEFORE you vote, please start paying attention, and do some research.
VOTE CONSERVATIVE IN THE CONGRESSIONAL RACES... PUT the HildaBEAST in the WhiteHouse for 4 years so that the POWER SHIFT will lean more towards the congress NOT the WhiteHouse..
Amen.
A vote for the Donk will result in a belief that the GOP lost because they weren’t far enough to the left.
I’m going to vote today in our primary, and probably will not vote for McCain. I may write someone in, or simply leave it undecided.
However, if McCain is the nominee, then I will vote for him in the general, and here’s why: We not only have a moral responsibility to promote conservatism where ever we can, but we also have a moral responsibility to DEFEAT the Democrat party and liberalism where ever we can.
To vote FOR the Democrat party candidate is obviously antithetical to the above axiom. I certainly hope you and others aren’t taking this stance simply because the toothpick (I mean Ann Coulter) said the same thing. Ann Coulter said what she said to get attention; she really doesn’t care about conservatism and especially doesn’t care about DEFEATING liberalism. This much should be obvious. And it should be obvious that voting for the Dem candidate “out of spite” (because that’s what that would be) would be surrendering to the cause of liberalism.
Is McCain even my FIFTH choice? No. Of course not. There aren’t any arguments (except those borne out of, what I like to call, “single issue stress”, or SIS) that make any sense that say “McCain is the same as Hillary”. He’s not.
Can one show me similarities between him and Hillary? I’ll bet you can. But similarity does not equal identity, this is a mathematical axiom, and it’s an axiom we all should remember when voting in the general. No one likes that, ONCE AGAIN, we are forced to choose between the lesser of two evils. But we had plenty of nicely conservative candidates in the beginning of the race; we have no one to blame but OURSELVES for the mess we’re in.
So, behaving like a petulant child and saying, “I’m going to let Hillary/Obama win” or, even worse, “I’m going to vote FOR the GREATER of two evils” is being IRRESPONSIBLE, if not MORALLY REPREHENSIBLE.
It’s time to all hold hands and say “President Hussein”.....
sorry can't do it.. DEFEAT Democrats in 2012... PROMOTE conservatism by opposing McCain... and supporting conservatives in the CONGRESS for 2008... NOT A PENNY TO THE RNC in 08'
I did just that with my primary vote, it was in Illinois however so it was hardly noticed.
Oh come on, McCain has it.
We know those who are voting for Huckabee are protest votes against McCain.
Its time to just forget what McCain did against Bush and move on.
