David -
I think there are good arguments for supporting and not supporting McCain in the general election. It's a matter of how low one sets one's minimum standards.
I would hope you would not throw the baby out with the bath water, the wheat out with the chaff, and give up on those who do decide they can vote for McCain.
Personally, I would not have been able to vote for Rudy or Romney in a general election, so I know how you feel, but I will for McCain.
JohnnyZ,
I am sorry to hear that you have set your “conservative” bar low enough to vote for McCain.. just remember that in doing so.. you are sending the message to the GOP that will pull the lever for ANY candidate that has “R” next to his name.. I seriously encourage you to consider the fact that IF McCain wins we are MUCH worse off than if the HildaBEAST or Obama wins.. because the Republicans in congress will feel obligated to support the “R” in the WhiteHouse.... that is a fact my FRiend..
