Each person will do what they think is best, but if Senator McCain picks a pro-abort, I can’t trust him to pick an originalist judge, either.

So you can use that logic to justify allowing Obama pick replacement(s)? UNBELIEVABLE.

P.S., I’ve been very afraid that McCain was setting us all up by what he said at Saddleback, by coming out so strong about how he would have a pro-life administration if he wins. He said it so emphatically that I can’t help he was trying to mollify pro-lifers for when he chooses a pro-choice VP. That he’s trying to make the vinegar go down more like honey. I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t trust him. He likes his maverick image, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he pulls some pro-choice VP out of the hat thinking he’ll get more independent voters. What McCain has to realize is that he will lose a bunch of blue-collar Dems too, may of whom are Catholic and pro-life, if he chooses a pro-choice VP. Why would he gamble with his one chance at the Presidency? Because McCain is a risk taker. He’s like Tom Cruise in Top Gun, a bit of a loose cannon. And because I think he likes to stick it in one’s face when he can get away with it. We shall see. Sincerely hope I’m wrong. I too got sucked in by his extraordinary and excellent performance at Saddleback. Just hope he wasn’t trying to lay the groundwork for a bad surprise further down the road, like a bad VP choice. We shall see.

4 years of Carter gave us 8 years of Reagan.

Sooooooo, in case you missed the logic, if McCain doesn’t pick a pro-life, conservative VP running mate, we can’t trust him to pick originalists judges, either, and would be better off with 4 years of Obama for the chance of 8 years of a true conservative after Obama. Think about it.
