In 2008, I’m voting for a pro-life pro-gun conservative, in May AND November (if I can find one on the ballot).
I'm hoping to vote for a Republican in November 2008. I will not vote for any candidate who advocates abortion or who claims it is a constitutional right.
This is the hill I have chosen to die on. The country survived 8 years of Bill Clinton and as a result we won both houses of congress and the presidency in 2000. Four years of another democrat is a small price to pay if that is the cost of principle. Often when we live by principle we pay a heavy price, but those who compromise their core principles for temporary expediency pay a much heavier price and one that is often too greivous to bear.
