Yes McCain has a number of positions that are unsupportable. But in an election it’s the rare candidate who is behind all the correct positions. The fact is McCain will defend our country, while the Dems won’t. He is not the perfect candidate (I didn’t get a chance to select one because the issue was settled before Wisconsin primary), but he is far preferable to the Dems. That is all that matters.

But in an election it’s the rare candidate who is behind all the correct positions.

That's an understatement with respect to McCain. McCain's not even close to being correct on an overwhelming majority of issues.

The fact is McCain will defend our country

The fact is his stance on national security is much weaker than he wants people to know the WOT is not just being fought in Afghanistan and Iraq. it is a global problem including our own borders. It is a fact terrorists have posed and continue to pose as illegal aliens to enter the country and destroy us from within our own borders. Despite that fact, McCain supports granting amnesty for illegal aliens. This position endangers America and makes it easier for terrorists to accomplish their goal.
