True, but not far enough. One of the problems we've had here in Pennsylvania is that the Republican party hierarchy constantly messes with the primaries to try to ensure their anointed candidates win. This is anathema to many of us, who oddly enough think that the primaries are our time to choose the candidates for the general election. So I say, defeat RINOs in the primaries, but also make sure that you know who you're voting for for the state committee posts (usually voted on at primary time) and make sure they're committed, principled conservatives, not part of the mine-by-divine-right party elite.
I will not support McCain in the primaries. No Way.
But, if he gets through (somehow) as the candidate of the GOP, his quasi-positive pro-life record might help him.
George Will points out that since McCain would appoint liberal judges who believe the first amendment is a nuisance, then they'll certainly be the type who find some "right to abortion" in that elastic Constitution.
Sadly, there is no republican alternative at this point with strong name recognition.
How simple can this be? This will be my plan, as it has always been.
Notice how so many would miss the second part, about the general election and would use your words to continue to ferment the discontent within the the republican ranks.
Support and vote for the most conservative candidate running.

Right on target, sir!!
How does this square with your support of the liberal Hollywood actor over the Conservative McClintock?
