Oh my freaking God! The case against McCain is huge. Campaign finance reform gave us George Soros / Move on. org politics and is anathema to free speech advocates. He was the sole Republican opposing permanent Bush tax cuts and in the Senate sided with the Democrats in opposing measures to stop the fillibustering of popular Republican measures. Hes probably mostly reponsible for the inefectiveness of 6 yrs of Repub majority in the legislature. He called Jerry Falwell an icon of intolerance and implied Evangelical Republicans are wacko racists.

His record on immigration is abominable and arrogant and tin-eared, as he sucks up to big business monopolists (his forte). Hes the biggest media suckup there is and is HATED by any conservative who dares to follow politics. He's even said things that suggest he's even unreliable on those things he supposedly favors, ie abortion, gun control, etc. He will never , NEVER get the nomination.

Hyperbole!

Mostly opinion, not facts.

Some just DON’t get it even if you hit them with a ton of evidence.

Probably all valid points.

But, lets look at this rationally.
How about we look at the pluses and minuses of each candidate?
Who do want as a wartime president of all candidates? Does Mitt Romney, Huckabee, Paul, and Guiliani have extensive foreign policy experience?

I tend to think of the president of someone who knows how to protect the nation. Guiliani knows how to put a city back together, but does he have established international relationships to draw upon in times of crises?

I think the conservatives could keep McCain in line on all the other issues. We proved it on the amnesty bill. We can get the campaign finance bill reversed. He isn’t really running on a mandate expect getting the conservative spending back in line. How do you do that? Cut spending.

As for opposing Bush tax cuts, it doesn’t really matter when Bush is spending money well beyond what we are taking in, and I know a lot is due to the two wars. But I think it will e worth in the long run. But we need to watch the defense-related contractors. Seems like they are running amuck.

There is no perfect candidate. I just don’t want a shopping mall to blow up and that’s going to guide my vote.
