One reason the Left can reach this point is that they embrace the policy of incrementalsim. Conservatives don’t have that luxury. Rightly or wrongly we can’t bring ourselves to cipher the goods and bads and then go on the totality of the candidate. No matter how strong we think McCain is on the war if illegal immigration is big to us then we say we can’t go with McCain, and on and on.

The difference between ‘us’ and ‘them’ is that they will support a slime ball like Bubba for eight plus years if he embraces even one of their pet beliefs. Best evidence of that is the deaf ear feminists turned to Bubba’s womanizing in return for his support of abortion.

I simply cannot support McCain, despite the high regard I have for him and his record of serving his country as a fighter pilot. That was 30 years ago, immigration and the other problems I have with him are today.

I used to get really tired of single women having babies and then using ‘the children’ to keep society from imposing on them the responsibility of being a mother. They could do drugs, choose unemployment, etc. and the rest of us couldn’t bring ourselves to come down on them because they were in a position of transferring our tough love to problems for their children. So they just went on having babies and with everyone they solidified their ability to use ‘the children’ to work the system.

It might be true, but damn I’m tired of hearing if I don’t roll over and support John McCain then I’m dooming America to eight years of liberal supreme court justices, etc.

What I really resent is the Republican Party using my very devotion to the country I love to beat me over the head with having to vote for the party anointed.

What I REALLY resent is a party that is so damned stubborn and selfish that it will make me choose between accepting their line or suffering through eight years of Clinton or Obama if that what it takes to snuff out the Party elites once and for all.

You hit the nail square on the head. We keep on letting them, the leftists, define the issues in their Orwellian speak and the GOP does little to correct the misrepresentations.
