Previous post saying this was just removed, but this one quotes Fox News.

I copied what I was going to post there:

I can’t in good conscience vote for either one of them. But I undersand the logic, too.

With hillary in the Whitehouse, there would be something to fight. It would rally the conservatives, just as Billyjeff did.

With McCain in the White House, there’s no one to fight. A coalition of RINOs, Republican opportunists, and Democrats would pass every crazy idea he had, including amnesty.

And what would you do about it then? Fight to replace McCain by voting Democrat in 2012?

A couple weeks ago (even before McCain became viable) I read an article written by a conservative that said it might make sense for conservatives to “pass” this election cycle. In other words, lose in 08. At the time, I thought, “No way.” But now I’m thinking that’s the way to go, if conservatives want to regain power.

Electing Another Carter to get Another Reagan is a Foolish and Dangerous Strategy. The logic in doing so is so stupid. You people must be naive about the Clintons.

Once they grab hold of power, that give the masses so much that they will not turn them out of power.
