President Reagan's gifts to the Republican Party were ideas: growing the economy through tax cuts, limiting government's size, forcefully confronting totalitarian threats, making human rights a centerpiece of America's foreign policy, respecting unborn human life, empowering the individual with more freedom.

I have no confidence that John McCain is in step with any of these. He's not going to cut taxes to help the economy, he definitely won't try to limit the size of government, and he's not looking too good on proactively confronting Islamic terrorism - he's more concerned with giving terrorists constitutional rights. Lastly, he's not going to govern in a way that empowers individual Americans - because his actions as a senator show that, like a liberal, he believes that the elite governing body in DC is more capable of making most decisions for us.
