I’m with you. I don’t really understand what the shooting is about since we don’t have a straightline conservative left in the race (haven’t since Hunter dropped). Pick your poison but quit whining about it . . . that’s what I say. Want an untrustworthy guy that you know will go back on some of the conservative stuff he’s saying now — and whose record is abysmal — pick Romney. Want a guy that is conservative on spending and the war, but not on immigration or taxes, pick McCain. Want a guy that raised taxes, but has a good record otherwise and is trustworthy on social issues and gun rights, pick Huckabee. But it isn’t like we can pretend with these guys that there is a conservative left in the race.

Hunter would have been a good choice also. But the majority of the people who voted must not have thought so.

The flaw in your presentation is not that youre citing history incorrectly, but that what Huckster and McVain are saying now is that they wont change a thing about their deviations, and McCain would push open borders, and higher taxes and regulations, and that Hucksterby will push his smoking bans and weight control legislation and other populist policies including Jimmy Carter like Forwign Policy initiatives

IOW, they will keep up the old crap. Romney says all the right things now, and it will be easier to keep his feet to the fire, if thats what he ran on

Its not a great place to be, its just better than the others, IMO... (Oh, and a brokred convention will not happen in 2008, sorry.)
