Miss Diti, I am back from voting and shopping and if I tell how I actually ended up voting I'll get all sorts of irritating comments. After McCain and Huckabee made their deal this afternoon I decided we need someone who can play dirty against the democrats in November so I voted for McCain. There, I've done myself in and now everybody hates me.
I disagree with your vote, but I have to say that you just gave the best argument I’ve heard in a while for McC. That being said, I’ll still caucus for Mitt tonight, because I’m still convinced that (a) the media will compeltely savage and destroy McC once he’s actually an official presidential candidate; and (b) even if he miraculously wins, his hopeless temperament will make him a disastrous president.
I apologize for my comment, kcat. I didn’t mean to imply your daughter learned her values in the streets. I hope it didn’t come across that way. I meant that conservatism NEEDS to be taught at home because kids don’t see if anywhere else. Schools and the MSM teach them only liberalism.
I don’t understand voting against Hillary in the primary, but then vote Repub in the general as a strategy, if I understand it right. How does that help? Do you think Obama will be easier to beat? (I thought Hillary, with her baggage and now her crying, would be easier)
There’s no doubt McCain will play dirty. He is doing it already against Romney. It might be entertaining to watch since the Dems are masters at it. Especially since at that point, I won’t care which liberal wins.
Well thank you for your post re: your daughter but in addition to my NJ “undeclared” status allowing me to vote for Obama against Shrillary, I also got my neighbor to vote for Romney.
So call it a split decision. :)
