Well folks...here we are. This is actually how we got the first Clinton...remember? Stubborn...go for it all! We cannot have it all, it is a fact! McCain has the opportunity to do the right things. Admit McCain-Feingold was a mistake with terrible consequences. Perhaps even offer legislation to correct the error. If McCain is the Conservative he claims to be and expects us to follow him, give us a reason to follow! Give us some reasons to get excited. Don't pander...don't promise anything you can't deliver. Study your Federalism!
This site is monitored by the liberal left as you all know so the longer it takes for us to quit attacking McCain, the more ammunition we are giving to our enemies. McCain would not be the first choice for any of us here...but what do we have left? 4 Years of Clinton? 4 Years of Obama?
McCain has his faults, and we all know they are many, but with the instant communications we now have, we can certainly hold his little butt to the fire on any issue we believe he is getting out of line on. I hate to admit it, but I must put my personal feelings aside and hold my fire for now.
Many were willing to give Romney a pass if he could beat McCain...maybe we should be willing to give McCain one more shot to fulfill his Conservative values and move forward Conservatism into his administration. We can certainly hold him to his words. In 2000, I admit I gave the maximum and truly felt screwed!
This year, I gave with an open heart to FRED and was cheated out of a very fine President by a MSM frightened to death of a true Conservative. The MSM won...we got McCain!
Now, we have to beat them at their own game. Regrettably, we must one by one at least find the good in McCain and hope and pray he really heard us with respect to illegal immigration and securing the borders. If he is serious, he could start pushing completion of the border fence already in the law and funded. FREEPERS could begin to bombard his office for completion of the fence.
Fight fire with fire. So...I will be the first to say, I will hold my nose and reluctantly vote for our Party nominee. I will watch carefully and decide later as to whether I will actively support him, but I will vote for him.
Flame away!
I hope this site is carefully monitored by the conservative leaders as well and they are paying attention. Somehow it seems to me they no longer care what we want and are determined to lead us farther to the left with each election. I feel like I am in the old show Twilight Zone.
