So, when President Hillary Rodham's appointees come after your property, your firearms, your vehicles, your small businesses, your food choices, your choice of words, your earnings, your children's values and political orientation, your children's sexual orientation, our Military's command structure, our choice of family physicians, and political forums like Free Republic, and your votes don't seem to be counted by people that you trust, then think of how principled are those who withheld votes for a somewhat-less-than-completely-conservative McCain.

Extremely well put. Conservatives in Congress and elsewhere can exert a significant amount of restraint on a President McCain's liberal tendencies, but none on a President Rodham's (shudder) or Obama's (triple shudder). Having a conservative backlash after 4 years is worth very little when you have 30 years worth of super-liberal majority sitting on SCOTUS. So your problems will not be solved for another two decades or so.

Not going out and voting early and often for the most conservative candidate in any race for any office in any year is just, dare I say it, McInsane!

Exactly... thank you.

"Conservatives in Congress and elsewhere can exert a significant amount of restraint on a President McCain's liberal tendencies,

This is one point I worry about,
however I believe the opposite is true.
Going against your own party's President is very difficult, especially if you want to be re-elected. But stonewalling the opposite party is easy, in the Senate.

Let the Democrats answer for the bad things about to happen to this country.

I also worry about Supreme Court of the U.S. appointments, but not enough to vote for McCain.

Nicely put!

There is no evidence to support McCain's being susceptible to conservative pressure.
