Conservatives are only a plurality of the Republican Party and have only one chance to effect national policy. They can refuse to support McCain. Without their vote, McCain can't win. Without a hope of victory, the financial well will go dry and the RNC will be forced to look to a compromise.
McCain as a candidate is the poster boy for bad news. He's the only member of the Keating Five who has survived. He's anti-conservative, both in his rhetoric and his voting record. He's old ... and he's angry. Not someone who will elicit confidence with the nuclear football. But most of all, for Californians, he's willing to surrender our national sovereignty to further his chances for election.
Yeah, and Ill sell you a bridge in Brooklyn, or is that Brookline? LOL,
Obama could not win this election short of handing out 1 million dollar checks to the entire population.
McCain will be the next President, just live with it.
