I totally understand, but at least McCain will be with us on some issues and having a Republican president elected will hopefully produce coattails and keep the damage minimal to none in the Congressional and Senate elections.
If conservatives stay home due to Mc Cain we will not only get socialism but a willing Congress to happily pass everthing the savior wants.
I think McCain will be a better CIC than a Dim and will hopefully produce better judges. He hopefully will veto all earmarks. This would be a good start. If he picks a good conservative VP, we might rest easy as he is old and not in the best health.
Mc Cain is definitely not the best, but we were all split between him-Huckabee-Romney-Thompson at first and even Rudy to some extent. It was a plurality and McCain is what we got. We have to live with it!!
McCain probably will make a better CIC when it comes to the war on terror. The question is what will he do at home? Based on what he’s done so far, there is much reason for concern. If we explode with bombs from without, or we implode with massive illegal immigration within (and the costs that follow) we still lose.
But before all that, can anyone explain McCain’s ascendancy? How is it we are faced with him as the Republican nominee (that is, above and beyond the election process)?
