This is a sad excuse for a Republican Candidate. I am honestly sick. Not sure what is happening next for us here!!

Should I leave the Republican Party tomorrow or wait until it is official? He doesn’t have enough pledged delegates yet to overcome a blow up in the next six months. However, with Huckabee out, he is the only one left.

I've never really been a conspiracy kook, but I'm seriously considering it. How the Republican party could have opted for the anti-gun, pro-embryo-harvesting, anti-1st Amendment McCain is beyond me.
I'm starting to feel like one of the Jews who refuses to be a ghetto-guard.

Mike Huckabee was a strong candidate and would have served well in the White House. He’s a little too easy to poke fun at but, on the serious side, I don’t think anyone altered the course of the campaign as much as he has. I salute a worthy opponent and a Great American. God Bless, Mike Huckabee. Fair winds and following seas.

True, but he is the only show in town and he knows it. A third party vote would be a waste and would just ensure that Obama or Clinton would win. With all his warts, I would take McCain over Clinton and most definitely over Obama. At the end of the day, pragmatism rules. McCain knows most will see things this way (although I would have preferred a social conservative)....it’s the old lesser of two evils situation again.
I trust McCain on military and foreign policy over either democrat...so what else is one to do?

I agree. His speech was a good one. I would prefer him to McCain any day of the week.

Sell your own soul to the devil. If you want to vote for someone who hates the constitution, do so, but don't try to convince rational people that John McCain would be any better than Derek Obama.

With three members of my family currently serving in the Armed Forces (one in Iraq right now, one will be going for a second tour - my son, and one we don’t yet know about) there is only one choice IMHO. I’m voting for McCain.

Wow. I thought after reading the headline that this article was about McCain. I guess the MSM’s obsession with the Demos is all encompassing.
McCain had an absolutely wonderful speech. I liked the nod to homeschooling. I wish I could trust that he would vote like his speech. But his track record says otherwise.

Well at least Huckabee's gone, and good riddance. Of course, McCain isn't much better, but at least he has some clue on the war, and actually has a chance in hell of winning an election.
We'd better be prepared, though. When he gets into office and tries to shove amnesty down our throats again, the same schmucks that voted for him in the primary will come crying to those of us who actually pay attention and killed it last time, begging us to stop the damn thing again.

This is a sad day for America.

Should I leave the Republican Party tomorrow or wait until it is official? I'm biding my time on that one. For my own part, I'm interested in seeing how many "independent activists" donate their time and money to push McRINO through. My guess is that it'll be none. And I know that no self-respecting conservatives will be shilling for that liberal Democrat who's going to be running on the Republican ticket. All told, I suspect it's going to be a large no-show for McCain in November.
And then we'll be seeing those liberals and RINOs purged en masse with their "big tent" poles shoved up where the sun never shines. Roundabout that time we'll see the GOP rediscover its moral compass in time to retake Congress in 2010.
