“I said nothing about letting McCain go down to defeat in November. That’s a given.”

By who??? SurveyUSA 50-state polls, which shows neither Democrat beating McCain at the moment (Hillary v. McCain, toss-up; Obama v. McCain, slight lean to McCain.)

This will be a close race perhaps, and you could effectively ‘throw’ the election to Obama, the left-liberal.

“Turning to McCain for salvation is totally senseless.”

Dont blame me, I wasnt among the 5 million or so GOP primary voters who went for him. Its a big disappointment.
Like some others, you confuse the general election with the primary election. We lost the opportunity to nominate a conservative. We cannot ‘make up’ for that loss by throwing the whole country into the clutches of a far-left President (Obama) and a Democrat Congress.

The best way to win back the party for the conservatives is to SUPPORT conservatives running for Congress, local races, in primaries etc. If you really think your local Reps are RINOs, go ahead and run against them. we knocked off a RINO in Maryland last month, I am sure some of the New York RINOs can be knocked off too if conservatives get together and work at it.

“Just one other thing. Where did you come yup with 90% support for McCain in the election? “ Polls. Look at Survey USA and other polls. On the one hand there is a polling number like 40% say McCain is not conservative enough, but still most will support him. Experience; leadership; better positions than the left-liberal Obama.

Your ignoring the fact that McCain is not a serious candidate. He's too full of himself and the phony senate collegiality that comes across as self righteous sanctimony. Throughout the campaign he will be more hostile to his supporters than he ever will be to his “opponent”. For some reason, this collegiality, though phony, does not extend to Republicans in general and conservatives n particular. He does not share your fear of RATS either Obama or Hillary. He just doesn't. He seems to kind of like them.

But if that's all acceptable to you. I wish you well.
