Attn McCain Apologists: Talk all you want!

But he's still a constitution trampling RINO and unless he repeals McCain-Feingold, repudiates amnesty and global warming, drops all support for embryonic stem cell research and stops talking about partnering up with the Democrats and instead swears to fight the evil bastards he won't be getting my support.

You kicked the conservatives to the curb and nominated your RINO, now all you gotta do is get him elected.

However, that shouldn't be all that tough to do. Look what he'll be running against. A corrupt, power hungry Marxist radical feminist control freak or a corrupt, America-hating racist Marxist surrender monkey (oops, can I say "surrender monkey" in this context?). Can't see America going for either of those two useful idiots.

By the way, "change" is a Marxist codeword.

As they say, America deserves better.

Carry on.

P.S.

Or, you can select a kick butt pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-America, pro-gun, pro-drilling, pro-defense, pro-small government, fiscal conservative as your running mate and signal a return to traditional conservatism as the future of the GOP and of America and you will get all the support you need. If she's a moose hunting Alaskan army mom, all the better!

2012 aside, we need to get as many seats back as possible in the interim in the House and the Senate.

no easy task and the National Committee isn’t making it any easier.

Well said, Jim!

lrm, lesser satan and other McLame apologists are welcome to pull the lever for their man...The real conservatives here will do OUR thing, doing everything we can to keep McJerk and his mafia wife out of The White House. It doesn’t matter who his VP pick will be...we’re already screwed. VPs has virtually no power. They don’t set policy.

Frankly, I could care less now about the Presidential Sweeps...There are many more important fish in the pan to fry...like, taking back the House with a Conservative landslide like ‘94, only THIS one without Mr. NAFTA Gingrich.

some may appear to be apologists but could also be called pragmatists as well in the current political climate.

I don’t begrudge anyone exercising their vote as they see fit. I also would expect them to think thru the consequence accordingly.

Obviously, the lines are so blurry now when it comes to the choices left in too many areas that anyone can’t be too comfortable with the likely outcome and potential future actions from any of them. I know folks will say the Supreme Court is at risk and such, but if past performance is any indicator of future results, I agree, we need to gain as many seats as we can the next two cycles to be able to effect or stall out whoever gets the nod.

Agree 100%. I first voted in 1980 for Reagan. Have never missed a Presidental vote and always been a Republican. I left the Republican Party after Super Tuesday. If they are so stupid to pick McCain, they can do without me.

I am staying home come November.

6 months ago I didn’t think any Republican had much chance to win in 08. Now a golden opportunity is handed to them and we have—him as our nominee. What a tragedy for the country.

Just what I have been thinking ever since the GOP primary ended for all practical purposes when Fred, the last reasonably conservative candidate in the race, was forced out by failing finances and his own lack of energy and enthusiasm for the race. Fred may not have won over Obama or Hillary if he had been nominated but at least he would have given the general voters a clear choice, which is something that won't be nearly that clear with McCain as the nominee.

Somehow the conservative majority of the GOP has to find and back several truly conservative candidates for the 2012 primaries who can attract both GOP primary voters and general election voters in November, including a large segment of the middle ground independents. If we don't, as a close observer of national politics for the past 50-plus years I predict that the GOP will become stuck in the position of being the perpetual minority party within the next two election cycles.

There are a whole bunch of issues I disagree with McCain on, but I am with him on the WOT and right to life.

I will gladly pull the lever for him this time over Hillary or Obama and then will work like mad to get a true Conservative elected next time. The consequences of having McCain lose to either of those two this year are just too high for it to be a realistic alternative for me.

We need to lift up a Conservative as a 3rd party or independent to block McCain't , and go for the win.

The only conservatives I know by name showing any kind of leadership ability are Rush Limbaugh and Jim Robinson. Were are our leaders, who will step up and take control of some 30 million conservatives begging to be led?

Rather than waiting for "our leaders to step up and take control," it is time for each of us to exercise personal leadership. I have every confidence that true and worthy leaders will emerge from within our midst. Our country's great history proves me correct.

Sadly, this election cycle has revealed, in spades, that the majority of voters (in both parties) are looking to Washington, D.C. for leadership. Thus, we find the final three are all U.S. Senators, none of which is prepared, equipped or qualified to lead the greatest nation in the world. As the picture circulating in various FR threads aptly reveals: Washington, Jefferson and Adams have been replaced with Curly, Moe and Larry.

To paraphrase that familiar country song, we are "Looking for Leadership in All the Wrong Places." Until and unless we begin looking for leadership outside the beltway, we shall be sorely disappointed and increasingly disenchanted with each new election cycle.

The Republican party has managed to fumble opportunity away, deciding that making nice with the New York Times and the Washington Post is more important than exercising true leadership. The "Big Tent" has only served to invite compromise and bipartisanship (translate: agreeing with liberals) I paraphrase yet another country song, "When a Party Stands for Nothing it Will Fall for Anything."

John McCain epitomizes Big Tent Bipartisanship, and as such, I consider him a greater threat than either Obama or Clinton. An Obama or Clinton presidency will bring out the fight in the conservatives (long overdue), while a McCain presidency will encourage a party move further to the left.

Today, the election comes down to a vote for center, or left of center. Not much of a choice if you ask me. I will vote in November ...for each and every conservative candidate and cause on the ballot. Sadly, this means I will not be casting a vote for President.

I don’t hang onto Rush’s every word, but he is the BEST spinner and entertainer ever.

It really doesn’t matter to him, as far, as his show goes, he’ll turn it into gold.

McCain has been reviled for years at free republic as a backstabber and smart ass. I despise his easy accommodation on global warming.

I vote for this guy only because there will be a Democrat congress voted in. This plus a Democrat president may kill our republic

You kicked the conservatives to the curb and nominated your RINO

Nobody forced McCain on us. Conservatives failed to beat McCain in the primaries despite a dozen more conservative candidates and a sizable disdain for McCain by the new (sic) media.
