He's not trying to be Olivier or anyone. He's simply asking the same kinds of questions that an awful lot us here and around the country are asking.

I'm asking myself the same kinds of questions.

You're simply grasping at straws.

JMO, Tancredo should have gone whole hog on his "dilemna".

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles
And by opposing end them. To die—to sleep,
No more; and by a sleep to say we end
The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to: 'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep;
To sleep, perchance to dream—ay, there's the rub:
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause—there's the respect
That makes calamity of so long life.
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th'oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of dispriz'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th'unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovere'd country, from whose bourn
No traveller returns, puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have
Than fly to others that we know not of?
Thus conscience does make cowards of us all,
And thus the native hue of resolution
Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment
With this regard their currents turn awry
And lose the name of action.

is hating mcCain reason enough for any conservative to not vote for him and risk letting our brave heroes in the military be in obama or hillary's hands ?

would a true conservative be really willing to risk that ?

i sure as hell hope this is given proper consideration by everyone who calls themselves a conservative

You are right. I may reach the same conclusion as Rep. Tancredo. It will depend a lot on who he picks as VP. I just can’t bring myself to support McVain now.
