>>>>>Voting for a socialist like McCain is not the action of a conservative. His position to an overwhelming majority of positions is anathema to conservatism.

LOL McCain's not a socialist. But like many Republicans who lived through the age of Reagan, its become fashionable to push moderate politics by promoting far too many liberal policies in the hopes of gaining the votes of empty headed independents.

In the end, most conservatives will vote for McCain. The alternatives are even more repugnant.

McCain has proven many times in the past and present he is a socialist. He actively sought out the socialist Democrats in 2001 when he was considering joining their party. He has been funded by communist billionaire George Soros. John Kerry was considering him as a VP running mate in 2004. McCain has sponsored several bills with socialists including McCain-Kennedy that would grant amnesty to illegal aliens, McCain-Feingold that would restrict freedom of speech, Lieberman-McCain Stewardship Climate Act that is premised on the fallacy of human induced global warming.

Most recently he admonished his own party and defended Marxist Obama when the North Carolina GOP wanted to run an ad against Obama. He has promised to: speak with the National council Of La Raza, not stop sanctuary cities, and never drill in ANWR. Those are all positions supported by those in the socialist Democrat party.

In the end, most conservatives will vote for McCain.

In the end only those who are not conservative will vote for a socialist like McCain.

The alternatives are even more repugnant.

I know it's hard to accept the fact the GOP has aligned its ideology with the socialist Democrats because it has been happening incrementally for many years. It is not a matter of Republican versus Democrat. It is conservatism versus socialism. The alternative of not supporting conservatism is far worse.

In the end, most conservatives, like most Republicans and most Democrats, won't vote, period. McCain will end up winning not because conservatives and Republicans backed him, but because the few who do vote for him will be joined by enough Democrats radically opposed to the Dem nominee (whether it's Obama or Hillary -- they are equally polarizing among Democrats) to vote for McCain who after all, is of the same mind as themselves on big-picture items like global warming, politics of envy, bigger government, punishing the rich, etc. McCain will win because Democrats elected him.
