LOL McCain's not a socialist
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.

I’m not about to defend McCain, but I still contend he’s not a socialist. And as far as I can tell, he never considered joining the Democrats or becoming Kerry’s running mate either.
Having said that, promoting a strong national defense, limited government, spending reform and pro-life issues has marked one as a right leaning Republican. The fact McCain has joined forces with liberals on several critical issues, doesn’t help his chances of getting enough of the conservative voters -— mine included -— to elect him POTUS. Nonetheless, he will garner most conservative votes come election day.
The fact that the GOP has moved leftward in recent years is not lost on this conservative. You still have to use the intellect that God gave you to make a rational decision.
Reactionary absolutism and fringe extremism employed to rail against reality, serves no good purpose.

Also, don’t forget that one-worlder MacCain supports ratification of The Law of the Seas Treaty.
