With McCain’s history over the last ten years, how can anyone trust him to do anything a Conservative would like? The only times his vote went with the Conservatives was when it would make no difference in the passing of the final bill. When he could make a difference, he did - for the other party.
McCain wants to win the war.
Obama wants to lose the war.
Those are two issues a conservative can support.
You go ahead and vote for Obama, I'll do the grown up thing and vote for McCain.
There are only two issues on which I trust McCain. First is his support for the war against Islamofascism (though his own experience as a POW has generated bad judgment on torture). Second is his opposition to abortion, and he's not as strong on that as I'd like.
On every other issue he is a liberal. He fits exactly into the Scoop Jackson Democrat mold, and I wish he'd be honest and switch parties.
