Then vote your principles! You will ensure that a real democrat and a huge democrat majority will pass laws that will in the long run shove your principles up your arse, and take apart the constitution as we understand it. Good luck with that.

None of these “principled” ladies and gentlemen seem to grasp the fact that one of the key founders of the democrat party, Jefferson, wanted to gut the constitution when he was Washington’s Secretary of State and secretly smearing Washington’s administration through a newspaper he controlled. He openly advocated rewriting the constitution because it had too many controls on citizens, or so he believed. He also advocated among his circle of friends that there should be another revolution that would make the United States more perfect, like the French. The democrat party has always despised the constitution because it does not allow them to lie, cheat and steal to meet their own ends and they will do whatever they can to bring down the constitution. They are socialists and have tried since the signing of the constitution to throw away the federal republic for a socialist state run by them.

McCain is an ideological equal to X42's first term platform.

If you can't see that, then we have nothing else to say to each other.

The democrats openly announce that they will subvert the constitution as they always have. You seem to believe that all is lost and we may as well hand it over to them. Even one redeeming quality in McCain is better than handing over our constitution to a democrat and a huge democrat majority in congress. Don’t say third party because anyone with any common sense knows that third parties will not go anywhere at this point in time. You’ve given up and are ready to curl up and let the party of traitors shred you and the constitution. Sadly you are right nothing more can be said to you or of you.

McCain-Feingold. McCain-Liebermen. McCain-Kennedy.

RINO's are just as quick to subvert the Constitution.

How about we not do that this time?

Sure, if anybody had been thinking during the primaries that would be possible. So who are you going to vote for? Third party is a loser from the start. If you wanted a third party you should have been organizing, recruiting, gathering money and promoting that at least 4 years ago. If you think that allowing Obama to win is no worse than having McCain then vote your principles and be assured that the democrat party will stuff your principles up your backside. If there is even a slight chance (which there is) that McCain will do less damage to our republic than the party of traitors will then that’s where the vote should go. A vote for any democrat is a sure vote to subvert the constitution.

I will NOT vote for a socialist. Be it McCain or Obama.

Neither should you, but you seem to be a lot more happy about it since it is your "team" pushing it.

This sentiment is EVERYTHING that is wrong with Party Politics.

Party politics has nothing to do with this race. If you don’t pick the least harmful candidate then your non-vote or vote for a third party effectively supports an Obama. Voting for a third party that has no chance at all has the same effect. Obama will be far worse than McCain and I despise McCain. Hope you can live with the consequences of directly or indirectly electing a true declared socialist from the party traitors.

Party politics has EVERYTHING to do with this race. Your very statement contradicts itself.

The LEAST harmful candidate would be Ron Paul. Next Bob Barr. And that is just those who are in one of the 3-4 largest Parties.

McCain won't garner a majority of the Electoral College. The Dems voting for him now will cross back into their camp. It'll be Dole/Kemp all over again.

Paul and Barr won’t get squat and votes for them at this point are by default votes for Obama. If there were any chance for a third party candidate who was remotely conservative I would vote for them, not for the party. Republican or any party politics is of little interest to me and has little meaning at this point. What is of interest is the single candidate who will do the least harm to the constitution since that is the only choice the degenerate primary process has left us. If I thought that Obama would do less harm then I might at least not vote and let the election fall to him by default but that is certainly not the case, he is the biggest threat to the constitution, a bigger one than McCain.

If the warnings were as broad as the Buchannan wing suggests, the Marines would not have landed on the shore of Tripoli and the Monroe Doctrine would not have been official foreign policy.

Actually, in "A Republic, Not An Empire" Buchanan praises the Monroe doctrine.

so, basically, despite your saying you'd vote for the more conservative candidate, your FEAR keeps you coming back like a whipped spouse in an abusive relationship.

You'll sell out the Constitution out of cowardice.

Got it...

You’d throw away your vote instead of at least trying to provide a minimum of protection to the constitution. Using your principles and the concept that “they are all democrats” as an excuse to ignore reality is true cowardice and sells out the constitution.

By the way, I served to defend and protect that constitution for over 20 years. I don’t need lectures from your on what needs to be done to protect the constitution.

I’d ask if you get it, but I doubt it.

Minimal protection? McCain-Feingold is "minimal"?

I don't care if you are Chesty Puller re-incarnated. You are the one throwing your vote away on someone you don't really believe in.

You are the one throwing your principles away.

Maybe another 20 years and you'll finally "get it".
