I comforted myself with that rationale when I voted for GHW Bush, Ford, Dole, GW Bush - and I ain’t buying it for McCain. I’m sick of the GOP’s love affair with government and disdain for the Constitution.
and what if all you get is more Souters?
“federal judgeships.”......
In a nutshell, this is a lot more important than POTUS.
This is the real goal of the whack left! More looney tunes on the supreme court a.k.a. Ginsburg!
Sounds like a bunch of fred barns made up crap. LOL and that is about it.
I was in the “I’ll never vote for McCain” camp. Then I saw Rev. Wright. If Obama is the candidate, I will be voting for McCain. I may be ill afterward, but I will not accept Obama.
"THE MILITARY"
I will not force my brave men and women of the military to be subjected to the command of one BHO or HRC, though it is looking more and more like it will be BHO as the DIMWITS choice.
The title is a self contradiction. Anyone who supports a socialist like McCain is not a conservative.
The GOP is so weak and clueless. After a pummeling in the next election, the Dems will end up with their majority, veto proof majority.
Until we get back to fighting for our country and what we believe in, as in “sticking it up and to it”, we are going to be unable to stop a liberal court.
McCain cannot stop the Dem rollover, and won’t try too hard as it would be a waste of his time.
Conservatives are very nice people, sad to say we are nicing it into the land of forgotten dreams.
I have kept from giving to the RNC, BUT the more I learn about OSama the more I’m inclined to fork over some bucks to McPAIN. I have grandkids and I ain’t gonna risk their future just because DON McJUAN has some flaws. OSama and fear of the RATS controlling both house is enough to hold my nose and vote for Don McJuan! Sorry but that’s the whole stinking truth!
I just heard on FNS that Hillary is aiming for a SC nomination. No f’in way, Jose!
Which, because MacCain will be true to form and defect to the democrats, will all be for naught.
Ain’t that the truth! And this excrement sandwich will be the toughest to choke down.
Some "rally".
McCains’ judges pick will come from a list provided by the then Senate Majority Leader.
The list will include Ginsburg II and Ginsburg III.
With his history of crossing the aisle and, once there, turning and giving us Conservatives the finger, I don’t think he’s going to ask for a longer list.
High-court fears drive *Republicans to rally around McCain, overlook flaws.
* - how it should have read.
What? Sell out what principles this party once stood for because of fear?
Not this Conservative.
With a likely Democrat majority in the senate next year, I can easily envision McCain dumping any actual conservative for some 'compromise' Supreme Court nominee, like David Souter, who will be sold as a 'conservative' because he (or she) once voted in favor of one or two 'conservative' issues while on some lower court. Once sworn in, the pretend 'conservative' will promptly rule on the liberal side and declare they are 'progressive' and 'open-minded' regarding the constitution.
Too late then for recriminations and finger-pointing. Even 'I told you so' won't mean much as our freedoms are slowly contracted, by law. Although Obama scares me in his hard-core leftism, European-centered worldview and obvious naiveté, I don't necessary see McCain as a reasonable alternative.
I intend to wait awhile and see how the inevitable Obama candidacy plays out. I believe Barack Obama is a very flawed candidate in the mold of Mike Dukakis. Worse, actually. I also believe that McCain will win the election handily. If that looks like a reality in October, I'll go ahead and vote for anybody but McCain (or a Democrat). If it looks tight and McCain is trailing, I'll vote for him, with an industrial-sized clothes-pin on my nose.
However, I won't be 'overlooking' his flaws, just accepting them as slightly preferable to the Marxist alternative.
Anyone that listens to what he says now instead of what he has done/said in the past is going to be very disappointed. Look at his past comments and actions in regards to judges and you won't find support for conservative judges. Wake up people!
