either way it would be outside of the norm

So sad you're willing to abandon your principles and have so little confidence in the United States. Hussein is terrible, but will bring about true conservatism and will force the GOP to move right. McCain as the face of the "conservative" party will do irreparable harm to conservatism.

Fighting to win a battle in spite of the war is foolish. Sometimes, the strategic decisions are harder to make than tactical ones like this.

I don't endorse or associate with people of who are fundamentally against self-responsibility and conservatism. By voting for McCain you are endorsing him.

Conservatives don't abandon their principles, and if you think McCain is a conservative, you need to revise your understanding of what conservatism is about... obviously at this time, you don't understand it.

Sorry but I am not willing to wager that a Ronald Wilson Reagan would be on the heals of a 4 year experiment in Obama. Nor am I willing to wager that a great enlightenment of conservatism would swell up in America ringing in a new era of conservative principles. There is too much at stake, the congress, senate right now is so far left and we have so little chance of overtaking it that a McCain Presidency to me is infinitely more palatable than a entirely socialist federocracy.

By standing on a static unbridgeable principle you may as well be standing on the throat of America.
