I agree that McCain's position on embryonic stem cell research is inconsistent (to put it mildly), but McCain would appoint judges who are much more likely to protect (most of) the unborn than the judges Obama would appoint.

I suggest you think McCain's position on judges through more thoroughly. If he becomes President he will be facing socialist Democrat majority Congress, many of which he has sided on several issues in the past. You're kidding yourself if you think he will nominate Conservative judges given those facts.

To paraphrase Voltaire, the best is the enemy of the good.

To quote Ronald Reagan addressing CPAC in 1975:

“A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency or simply to swell its numbers.”

That's a good point. Plus he's already flat out stated that he would not appoint a conservative like Alito. How many facts do people need to face reality? I see that it is great to have a candidate to support, especially against the likes of Obama. But supporting McCain involves ignoring just about everything he's done in the last decade.
