I expect him to stick a few knives in our back but Obama would be worse. That's why I'm voting for John McCain.

The GOP is making a dramatic change to its stance on climate change thanks to a “push” from presidential nominee Sen. John McCain, according to the 2008 Republican Platform Committee chairman.
Platform Chair Rep. Kevin McCarthy, Calif., spoke to the group of conservative bloggers at the Republican National Convention on September 3 in St. Paul, Minn. He said McCain’s campaign was an instrumental part in pushing for a plank about climate change, to the chagrin of many conservatives.
“One thing you got to understand, when it comes to a platform, this is the difficulty that you have – you have a microcosm of the Republican Party sitting there,” McCarthy said. “You have a nominee that has influence inside a platform, when it comes forward too. And you will find that John McCain has a very strong belief when it comes to global warming.”

Uggg. Here’s a razor, John. Now give us a plank about the thirty million new citizens.
Then go vote for Obama/Biden.
Oh Lord! Does this mean he’s going to ramble on about this nonsense?
This is why he needs to surround himself with more people very different from himself in his cabinet. Palin is a great start but I want him outnumbered.
One of the many reasons McCain will never get my vote.
He doesn’t have mine yet either.
This is why Palin is so important to this ticket.
Middle of the road...democrat light never wins elections for republicans.
Thank God, when McCain wins he’ll only be four years. No way he’ll win again at 76 years old.
At the end of the day it’s still McCain. It’s who he is.
Amnesty, Cap and Trade, Global warming, Billions to Africa for Aids, etc..
We have some monumental battles ahead to keep McCain in check.
you can believe in AGW and still be against cap and trade or a carbon tax. I’m for more nuclear power and lower taxes (no, not skewed tax credits) and the free market will lead to new technologies. The solution to any problem (assuming AGW is real and a problem) must come naturally and not forced.
meant to write that when McCain wins he’ll only SERVE four years.

Global Cooling? Maybe. Sunspots are down and indicates a natural period of slight cooling? Climate Change? Mmmm just right. No matter what is wrong (warming or cooling) it's all our fault. We gotta do something to protect our phony-baloney jobs! Hurumph, hurumph, hurumph!

“McCAIN has a strong belief...”
Sorry JOHN but it is not a matter of “belief” but of science and truth!
And there are many doubdts about global warming and its causes
At least they've left themselves some room to later argue that "measured and reasonable steps" do not include any "cap and trade" system or other mandatory reductions in carbon dioxide emissions.
It’s always possible that he’ll lend an ear to his new VP- maybe she can clear some of the cobwebs of PC out of his brain.
Climate change my . . .
