You jest. There is nothing conservative about those that are willing to give up and give their vote to Obama when they know full well the destruction to our freedom, our constitution, our future.
And then come on here and fight to claim they are purists. I don’t think a pure conservative would ever dream of turning their country over to an Obama.
If they would - then what good are they? They give away power. They do not build, they do not fight along with our soldiers.
In fact, they remind me of McCain. You can never count on them when they are needed - because they have to “show” everybody they belong to no one. And, in effect, none will ever depend on them by choice.
Blame me for McCain’s failure as a real leader, as opposed to the calculating politician he has become all you want. My conscience is clear. I will not follow in willful blindness a liberal in conservative’s clothing. I had been clinging to a few other issues that I care deeply about in order to talk myself into voting for him, but no more. My only plans for the future, other than continuing to enjoy my family and my life, are to try to pay enough attention to the news stories out there that I can donate to the right conservative causes and hopefully have someone I can support in future elections.
That’s a hell of an endorsement of McCain.
Ya know that purist term is so overused these days. On a good day McCain is 10% Conservative on the issues. If 10% is the high bar, a Liberal can walk over it. I believe in Reagan’s 80% rule. Mike Pence and Dick Shelby meet that standard. Anyone in the Gang of 14 does not. Bush was there until he caved under this bailout nonsense.
