There’s no guarantee a Democrat President will give us a Republican Congress in 2010. Even the Republican Congress we got in 1996 was unable to enact most of its agenda and was forced to compromise with President Clinton on more than a few things. These compromises became a strategy, which, after 8 years, grew into the “compassionate conservatism” we all know and love today.

Also, McCain is a lot of things I don’t like, including pro-Amnesty, but calling him a socialist is a bit of a stretch.

Mccain-FeinGold can be used to shut down talk radio or blogs and web sites like Freerepublic too.

Mcain is not a socialist? Then what do you call someone who wants to empower goveernment to censor political speech including the internet?

So do conservatives or socialists want to end free speech and censor the internet and spend 10 years plotting with Soros groups to do it?

Bradley Smith says that the freewheeling days of political blogging and online punditry are over. In just a few months, he warns, bloggers and news organizations could risk the wrath of the federal government if they improperly link to a campaign's Web site. Even forwarding a political candidate's press release to a mailing list, depending on the details, could be punished by fines.

Smith should know. He's one of the six commissioners at the Federal Election Commission, which is beginning the perilous process of extending a controversial 2002 campaign finance law to the Internet

Also McCain voted against the Bush Tax cuts which also proves he is a socialist. also McCain is for giving Amnesty to 30 million illegals which is cultural Marxism and would give us millions more Democrat voters.

I know there are hundreds of other examples but I don't have time to look them up.

The 1994 Republican congress did a lot of conservative things including welfare reform , the Bush tax cuts, grid locking Clinton , didn't raise taxes, and not allowing the Clintons to nationalize the healthcare industry.
