I can’t answer. I just can’t. I’m sorry. Cut off my leg or cut off my arm? I just can’t do it.

[WVNan]

I’m sorry, but if McInsane is the nominee & the other choice is hillary, I will have to sit this one out. I might write in Obama in the hope stopping the clintons. I’m changing my registration ASAP to Independent and telling the GOP to remove my name from their files.

[Defendingliberty]

If it is McCain vs Clinton...I guess I vote McCain...
If it is McCain vs Obama....I become a Conservative suicide voter and vote Obama.....

[tillacum]

The general election is a few months off and there are a few more states to check in. I lost my guy..but I sure don’t want mccain....he’s not the kind of leader we need.

[Inyokern]

Sorry but I’m not a dead-ender. I disagree with McCain on immigration, on campaign finance reform, on immigration and on taxes — did I mention immigration? — but, if he is the nominee, I will vote for him.

At the very least, he might have some coattails. We could lose congressional seats like Hastert’s seat, Kirk’s seat and Roskam’s seat in Illinois and that would be a disaster.

[Eva]

Leave it blank.

[stboz]

I will not vote. McHillary Invictus.

Life will be extinguished.

[sheana]

I’m changing my registration ASAP to Independent and telling the GOP to remove my name from their files.

I did that after the last amnesty go round. When Bush, McCain, Lindsey, etc. called me names on national tv it was the final straw.

[PA-RIVER]

OK, I can do better ...

Our only hope is McCain picks Barny Frank as his “running mate”, and has a heart attack while “packing” his cabinet.

Better?

McCain is an insane liberal, too damn dangerous to be elected .... there, I said it.

[WVNan]

Well, Rush was right. McInsane is destroying the Republican party. He started doing so a long time ago. Mccain-Feingold, gang of 14, shamesty. All those things have hurt the party. If he somehow get the nomination he will finish it off. Time to start putting together a new conservative party.

[seekthetruth]

I am not giving up on beating McCain! I do not believe he will win the nomination, and I am going to volunteer for Mitt Romney. Just signed up at his campaign site and made a donation. I have to keep fighting to do everything I can to prevent McCain from winning the nomination! I pray that the conservative voters on Super Tuesday do the best they can to prevent McCain or Huckabee from being the nominee. Hopefully Mitt will be endorsed by Fred Thompson before Super Tuesday and also receive other good endorsements. I just have to keep hoping for the best candidate to beat Hillary or Obama, and right now it is Mitt Romney. GO MITT!

[Rosemont]

McCain still has not repudiated amnesty.

[Chgogal]

Do you really think that the average American will vote for a cancer scarred old man to be POTUS? McCain supporters just handed the WH to either Hillary or Obama. That means The House, The Senate and The White House will be under democratic rule. Do you think that the Al Qaedas of the world will not take heart of the “Bush Loss”? Do you think the democrats will give our Military a fair shake? Do you think Hillary or Obama will nominate conservative judges to the Supreme Court? We lost big time with McCain winning tonight. I repeat. The average American will not vote for cancer scarred old man to be President of the United States of America. It will not happen. No way!

[CapnJack]

No, no, no .... don’t stay home. There are other conservative candidates that need your vote for senate, house, state, county, dog-catcher.

Write in ol’ CapnJack for prez. if you want, but don’t stay home.

[SoCalTransplant]

I never thought I would ever seriously consider not voting in a general election, but here I am.

[CapnJack]

If it is between these two Nov. 4th 2008 will bring a whole new meaning to the phrase “going to the mattresses”.

[Arkinsaw]

It's equivalent to a vote for Hillary.

I have many times argued the same type thing in other elections. I have held my nose and voted before. But not for McCain. I see no difference between McCain or Hillary. McCain is as likely to join with Hillary and push through legislation as Hillary is to join with McCain and do it. Hand...glove.

So I will vote third party this year.

[kaehurowing]

In good conscience, cannot vote for either; even the “lesser of two evils” theory doesn’t apply here, because they are equally bad.

[Common Tator]

McCain won Florida primarily on the Hispanic vote. The Hispanic vote will not be that large a percentave of the total Republican vote in other states.

Plus McCain is hurting for money. He will have a hard time getting it. Romney not only has a ton of money but has raised more money than anyone else.

We are now going from one state at a time to 24 states at a time. McCain even after his South Carolina win has been living from hand to mouth. He needs a ton of money and he needs it quick. Remember advertising is all cash in advance of air time. I will be hard for him to stay in the game.

Plus don't you recall the media was telling us just yesterday that Bubba had destroyed Hillary and she was a dead duck. And Hilllary got what percentage of the vote in florida? Close to 50 wasn't it? Once again Obama did not do well with white voters.

I spent 35 years in the media. I learned just one thing in all that time..

The only stories the media ever got wrong were the stories I knew all about.

[org.whodat]

What’s on TV that day?

Stargate reruns! LOL, will stay home and get others to do the same.
