Supreme Court justice appointments are not my main concern right now. GWB actually swung the Court back more to the conservative side with Alito and Roberts, where O’Connor was a lukewarm conservative at best. Those likely to retire during a Democratic presidency would likely be those justices that are liberal anyway. Sure McCain’s picks might be better than Obama’s or Hillary’s, but with the amount of appeasement he’s been famous for in the Senate, I doubt his picks would be the least bit like Alito or Roberts.

My rejection of McCain is meant to be a message to the RNC. Also, I’m not going to reward McCain after he’s stabbed the Republicans in the back. I’m sorry, but if people are worried about protecting the Constitution so much, McCain’s as much of an enemy as a Democrat. We need to look no further than McCain-Feingold to prove that.

Your mileage may vary, but I’m not going to apologize for my refusal to vote for the status quo (aka the “you’ll-shut-up-and-like-it” attitude of the GOP).

The only message the GOP will get is that they cannot count on your vote and thus must find somewhere else to look as a replacement. What you have to realize is that you are of the fringe and victory does not lie with caving in to your lot.

That's what the new Republican Coalition is about - bringing in new voters that will ensure our victory for years to come.
