There's a school of thought that dictates that if it is Juan McCain versus any Democrat, it is best to vote Democrat. Either way the country is screwed. It might as well happen with a Democrat in office if the GOP is ever to succeed in rebuilding its brand.
I'm not sure I would go for such a strategy, but I don't think the GOP has a real chance for making a political comeback until at least the Congressional elections in 2010. Maybe by then the national GOP will do the right thing and close all of its primaries.
If McCain get the nomination we have to vote for McCain, at least we can pressure him to elect good judges.
If McCain is president, the conservatives will have to hold his feet to the fire from the very begining. McCain will have to know that we will not be bullied.
Look at how code pink leads the Democrats around by the nose. They are not afraid to make their demands known.
We hae to let McCain know that we are not buying his I am a conservative routine and we will make demands on him.
