The most horrific part, though is that if the Dems manage to pull the trifecta, they also get smooth sailing for judicial and SCOTUS nominees who will ensure that all of their Socialist programs will pass muster with the new and improved “living breathing document” called the Constitution of the United Stated that once limited the size and scope of the federal government.

Indeed they will and this will be the fault of those who are planing to sit out the election. I do hope they will come to their senses

They won’t. Just look at every thread that is somehow negative to McCain and the comments on it and I can see a repeat of ‘06 in the making. It seems that we are more concerned with our own purity than we are with advancing our ideas. Ah well, how much more can they really take away? ( Shiver )

Who is the greater fool? The fool, or the fool who follows him?

One of the constant themes in Hanson’s writing about the Iraq is that there were no good choices back then, only bad and worse. McCain is a bad choice with Obama and Clinton being worse.

I cringe that I might have to vote for him in November, but the alternative is worse. There is no doubt that the Republican party is in crisis, and there is no doubt that conservative movement is in search of trusted leadership, and is in a conflict with the GOP establishment, and is deeply dissatisfied. One thing should not be forgotten in our anguish: the politics is all about power. If you let somebody else take power, you lose. It is preferable to perfectly cynically choose bad over worse AND continue to build your own case for better until you have enough to seize the power by yourself. You want GOP to be more conservative - elect more conservative people everywhere, and continue pressure that we have seen a few times over the last years (Meyers, Dubai, immigration bill). It does work. Lets not choose the way of libertarian party’s irrelevance.

just to prove their purity.

McCain can kiss my azs, and the above statement is 100% false.
I am not voting McCain because he is nothing at all that I will ever vote for, no matter what party, and all of you others need to remember that this is a Conservative forum, not GOP dot com
