McCain or Bust...Conservatives, will you vote?

Posted on 02/07/2008 12:06:38 PM PST by WiseGuyF686

No articles on here, I apologize. I just wanted to bring a little bit of opinionated discussion in at this point, now that we stand on the brink of setting American back 4-8 years...

The conservative candidates are out of race, and it looks like it's McCain or bust. How many of you will close your eyes and vote for McCrazy over Obama or Hillary, in order to do minimal damage to America over the next preidential term...and how many of you will sit home and watch the sky fall?

Personally, I'll do just about anything to keep the Clintons at bay, including vote for John McCain.

I will vote FOR Hillary or Obama to represent “Them” rather than McCain to represent “me”. Apparently, it’s going to take breaking this nation before it can be fixed. I’d much prefer to fight the fight during my lifetime rather than passing it on to my children.

That would be having to assume we still have any influence with the GOP. I do not believe we do any longer. At least, not at the present time.

I’ll vote McCain if it’s Hillery—can NEVER have a woman president.
If it’s Obama, I’ll vote Constitution Party or write in Duncan.

When Reagan was elected a lot of us believed that the size of government would actually decrease.

It didn't happen, and barring some catastrophe it probably won't happen.

To think otherwise is to be deceived or disappointed.

In the excerpt you posted Reagan commends some state governors, probably because they kept taxes and spending low.

That's good and commendable. I wish we had more of that. But it doesn't amount to a "movement" in the way that a lot of people use that term.

So you like liberal Justices on the Supreme Court? That’s what Hillary and Obama will appoint. Thanks!

I would rather have a dim as President with the Republican’s in active opposition to McCain enacting most of the same policies with no fight from the right. I’m also not convinced that McCain’s Supreme Court nominations would be significantly better than Hitlaries.

I may go so far as to vote for Clinton or Obama.

Go Huckabee. Yeesh.

The Supreme Court Justices the Dem's will appoint will break this nation for a long time to come, not just the damage the four years in the Presidency the Dem's will do. I would rather clean up after McCain than Hildabeast or Obamanation.

appoint=nominate
Might as well be appoint since there will not even be a ripple of protest by the controlling Dem’s

Convince me that McNutt will appoint better supremes than either idiot from the left and maybe I’ll vote for him. I just don’t see it.

Had you voted for Gore in 2000 a true conservative movement would be in it’s seventh year. When are folks going to realize that we are the ones who will have to kick-start this engine? The RINO’s sure aren’t going to do it. We face the same decision this election. Bite the bullet and make sure McCain ISN’T elected. Perhaps next election we’ll get candidates WE want.

McCain doesn’t get it at all.

He knows the troops shouldn’t be pulled from the battlefield were the fight is going on..under him I’m not worried about a cut n run policy pulling the rug out from under them. That he gets. The troops don’t deserve a Democrat.

We can either wait until the day after the election to start thinking about building the future of the Republican Party, or we can start thinking about it today. What would best reconstruct the GOP? The answer is clear--having to deal with the opposition in a nominal position of power.

Somebody will emerge as the champion in dealing with McCain, Obama, or the Beest, and maybe that man is trying really hard to get elected to Congress this fall. I'll be damned if I waste a breath, much less a dollar, towards Juan McCainiac, when I could be spending those precious things on that future leader.

No vote for McPain under any circumstances, the kool-aid stops here.

What would 9/11 with Gore have looked like? It’s not us who must bite the bullet. Are you willing to allow the Judiciary to be slanted more left? They stay a lifetime not just 4 years. I do believe the Republican Party has left the true conservatives, but unless we get a 3rd party (too late now) in there to have our voices heard, the RINO is the way to go this time.

It’s even more important to truly not stay at home on November 4 while voting for truly conservative candidates for political offices at each and every level-even if people decide to ignore the Presidential race! Just because a majority of people reject all of the remaining candidates for POTUS doesn’t equally also mean that they should equally punish all of the other candidate who are also running for other political offices by having a majority of voters decide to stay at home instead!
