I listened to Rush today and he had some very good points about the current state of leadership, or rather, lack thereof, in the Republican party and how just letting John McCain gain the Presidency wouldn’t solve any of the really important problems Republicans face. I must say, I considered with holding my vote. I will this Tuesday in the MD primary for sure.

But then, I listened to Mitt at CPAC. His point was that we are at war and the Democrats, if allowed to gain the Presidency will not fight the War on Terror. They will seek appeasement and that appeasement will get Americans killed, potentially by the millions. This is totally unacceptable.

I do not like Mr. McCain. I believe him to be emotionally unstable. However, the one thing I know for sure about him is that he supports the War on Terror and the troops and for that reason alone, I will give him my vote in November. America first, politics second. I won’t like it and will work to have him replaced or mitigated as soon as possible but to allow a Democrat into the White House at this critical time in history would be a deadly mistake for this country and however much I can’t stand John McCain, I just can’t be a part of allowing that to happen.

McCain could get us killed, too. Think about it. He could nuke Arab countries, or anyone else who pissed him off.

I really don’t think Hill will be pulling us out, i expect her to go more to the middle than mccain. I am series.
Rush makes a good point that i made in a slightly different fashion a while back, but it will be easier for the gop and the blue dog dems to fight hillary than mccain.

He could also endanger us with open borders and amnesty.
