What you are saying makes sense. With a gun to my head to vote today, I’d have to vote crazy RINO over Hill or Obama.
However, it’s too soon. Emotions are too high. So many of us well-read, principled conservatives fought with all we had to try and help the more conservative candidates win, and now we are nursing our wounds. It really hurts. We DID NOT WANT McCain.
Now we’ve got him and we don’t need to rush to his side that fast. We’ve got many months to sit back and watch. I don’t think anyone here wants Obama or Clinton in the Oval Office. Just give us a little more time.
I understand, Yaelle. There does seem to be a Civil War going on all over the GOP right now and the sooner we release the anger and pent up frustrations, the better it will be for us going into the Convention and the better it will be for local campaigns as well.
I suspect that as time goes on, most of those who are right now saying they will never vote for John McCain will have a change of heart. It is true that we could fight a Dem President’s legislative agenda or judicial appointments, but we could not fight a Dem President’s Executive Orders or butchering of the military. I think those issues will end up tipping the scales before November.
