Guys, I am really conflicted. Two men I respect: Fred and Mitt, are implicitly or explicitly getting behind McCain on the premise that as sucky as he is, he's better than Hussein or Hitlery.

OTOH, I know what I know what I know....as they say. I agree in principle that McLame is better than the cheese eating surrender monkeys that have become the Democrats. And in my liberal days (I once was a diehard lib), I would've thought Hillary and Obama were AWESOME.

I do not want to work hard for McLame's election, but if he were to lose by only one vote in my state, and that vote were mine, and we got a U.S. President Obama or Hitlery, and we began to see what I fear would be a push for COMPLETE socialism, our republic would be doomed.

One of my biggest fears is the resignation, on January 22, 2009, of John Paul Stevens and Ruth Bader Ginsberg. You know those two old liberals are clinging on long enough to get a like-minded Soviet in the White House. With Hitlery or Hussein, they'll get it: and our chance at ALL to change the SCOTUS will be slowed for possibly another generation.

I even fear the Democrat Congress might try to increase the membership of the Supreme Court (they can do that, you know!) just to thwart the growing conservative wing of the justices.

I REALIZE having a President McLame will bring the danger of a liberal judge, too. But with a Democrat, we are guaranteed a liberal justice.

Ugh.

I might have to go pull the lever for McInsane, based on the SCOTUS.

I have to vote McCain. Having Hillary and Obama dismantle our Country and turn it over to the UN is more than I could take right now.

Not if FReepers can help it. Remember Harriet Miers. If McCain should win the Presidency we are bound by principle to hold his feet to the fire and stop any move he makes toward the left.

Unfortunately, he already backed off on his fiscal conservatism message by returning to DC to vote yes on the stimulus package.

I agree with you. We have to do what we have to do and deal with this mess. And I am going to hate to vote for McCain, but I will because I can't stand the thought of Pres Obama or Clinton.

Face facts people and quit being such damn drama queens.

Me, too. In the 06 election, now Senator Bob Corker was running against Harold Ford Jr. for US Senate. Everyone called him a RINO and said they were not going to vote. Well it was either vote for Corker or let Ford get it. I did vote for Corker. He won the election and he has been surprisingly conservative in the Senate. I am proud to have him as my Senator. Anyway I know even McCain would be much better than either of the other 2. I’m not ready to hand my beautiful beloved country over to people who are bent on destroying it. At least McCain fought for this country. That is a good thing.
