I find it comical that McCain supporters insist that conservatives are making perfection be the enemy of the good.

That is incorrect.

But the acceptable is the enemy of McCain.

"President Bush, speaking on "Fox News Sunday," responded "absolutely" to host Chris Wallace's question of whether John McCain was a "true conservative." McCain is "very strong on national defense," is "tough fiscally," "believes the tax cuts ought to be permanent" and is "pro-life," Bush noted."

Guess it takes another "real conservative" to know one, uh?

The McCain Mutiny. Ought to come with it’s own line of rattles and diapers.

The GOP has a great opportunity to win with McCain. If conservatives waste this opportunity, while Democrats are committing suicide by still chosing between two candidates, thenm, it will be ridiculous.

The GOP is winning, and it is useless to add that nobody bet a cent on it one year ago. Take this chance.

If Republicans are waiting for another Ronald Reagan or someone with his credentials, they might as well start trying to figure out how to be a good, obedient socialist. The generations of morally strong, respected national figures are gone. We are well into the MTV-CBS educated society. John McCain might not be my first pick either, but I will not help Hillary or Obama get elected by trashing McCain.

George Bush insists John McCain is a true conservative.

I saw that. These people must think conservatives are stupid as box of rocks.

How would the compassionate conservative know what a real conservative looks like?
