It is very simple. Hilda-bama has no idea how to fight islamo facism. B. Hussein is especially clueless, if not sympathetic. I don't want this.........
>grumbling that Ohio senator Robert “Mr. Republican” Taft had not been nominated, voted for Eisenhower because he was clearly the better alternative to Adlai Stevenson.
>Was Eisenhower a conservative? No...
Come on - by this line of reasoning (sic) nobody who ever lived was a conservative.
Somehow, Eisenhower found his way to deporting the illegals at gunpoint...
From what I can tell, John McCain doesn’t want to be tainted with my vote.
“Dangerous toys should not be given to little boys.”
Wow. This means that if there are enough people like Daniel Oliver, McCain will win.
This author is content to be a lemming. Why, I don’t know.
Past actions are the best indicator of future results.
McQueeg should be nowhere near the Oval Office.
Your mileage may vary.
I refuse to vote for peanut butter, when I can always write in steak.

Eisenhower, Nixon, and Bush were not altogether conservative. BUT.
In the first place, the conservative base has been growing for years. It was gaining in momentum as recently as 2004. We have more conservative voters than ever before.
In the second place, McCain is far worse than any of those earlier candidates. Far worse.
So, we have a liberal candidate being shoved down the throats of a base that is much more conservative than it used to be. Why is this?
Well, people seem to say it’s not the RNC’s fault, it’s the Republican voters’ fault.
Not true. The deck was stacked. The primary season started with a bunch of leftist states and states where Democrats and “independents” were allowed to vote in Republican primaries.
McCain didn’t get a majority of Republican votes ANYWHERE. By the time we got to places where a conservative candidate might have won, however, the conservatives had been forced from the race by the MSM and the so-called conservative gurus. Huckabee guarded McCain’s flank in the states where southern evangelicals hang out, while the unelectable Mitt Romney took the rest of the oxygen from the real conservatives.
I voted for Eisenhower, the first time I voted, because Taft was an isolationist, and I thought Ike would do a better job of confronting the Soviet Union. He did.
But I’m not voting for McCain. He will sell out our country. This whole business is being rammed down our throats, and I refuse to swallow it.
I generally agree with the feelings of the author. McCain is not my first choice for the Republican nomination; however, he has gotten the most votes, fair and square.
I will never let someone tell me not to vote.
The man is too stubborn and stupid to get it. And even if he does stop, and makes a few blind promises, few would believe him. He made his bed...
The biggest, maybe only, reason to vote for McCain is HillObama.
Here we go again, the hold your nose scenario, half-a-loaf, lesser-of-two-evils - whatever you want to call it. It’ll be 2012 and the GOP will nominate another RINO and conservatives will be told they have to support the RINO or else...the government will get bigger! As if it hasn’t already from 2000-2008. No thanks.

For some reason, the Republican party thinks eliminating conservatives, paleos, and small l libertarians is a winning strategy.
Why I Could Care Less What Daniel Oliver Does With His Vote By DustyMoment
Gee, another “why I am going to vote for McCain” article. Looks to me people have to convince themselves by putting down on paper and telling the world why they must vote for McCain. It is starting to be rather funny.
If you want to vote for him, vote for him. Who the hell cares?
Four reasons to vote for McCain:
—Earlier this week, Obama voted against the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). This would severely undermine our intelligence gathering capabilities in the war against radical Islamic extremists.
—Obama has voted against a bill protecting homeowners from being sued by burglars they shoot in their own homes.
—Obama would implement the largest tax increase in American history - by not making the Republican tax cuts permanent.
—Obama has voted against Illinois ‘s version of the Born Alive Infant Protection Act. This act is designed to protect those babies who survive an attempted abortion.
Nope ... tired of all the “lesser of two evils” scenarios. Been stuck in it too long. Time to vote my conscience. I’ve accepted the inevitability of a liberal in the POTUS seat (whether with an “R” or a “D” in the title) and am turning my sights on Congress. No ... I won’t vote for McCain.
