Well I respect to the death your right to vote for the glorious bundle of joy, and loyal to the death fellow, known as John McCain.

I probably won't vote for him. But come November I will probably be so sick of Hillary or Obama, that I will sleep walk my way to the polls and pull the lever for McCain as a reflex action.

Conservatives like you and me apparently are a dying breed. Either that or we don't care enough to vote in the Primaries. We had two honest to God conservatives in this race and together they couldn't pull in 10 to 15% of the Republican votes between the two of them. That means that we are a very small minority of voters. It's no wonder McCain isn't afraid to piss us off. When he does it, he gets support from the "independents". And it is the independents who have decided every election since they pushed Reagan into office in 1980.

Yeah. I wonder how Rush allegedly has twenty million listeners if we can’t get a decent conservative nominee.

Hey, I’ve thought it often. Maybe conservatives are a small minority in this country and we just THINK we’ve got big numbers.

McCain could care less about the conservative vote. He thinks he can carry the election with moderates, whoever they are, and disenchanted Dems.

He could be right. If he was worried about the great big bad conservative vote he would be doing things differently.

Like I said, maybe he’s right.

I guess I’ll just have to accept that conservatives are a minority.
