That's a fair comment...although, IMHO, your first post, for the reasons I pointed out, was not.

Here's the corrected version...there were quite a few typos in the first, and some comments left out, for the which I apologize.

Well, I strongly disagree with McCain's stance on immigration, campaign finance reform, the environment (particularly global warming), his original stance against the tax cuts, and his stated intent to close down Gitmo.

All of these are very non-conservative stances and exactly the wrong areas to try and "reach across the aisle" on.

I do not hate him, but I will fight him tooth and nail on those issues.

Having said that, he is much better than either Obama or Hillary because with them we will not only have to fight hard in those areas, but we will also lose more ground in those very areas IMHO, and also lose ground on abortion, the supreme court, the war on terror, and limiting spending by government.

I cannot countenance lessening the blood that has been spilt in the war on over abortion and making any of it in vain.

I also deeply respect his service to our nation and the sacrifices he made as a result.

As a result of all of that, I will vote for McCain over the others...but I will still insist on fighting him tooth and nail as regards the original issues (or any other non-conservative stances he may take) I spoke of.

Hope that helps clarify things.

“As a result of all of will vote for McCain over the others”

Actually, it does Jeff. In the original posting (above), it seems like you were saying “all will vote mclame”.

I apologize, thought you were just telling me how I was going to vote.
