Asking someone to suck it up and quit whining is not a violation of free speech. Seeing that charge repeated endlessly on this thread makes me think there may be little hope for rekindling conservatism, because even the people who are so “conservative” they’ll accept Obama over McCain don’t have a clue what free speech is.

I have great hope for the future of conservatism because of folks that will not accept a liberal just because he has a (R) following his name. Some others are glad to see the continued leftward movement of the republican party. I am a conservative, not necessarily a republican, and I don't vote for liberals.

How many, and which, of your core conservative values have you had to compromise in order to support McCain?
