Suppose that Giuliani were the nominee instead of McCain. The pro-Giuliani argument would be:

“We know that Hillary and Obama will nominate pro-abortion judges. Giuliani has promised that he will appoint judges like Scalia, Thomas, Alito and Roberts, and he might keep his word.”

Similarly, at CPAC McCain promised he would secure the border first, but since then he has shown signs that he is not going to keep his promise.

On May 13 2008, he did not vote for the Sessions amendment that would have required a “zero tolerance” border policy and mandated a sorely needed (especially after 9/11) Visa Exit system. Also, he has been telling Republicans not to be tough on immigration.

I won’t vote for Hillary or Obama, but it’s difficult for me to vote for someone who, although he keeps repeating his promise, shows no interest whatsoever in keeping it.

If it was Jule vs. Hillobama, I'd vote for Julie.

You know, fixing this country means fixing the Democratic Party too. If they get beat every time they put up a gun-grabbing, pro-abort, military hater, they will eventually stop, even if the person beating their gun-grabbing, pro-abort is a gun-grabbing, pro-abort who has proclaimed that he has repented.

We will all be better off.

Suppose that Giuliani were the nominee instead of McCain. The pro-Giuliani argument would be:...

If the nominee were Giuliani, the pro-Giuliani argument would be exactly the same. Of the three remaining, the Republican is the best choice, be it Giuliani or McCain.

I supported lots of other candidates before my choices were narrowed down to McCain on February 8th. The only Republicans lower on my list were Huckabee and Paul. But compared to any of the Democrats, but particularly to Mr. Obama or Mrs. Clinton, McCain is much much better.

So I want McCain to win. So I buckle down and make that happen. Whining about how little I like McCain is not going to help.

And, as you note, "putting pressure" on McCain and getting him to promise us the Moon and the stars on border security, or whatever issue, is not going to matter, because he is going to do what he is going to do, anyway.

So you recognize the situation for what it is (It Sucks), and move forward the only way you can (Go McCain!).
