We screwed up royally in this primary by not nominating a conservative in the first place. My goal now is to do all I can to NOT have Hillary or Obama occupy the WH. I cannot in good conscience vote 3rd party after we already have a nominee.
I would be more than willing to work toward getting a Reagan conservative candidate for 2012, whether McCain is really only going to serve one term, or to have that candidate run against President Obama.
Is that from some sense of Republicanism, then?
I mean, the same does not apply for me, as I removed myself from the Republican Party once Hunter was out of the race. I gave support to Keyes, but I am no longer committed to Republicans at all. I will support Conservatives, but party affiliation means nothing to me anymore.
What is it that leaves you 'stuck with McCain', no matter what? If that Reagan Conservative I mentioned was pulling more votes than McCain according to polls, would you still be unable to make the jump?
