Barr will get my vote and money.

I am dropping my support for the GOP...after supporting it as a member for over 36 years I give up on it. There are few conservative voices in the R party anymore. That fact is represented by the many knee pad party hacks that post Republican partisan claptrap at this site these days.

It is odd to see self proclaimed conservatives tout support for our international adventurism all over the world as a winning strategy when disapproval for such is so wide spread...Nearly 7 of 10 Americans oppose our actions in Iraq and the Balkins while reality impaired neo cons continue to insist that the same American people will support the candidate who promises to continue same.

The neo cons and theocons have destroyed the GOP as a vehicle for conservatism and the dialog at this site these days more and more resembles the hateful rhetoric spewed at DU, and is indicative of the same type mental process practiced by liberals. True conservatives will not allow a political party to redefine the principals of conservatism though there is a mighty effort within the GOP to do so. McCain is the poster child for this effort and I for one am not buying into it.

Well said, though I will probably write-in Ron Paul. At least HE is one I can actually vote for without having to hang my head in shame!

“I for one am not buying into it.”

I’m not buying into it either.

But we need to have priorities in life, and my priority is preventing Barack Obama from becoming our 44th President.

I now oppose actions in Iraq and Afghanistan but at the time of the initial advances into those countries had a “wait-and-see” attitude to find out if they were going to do it right. They didn’t do it right. Had it been done right then the “Islamic uprising” would already be dead as well as all of the participants.
