Let's look at your assertions one by one:
“A choice between Victory against Islamic Terrorism or surrender to our terrorist enemy.”
Probably. But Sen. McCain has some goofy ideas vis-a-vis Guantanamo Bay, “torture,” etc. that might impede the war against Islamic terror.
“A choice between free market capitalist economy or socialism.”
I'd rephrase it, “A choice between more socialism from Sen. McCain, and even more socialism than that from Sen. Obama.”
“A choice between constructionist judges or liberal judges who legislate from the bench.”
Maybe. At one point, Sen. McCain criticized the appointment of Justice Alito.
Sen. McCain loves to get along with his Senate Democrat buddies. I fear we'll get some more Souters and Kennedys than more Roberts, Alitos, Scalias, and Thomases.
“A choice between Life for the unborn or abortion on demand going wild.”
Maybe. Doubtful. I don't perceive any burning desire on the part of Sen. McCain to really work hard for the unborn. I don't see him using the bully pulpit of the presidency for the cause. I don't see him championing pro-life legislation, as President GW Bush has.
And I'm not sure that he isn't squishy on Supreme Court nominees, in which case, Sen. McCain will be little better than Sen. Obama, and in some ways, worse.
“A choice between lower taxes or higher taxes.”
Maybe. He sounds good now, but his prior distaste for the Bush tax cuts makes me wonder whether he'll abandon them quickly, rather than fight for them, in the face of a difficult Democrat Congress.
“A choice between small government or big government.”
Possibly around the edges. I think he'll try to do something in earnest about earmarks. But he isn't a movement conservative, or a real small-government conservative. He doesn't have a thought-out personal philosophy of how the government should do less, and do it with less.
“A choice between John McCain or Barack Obama.”
Scary. A choice between a freedom-of-speech suppressing RINO and an outright communist.
“Let us choose John McCain. A Patriot, a war hero, and would be an excellent President.”
He is a patriot and a war hero, but I don't think that he will be an excellent president. Not by a very long shot.
However, I think it's likely that he'll be better than Snob-ama.
As long as he doesn't pick a pro-abort for the Vice Presidency, I will likely vote for Sen. McCain.
“God Bless America and our brave troops.”
Amen.

Honest, fair and well-said. Bookmarked for later reference.
KSM insisted today that he be made a “Martyr” at the Military Tribunal in GITMO along with Ramsi bin alsheeb or whatever his stupid name is. They laughed and mocked their ACLU Lawyers and made the Court Artist change the the sketch of KSM ‘s nose... it looked too big!! The artist did so. The MILITARY COURT demanded.
And Commander McQueeg wants to close GITMO and give these pigs civil rights in the US of A????
SPARE ME!!
Who is really the Anti American?
This guy’s 19 year old kid is fighting in Iraq!
Somebody figure out this madness/pathology.
I cannot.
