Look. I posted on this thread because I was watching the Sunday talk shows. I posted a troublesome quote from McCain. What did I get back from those on a so-called “conservative” forum? Insults, attacks, and others like you talking behind my back.

Is this really what it has come to? That we can’t honestly discuss the pluses and minuses of candidates or else we will somehow weaken said candidate? What about the people? This farce of a two-party system where they are all for bigger more intrusive government will destroy this great nation. As so many are so involved in campaigns, they don’t even care about what happens *after* the election or what their candidate actually does as long as they *win* and they have the right (letter) next to their name.

This is utter craziness!

And I am here in support of calcowgirl and other like-minded real conservatives, not the posers, sellouts, and RINO trolls who are hanging out here, worshiping McQueeg.

Uhhh sorry but utter craziness is bemoaning a candidate that has been chosen who agrees with us on at least a majority of his views.

The primaries are over we have McCain/Palin, if you don't like them then like you can wait until 2012(or vote for ubummah/plugs) and try and change the equation.It's not gonna change now.

It won't change just because you complain.

McCain/Palin have BOTH fought for fiscal responsibility all their political careers!

Seriously: no matter how troubling McCain is, there is a choice of two in November:

- McCain/Palin
- Obama/Biden

There are no other choices. Objections to McCain/Palin all have to be weighed in one light: does it change the answer of which ticket to vote for. I believe that to anybody with a conservative or libertarian disposition, the choice of Palin has clearly and strongly swung the balance to McCain, and unless you have something to counter such reasoning. what you’re posting is either mere disruption or useless fluff.

I’m for a living wage for all Americans, too... They should do what they need to earn it.

I agreed with a post. You did not receive a post from me nor did I mention you in a post. That makes it your problem, not mine.

As for the arguments today, I’ve read most but have not posted nor expressed an opinion.

You posted a troublesome quote by McCain? I can give you a bunch of them by him that are troublesome to me.

The USA is not Europe where the system supports numerous parties. There are times I wish we did but we don’t. There has not been a successful third party created since the Republicans before the Civil War. As much as I understand someone leaving the Republican party over principle, the fact remains change can only happen from within by conservatives who work to make that happen.

If you are here after the election, I am certain you will see a bunch of comments on John McCain, but you are right in one major aspect. In order to hold McCain’s feet to the fire, or change his mind on anything, he has to win first.
