Although I’m pleasantly surprised by Sen. McCain’s VP pick, I remain unsold on his candidacy. McCain voted for amnesty for illegals. AMNESTY. What difference does it make if we have a great VP when POTUS won’t support the most basic function of government — the defense of the borders?

I will never vote for Juan McAmnesty. If he renounces his stance on illegal immigration, I will reconsider my position; otherwise, he will never receive my vote. I’d rather suffer through four years of Obama and vote for Gov. Palin when she leads the GOP ticket in 2012 than give my endorsement to a man who won’t fight an invasion.

I can’t afford four years of Obama, with Pelosi and Reid running the Congress. I”m a small business owner in Ohio. Any more taxation, we go belly up.

I appreciate your view on McCain and Amnesty. I’ll just suggest we listen to McCain tonight, and consider what he says on that important topic.

Then, make a decision one way or another.

Thanks for the well thought out reply, it encapsules my own concerns...I’ve just gotten past it.

Problem is, if McCain goes down in November, Palin goes with him. 2012 will be lost as well.

So, looking at the long term and realizing that Palin is the future of the GOP, don't you think it is wise to just go ahead and cast your vote for McCain (really for Palin), and help get them elected, just so that she will be waiting in the wings in either 2012 or 2016? You gotta think strategically here.

Here's the 1992 version:

I will never vote for George McTaxIncrease. If he renounces his stance on guns and taxes, I will reconsider my position; otherwise, he will never receive my vote. I’d rather suffer through four years of Clinton and vote for someone conservative when they lead the GOP ticket in 1996 than give my endorsement to a man who is just a tax-raising, gun-hating Rockefeller Republican. [The term "RINO" didn't exist in '92].

That worked SOOOO well in 1992, didn't it? Oh, and we're still living with it - Clinton appointed Ginsburg and Breyer, as well as hundreds of federal judges still on the bench.

I made my mistake in 1992; I won't repeat it, and I hope that you will learn from it. The lesson: vote your heart and hopes in the primaries, and vote for the least bad candidate in the General.

I’d rather suffer through four years of Obama and vote for Gov. Palin when she leads the GOP ticket in 2012 than give my endorsement to a man who won’t fight an invasion.

If McCain does not win, Palin will not be setup for 2012.
