When looking for clues on why you hate Palin so, we see things like this, during the discussion on choosing a veep for McCain, when conservatives were hoping and insisting on a conservative to balance the ticket, you posted in answer to this statement."“If he picks a pro-baby murder VP, large portions of the base will sit home and watch him lose.”" It does tell us why you are called a big R liberal.
Here is a good example of the “far right”. It doesn't matter that McCain is much better on the WOT, the size of government, how he will pick SC nominees or even that he is pro-life himself. If he picks A VICE PRESIDENT (?) that isn't solid on abortion the pro life crowd will sit out the election and insuring that a militant anti-pro-life candidate sits in the White House, signing pro-abort legislation and nominating militant pro-aborts to the SC.
I believe that's called cutting off your nose to spite your face. It's also why true conservatives who understand how the political game is played is getting tired of the ultimatums issued from the “far right”.You sound like spoiled children threatening to hold your breath of you don't get exactly what you want.
Yes, pro-lifers would rather see the man stand on principle and lose than to embrace a baby murderer.

Can you procide the link to that statement as it doesn’t look “right”.
My point was McCain has been pro life his entire life and has always received good marks from pro life grups. My objection was that if McCain didn’t pick the “correct” running mate pro lifers would desert his campaign ensuring a pro abortion President.
McCain would have made the right choices conerning this issue, why throw it all away based on the choice of running mate?
To me that is cutting off your nose to spite your face. Disagree if you will but my reasoning was solid.
