If McCain was really pulling support like this, he'd have a lot more in donations. The votes are just mischief.
When pressed to answer a question about illegal immigrants in his home state, Sen.
McCain refuses to answer, while his supporters tell a woman who wants him to answer
the question to shut up and she is thrown out of the town hall meeting. See the video

Here are some other reasons why we need to defeat McCain:
1. Wants to Close Gitmo. This would be counterproductive to our war on terror and
endanger US citizens when these terrorists are given US Constitutional rights as US
prisoners.
2. Against Water boarding. If McCain does not have the stomach to have the mastermind
behind 9/11 aggressively interrogated, he should not have the power to send our
soldiers into battle. This guy is more concerned about what the elite media and the
socialists of Europe think of us than what the US military and citizens think.
3. Wants Trade Caps. McCain admits a limited knowledge of economics, as a 27-year
Washington insider, and his support of this in the last debate will KILL JOBS.
4. Wants Carbon Taxes. This is another job killer based on the hoax of global warming.
Raising taxes on businesses ALWAYS results in economic problems because
businesses — the entities that create jobs — have to cut personnel, overhead and
expansion to pay for the bogus taxes and stay profitable.
5. Admits Ignorance of Economics. See the previous two bullets as evidence of this.
Romney has run businesses efficiently and he can bring that expertise to cut
government and save taxpayer money.
6. Possible Kerry VP. McCain’s only allegiance is to McCain, not the American people. He
is selfish and he demonstrated that in South Carolina when he said ‘it’s my turn.’
7. McAmnesty. The unenforceable provisions of the McCain / Kennedy bill would have
amounted to a flood of millions of low-skilled workers from south of the border who see
this as a free ride. There is no way that the government could collect $3000 from the
12-20 millions who are already here. To believe this is to have false faith in the efficiency
of government. If you don’t secure the border first, there is nothing to stop millions of
low-skilled workers from turning our nation into Mexico Norte.
8. Social Security for Illegals. This is another part of McAmnesty that shows McCain’s
economic ignorance. The system has be turned over to the individuals who have been
paying into it so they can use their money as they wish. Accepting illicit funds from
illegals who have used stolen SSNs is not the way to fix social security.
9. Seriously Considered Leaving GOP. Again, it’s McCain’s way or the highway and I
suspect that he’d be a democrat if he thought he could get elected as one. This was
recently documented in an article on Politico.com.
10. Against Energy Independence. McCain is against drilling in ANWR and this keeps us
more dependent upon foreign nations for our energy supply. This is unacceptable.
11. He voted against the Bush tax cuts. Even moderate democrats voted with Bush on
the tax cuts that helped spur the economy in the wake of 9/11. The only other republican
who voted with McAmnesty was Lincoln Chafee. Both guys should have their portraits
in the RINO hall of shame.
12. Mainstream Media Favorite. The New York Times endorsed McCain and all TV
networks love this guy because he attacks conservatives at every turn.
13. Phony Conservative Record. McCain’s “83% American Conservative Union rating is
ONLY on pro-life votes, which is good but it does not tell the whole story. The fact that
McCain / Fiengold attacked free speech and pro-life at the SAME TIME! Just ask the
Wisconsin right-to-life folks (see link below). McCain’s OVERALL rating was 65%
