Yeah, Kennedy is his buddy. You think he’s going to push any conservatives through, you’re fooling yourselves. The best we’ll get will be another Sandra Day O’Connor or Kennedy or worst of all, a turncoat like Souter.

However, JM has made it abundantly clear he does not like conservative judges.
So what kind of judges would he appoint?

Nah, I think its time to start a new party. The GOP has been wasted by the Rinos. There is nothing left to salvage. The political system needs to be changed. Now is as good a time as any.

mclame will not only destroy the country as well, but leave a black eye on the republican party. What I don’t understand is how come so many people cannot see mclame for the lib he is? I will NOT step in line like a good little pubbie.

Oh please. McCain has already said that he wouldn’t appoint another Alito as he is too conservative. Lets face it, the days of conservatives having any say are over. Next scare tactic will be, “vote McCain or you will get Hillary” like that worked really well in ‘04 with the “vote republican or you will get Pelosi.”

“Note to the GOP:

I’M GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF HOLDING MY NOSE!!!!!!!!!”

If you’re willing to give in on McCain, I’m pretty sure the GOP has nothing to worry about with you.

'Wears conservatism on his sleeve...' is all I'm saying.

Attached with velcro.

Thanks but no thanks. What the hell difference does it make if a dem is in or McNasty? McNasty is no conservative and whay would he govern as one? I am done with the RNC and the GOP. I will not vote for McNasty regardless of his vp choice. I will write in, expect a jimmy carter presidency and if the country is still around in 2012, we will start over....

The party must not take the conservative vote for granted.

“Put up any Republican, they’ll HAVE to vote for them!”

This is like the dems and the african-American vote, year after year.

The amnesty fight taught them nothing- if we now all vote for McCain, the party will have learned that thay can indeed take us all for granted. We wil have rewarded them for putting up a very liberal group for us to choose from. “It works!” they’ll say. “We won!”

Having learned that “it works”, what will be the next slate? More liberal, or more conservative, than the one they know “works”?

“Is there a better chance from a rat?”

Equally likely, IMO.

I would actually prefer to have a Dem in the White House rather than McCain. My big concerns with this country are in the domestic area.

Maybe, just maybe, the RINO’s in Congress would fight back in this situation. If McCain is president, he’ll get rubber stamped.

The best we can hope for is massive gridlock.

“no difference between the 2 dims and McCain.”

McCain gets and 82 lifetime ACU rating and 65 2006
Hill gets 9 and 12
Bama 8 and 8
sorry there is a big difference
granted i am no lover of McCain and did not vote for him in the primary but in the general i will vote against Hill/Bama by voting McCain

The only “wasted” vote is a non-vote. The only way to vote is to vote your conscience. I only vote for conservatives and, therefore, cannot support the presumptive GOP nominee McCain. There is no reason at all to encourage the GOP to continue giving us these terrible choices. The party has chosen the wrong road.

How about if McCain picks J.C. Watts as a running mate?

I like the National Party concept focused on borders, language and culture...but don’t call it National (too close to Nationalist and the MSM will hammer it before it starts)

How about American Party...Borders Borders Borders, it’s the main issue both Parties are screwing Americans on...hell even Trumpka and his union puppets would be tempted lol.

So better Hillary than McCain? Better Obama than McCain? I’d say that’s true only if you really don’t care about America and you’d rather the country go further to the Left. In life, we often don’t get all that we want, but we often have to choose between the worse of two choices we don’t want - the lesser of two evils.
