It doesn't matter how you feel about McCain. The fate of Western Civilization is in the balance.

I’d settle for one that’s on my side of the aisle.

With every insult my resolve is further solidified.

Absent some 180 degree reversals, the GOP nominee will not get my vote. I don’t think he needs it anyway.

I wish someone would start a ping list of people who have to contemplate how much they are going to have to drink in order to vote for McCain.

I am thinking a fifth of Maker’s Mark and a small glass of water and it’s only June....

I don't know if these McCain people know how they sound, but they are so shrill and mean they remind me of liberals. The title of this thread borders on hysteria.

One minute some of them are saying that we who won't support McCain are an irrelevant one percent of the population, then the next they say we are going to elect “President Obama.” Well which one is it?

McCain is a lunatic. He's a betrayer. He's indistinguishable from Democrats on many issues. If the war is their bag, I would say people should vote for McCain. Other than that, McCain is a rattlesnake and can't be trusted. If he wins, bad for us. If he loses, bad for us.

>>>>Sorry, I’m voting for the NON-socialist candidate this time. Barr has my vote>>>

Don’t say “sorry” to us....say it to your children and grand-children.

Completely agree.

I will not cast a vote for someone based on their opponent being worse.

“say it to your children and grand-children.”

No need, I'll have nothing to be sorry for.

I do not for a moment buy into your BS equivalence theory.

(non vote = vote for Obama, etc.)

My vote will be FOR a candidate or none at all, end of story.

Making it easier for a MARXIST to become POTUS because you don’t like McCain can’t be in the BEST interest for your nation.

If McCain or Obama wins, I might have to do just that.

"Sorry, I tried to do my part to haul our Country back from the brink of socialist destruction, but it was a 2 Party system at the time with BOTH major parties candidates advocating varying levels of socialism".

At least I'll be able to look at the guy in the glass and not flinch. Knowing what we know about McCain, can you say the same?

Which Marxist are you talking about? McCain or Obama? Both voted against taxes cuts, for global warming nonsense, for cap and trade, for illegal alien shamnesty programs, etc...

You are going to have to be more specific if you want to be taken seriously.

John McCain hires former CIA director (under Bill Clinton) Jim Woolsey as green advisor

"For 30 years Jim Woolsey has been a hawkish guardian of American national security. As director of the CIA under Bill Clinton he lived every day with the terrorist threats to his homeland."

So the best 'the bestest possible republican candidate ever' can do for a trusted advisor is a man who helped set the stage for 9/11 with his ineffectual responses to the little terrorist attacks???

*sigh*

Bring on the apologists to explain how and why this is a Smart Move.

Never mind. I already know. It's bipartisan, he's reaching across the isle, the clinton appointees weren't so bad, it will help him get the internationalist and muslim vote, it...

I'd settle for one who likes Americans.

Sorry for your misunderstanding, My vote, much like respect, is earned, not given. I don’t dislike McCain, just his policy positions.

Again, not voting for one is not a vote for the other or “making it easier”.

I agree re getting those antacids ready for the general election in November.

Seriously, though, I will have NO problem voting for McCain over the Obamination. It seems to me that we cannot just sit by, refusing to vote, and watch the “magical” one take over. Had Hillary been the Dems candidate, that would have been something else again. Obama is altogether too dangerous in so many ways to stand by and not vote.

Woolsey was the CIA director that Clinton refused to meet with. He was Director for two years and never had a one-on-one meeting with Clinton.

Good point. I am unable to vote in US elections but my wife can by mail. She can sometimes get past my emotionality and provide a pragmatic understanding of what is at stake.

I told her about a company I invested in called Barrick Gold. I don't like the people who lead the company. I don't like what the company stands for. But I bought shares anyways because they were undervalued and sold it on a pop for a profit.

So she said “see, you made a decision to do something despite your pride and disgust. Voters must do the same with McCain”

Yes, it is about the war on Islam. But also the Supreme Court. And I truly believe Obama and the Congress will make Ayn Rand's vision in Atlas Shrugged a reality.

What is this. You post only articles from this other site and never reply to any of the comments on your threads. Are you being paid by Modern Conservative to advertise their site?

I know there is at least one other Freeper who is dreading the hangover.

I am sure there are more of us out here.

Perhaps is should be the “Reluctant Drinking Voters With Hangover's Voting Reluctantly For McCain” ping list.
