I'm aware of the negative side of McCain and I'm still upset over how the media focused on him when he was criticizing Bush. I just think that we also have to look at the conservative issues that he has compared to other candidates. He's a free-trader too...voted against the tariffs and in favor of all the trade deals.
Also, assuming the war continues, they certainly won't be able to call McCain a "chickenhawk".

I admire Giuliani, but I don't trust him to uphold gun rights and choose conservative judges.

Negative side? Conservative issues? We are talking death of our MIL personnel. How do you call that negative and look for a conservative view in DEATH????

McCain has been saying a lot of the right things lately--everywhere, from sea to shining sea, in front of every camera that he can find.....but, he cannot be trusted, and trust is the most important thing in a Presidential candidate.

McCain is blind ambition, supporting the pet causes of the media.

His campaign finance "reform" bill trashed the first amendment and reformed nothing as campaigns easily circumvented its stupid provisions.

This legislation was so bad that no person who respected the liberties of the American people could have supported it, much less proposed it.

McCain's current pro-Iraq speechmaking is imho a calculated appeal to the Republican base.

He can't earn my trust--he has lost it for this lifetime.
