Well put Mr Ed.
Conservatives need to stand their ground and not move towards McCain. He knows how to get our vote. all we need to do is wait in order to gain a bigger voice at the table.
Otherwise, I agree. I think we can better defend against a Democrat President then attempt to fight a Republican.
“McCain is very simply a pro-war liberal, someone who is diametrically opposed to everything they stand for. “
Nonsense, McCain supports most conservative ideals. He also supports a few very bad liberal ideas. If you choose to focus on the latter and ignore the former, fine. But McCain is has voted for every conservative judge nominated by a Republican president. He voted agaisnt Bush on Medicare prescription drugs, despite a large senior population in his home state. He has been a consistant supporter of the military, property rights, and has been pro-life. I get sick of anyone who isn’t always conservatively correct being labeled a “liberal” or “socialist”. It’s childish.
No it will be McCain’s fault and no one else.
They may or may not be sincere when they wobble on not immediately pulling the troops.
What does any first term president want? A second term.
Obama and Clinton both know that if they fail on their promise to bring the boys home that they will feel the rath of Move On, George Sorros and the Webroots when reelection time rolls around.
As much as I detest McCain, I am not willing to bet my life or my freedom on a wasted vote for a third party candidate.
I think Newt has sold us out with his support for global warming.
How would you prevent Obama from appointing judges, when the Dems control the Senate?
Bitter Conservatives will be blamed for all time.
Bitcon desertion elected Obama...... that will be the history forever.
Here, here, well said.
Why Third Party Voters Should Not Be Blamed For McCain’s Upcoming Defeat
I think you nailed it........ McCain isn’t going to lose with or without the other than Obama voters. They are only of consequence in their own mind. JMO of course.
If you vote your conscience, why is it considered a waste? What do we get if McCain wins? More of the same old Bush crappola.
McCain and Bush are hardly the same, but if you vote third party, you might as well have saved the gasoline spent going to the polls.
One issue overshadows any position conservative or otherwise McCain holds, amnesty.
When he gets his way, conservatism will be render to the dustbin of history.
He cannot appoint conservative judges because he hates conservatives.
Both of them have stated that we will have to have troops there in to the future.
Democrats will not want to be saddled with the loss.
And are the conservatives around here now single-issue voters? Do we have a litmus test that is an absolute go/no-go? I thought we left that to the DUmmies.
Question: Has McCain *ever* voted against any judge, whether nominated by a Republican president or a Democrat president?
I know he had all praise for Clinton's picks.
McCain has voted to confirm every single conservative judge.
Yeah, he really hates them.
How will you stop McCain from appointing Liberal judges?
How will you stop McCain from raising taxes?
How will you get McCain to build the fence?
I did not desert McCain, he said he didn’t need the conservative vote.
I agree with him.
Be a Maverick in the GOP, go against everything McCain wants.
The war cannot be the only priority, however. If we continue to support abortion, euthanasia, the gay agenda, and other liberal policies we will destroy ourselves more thoroughly than even if the muslims took over. At least they have some values unlike the extreme progressives.
