[Always Right]

Not unless something better comes along. This is one battle in a long war.

It is a long war, and this is a battle, you are right. Suppose McCain loses out to Hillary or Obama this year. Then conservatives will want to gear up and plan for the 2010 mid terms and 2012 presidential election. And if McCain wins, he’s getting old, he may not run for re-election in 2012.

The Clintons were criticized for running the permanent campaign, but maybe it’s a good idea. There will be events and candidates and issues to consider beyond whatever happens in this years election cycle.

I’m with you. This has shades of 1976 on it. I’m not out. (They won’t be getting any checks from me until I see some conservatives though).

That's the best way to look at this. Scattering the conservative vote to the four winds isn't going to do anyone any good.

Besides, there really isn't anything better. The Constitution Party are even bigger kooks than the Libertarians.
