John McCain is not perfect, but so wasn’t Reagan.
It might be rightly pointed out that McCain is not what we want a Conservative to be, but he is no worse than Ford, Nixon or GHWB. We will witness a moderate Republican Presidency, that will make us sometimes angry, but still generally glad that a patriotic grumpy veteran is in the White House and not a Communist Islamofascist enemy.
God has mercy on the US, and I pray that my fellow Conservatives will also have mercy on the US and spare us an Obama tyranny.
I’m an Arizona voter and McCain has pissed me off so bad that I’d like to whip his @ss. However, I will vote for McCain because an Obama administration means the end of the country I love. Hillary is a rightwing kook when compared to Barack Hussein. IMHO, we are slowly recovering from the damage done to our government intelligence agencies and military by Clinton. There is no recovering from Obama. It’ll be all over.
“I think McCain has a very good shot.”
As do I, he’s just liberal enough to capture some of the disaffected Hillary! voters.
“I don’t agree with him on all the issues, but I don’t think he’s the devil, like many here do.”
I do not consider him the devil, I consider him a political enemy.
“He’s got my wife’s and my vote.”
I would never ask you to do anything else with your vote, but I would ask you to not feign shock or surprise when he screws you over. He will. Remember the tale of the scorpion and the Frog.
“Besides 10% of the absolutists, purists, and unappeasable conservatives plus left wing liberals a majority of Americans are happy with John McCain and will vote for him this November.”
You are too funny, how many McCain points did you earn today posting this trash here?
A Conservative by their very nature is not a Liberal, which BTW means Socialist.
Go peddle stupid somewhere else.
I love you McCaintards resorting to attacks on those who oppose him.
I wouldn't rule out McCain carrying some New England states.
He may win, but not with my vote, as I said is your check in the mail?
The so called "absolute conservatives" are much less in number than they delude themselves to be. Soon they will become irrelevant like the Buchananites before them.
McCain will continue to kill our enemies. Obama will not.
IMO everything else is secondary..
McCain called a fellow Senator a profanity because that Senator objected to McCain and Kennedy’s plan to extend amnesty to illegal alien gang members.
Let the illegal alien gang-bangers cheer for McCain. I’ve got better things to do.
MW19 just signed up to post here today, a newbe.
Well in answer to that question. McCain is a scumbag socialist, Obama is a scumbag Marxist.
McCain has betrayed us, and I willnot support him unless he moves to the right of center.
Name one conservative serving in his campaign?
“I agree buddy. I will vote for him.”
Ditto. Please also contribute to his campaign.
Excellent post.
You wish to share what you are smoking? To name three that he has absolutely no chance in is easy: Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania. He will probably lose Florida, Virginia, Missouri, Tennessee, and perhaps Arkansas. He's pretty much already lost Colorado from the Bush column.
MW19 how many McCain points do you have today?
God is always in control!
If he picks Romney I will not be voting this year.
I don’t trust any man who claims that he knows God’s intentions. I didn’t see McCain mentioned in the Bible and you ain’t no prophet.
Since this is a Conservative site, not a Liberal Republican site, does that mean you and your friends are moving on to somewhere else?
You are a very brave person. I suspect that as we proceed through this campaign season, the amount of resistance to McCain by FReepers will decline as the two candidates are compared. I stand with you in support of John McCain during this election. All other alternatives are both unthinkable and unworkable.
