Hi Bradrock,
I feel just like you do!
That's my heart speaking....
Now for my brain....
McCain is NOT a true Reagan Conservative. Far from it. But in this election, Reagan would not have made it to Dec. 10th, 2007. Too far right. It sucks. But there it is.
McCain will fight the battles that he can win, and make himself a very small target that moves around a lot in the mean time. Smart. Slimy, but smart.
Ask yourself this question: Hillary appoints 3 Justices to the Supreme Court. Barrack Obama appoints 3 Justices to the Supreme Court. John McCain appoints 3 Justices to the Supreme Court.
Which of the above statements does not make you hurl immediately????
Ask yourself this question: Border Fence. Employer Enforcement. Mass deportation.
Which of the above statements is least likely to hit the 6:00 o'clock news?
Here is one that is close to my heart: Iraq, time to leave. Iraq, stay the course. Iraq, Iran; is there a difference?
I think you can guess that you and I are pretty close in beliefs, morals, and key issues. McCain is not my first choice. But he is the only choice that I have. Neither of the other two are even close. McCain can at least speak with authority when it comes to military matters. Waterboarding; I say GO! GO! GO! But McCain is a guy that I would shut up and listen to on this issue. Seems to me that he has at least 5 years of experience on me in this regard.
Hillary? Obama?
McCain is not terribly strong on immigration. But he is stronger than Bush Sr. or Jr. Stronger than Clinton, stronger than Reagan.....
Hillary??? Obama????
McCain opposed the Bush Tax Cuts.......
He favored smaller cuts for the top end, and more for the folks who live on $75,000 to $200,000. His system would not have created as much Federal income growth as Bush's plan. But a lot more people would have liked it.
Which plan has the better chance of getting popular support?
Christ! This is starting to sound like a 3rd grade primer......
O.K.
Off of my soap box now.
Take Care Bradrock....I feel your pain.
