The McCain Pep Talk
February 8, 2008
Well, that settles it. Stick a fork in Mitt. He’s done. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D8ULL1R00&show_article=1
I guess that leaves McCain as the last man standing. Hooray? Not so much.
Yeah, I voted for McCain (oh the shame) but, there is a part of me that was really hoping Romney would pull it off at the last second. That part would, of course, be my conscience.
I am not exactly jumping for joy that McCain is our man. My main reason for giving my vote to McCain is exactly what a recent campaign ad of his pointed out: McCain is the only one who can beat Hillary or Obama. That is the most important thing to me and it should be to all conservatives. Nothing scares me more than socialized health care and troop withdrawal dates.
So, Limbaugh and Coulter want to say that they will support Hillary Clinton? GREAT! Go ahead, back Hillary in the name of publicity and ratings! I honestly think she may be easier to beat than Obama. I know plenty of democrats that can’t stand her, let alone republicans. I am not in love with McCain but, no one will be able to convince me that he is worse for America than either one of the democrats.
When it comes down to it, would you rather we have a left leaning republican or a far left democrat? Sometimes you just have to vote for the lesser of 2 evils.
So, swallow your pride Republicans. Man up! Grow a pair and admit that McCain is the only choice that we have! We have to stop whining and sounding like a bunch of spoiled liberals (I’m looking at you, Glenn Beck). We have to back McCain and sell him to the hard right because when republicans don’t vote, America loses! We can’t afford to lose anything right now, especially not the war.
Let us try to forget the fact that McCain is not a “true” conservative. Let us instead, wake up and realize that he is the only one running with any conservative values. If that is my only choice, I’ll take it. Besides, McCain is more conservative than people give him credit for. I disagree with him on many things but, the fact is he is strong on terrorism, fiscal responsibility and (for all you bible thumpers) he is pro-life. He may not be the perfect conservative, but he is the only conservative we have. We will just have to keep our fingers crossed about the environment and immigration.
So, quit your grumbling and put that McCain bumper sticker on your car. I will if you will. Ready? Set? You go first.
Where the heck is Jack Kemp when you need him?
Best phrase of this post–> “grow a pair”
Still praying for an alien ship to land on all of the candidates while they are together somewhere.

Cut corporate tax rates.
End AMT
Develop free market solutions for health care, and respect for the right of free individuals to make choices for themselves.
He could always be worse, although not by much.
I am standing with Huckabee until the end, he is NOT out of this race yet! ‘If’ and when McCain gets 1191 delegates & the nomination, only then I will vote for him because I believe he is better than the 2 Democrats that are still standing.
I guarantee, come election day, Limbaugh, Hannity and Coulter will line up and vote for McCain because both Hillary and (the annointed one) Obama would do more damage in a 4 year term. One thing I do believe about McCain, is he will not run for a second term. So Romney or whomever can spend 4 years getting ready to take a shot at the title in four more years. I suspect behind the scenes, Romney’s support of McCain in this election will ultimately lead to a McCain endorsement for Romney in the next. If that’s the case, I’ll tolerate McCain for 4 years, as long as he doesn’t appoint Al Gore as secretary of the environment. There’s only so much “reaching across the aisle” I can take.
BTW nice pic. =p
I always felt Jack Kemp deflated/wilted in ‘96.
I just read comment #3 and got a whole new mental image as to what occurs when they reach accross the isle.
