I think he was the best of a bad lot, myself. I like McCain better than all the other candidates, with the exception of Ron Paul, but he doesnt stand a chance of getting elected.
Its the end of the republican party. Soon we'll have the "liberal party" and the "extra-liberal party"
The fact is, we already have a liberal party and an extra liberal party. I am amazed that people refuse to see that it is already upon us.
The question to all of the pro-2nd amendment people on this board is, which liberal, Obama or McCain, will you choose to begin chipping away at your 2nd amendment rights? Make no mistakes, gentlemen, both of them will do it if given the presidency. If you vote for an anti-gunner like McCain, you will get an anti-gunner.

Question: WHY couldn't all of this have been brought up BEFORE we somehow stupidly allowed this weasel to be our only line of defense against Obama and Hitlary
McCain's liberalism has been apparent for at least 7-8 years. He has only gotten worse over time. He even toyed with the idea of leaving the Republican party after the 2000 election. In short, these things were apparent for all to see then, as it is now.
As for McCain being a defense against Obama... I don't see one liberal being a defense against another liberal. John McCain, in many ways, will be worse than anyone can imagine because, just as pro-2nd amendment people are supporting him now even though he is clearly anti-gun, they will also continue to support him as president for awhile as he explains the reasons why he must take away this right, and then another right.
One thing is for certain... the republican party is a former shadow of itself. I guess some voters have easily made the transformation from conservative to supporting liberal republicans. Others have chosen to stand on their principle and not support a party that nominates liberal candidates. I see no reason to ever support a liberal- ever.
