Like it or not it is McCain

Yeah Skinny, you closet liberal.

As for Huckabee, I really wish he could have gotten a toehold. People, conservatives, touted Romney as the conservative of the group, but was he?

Other than matters with taxes as governor, Huckabee had more conservative views than Romney, unless Im missing something? And as for the taxes, Arkansas has been just above Mississippi in sucking hind teat for years and years in many sectors, until Mike came along. Im not too sure they didnt need to do something. I think their taxes were from the stone ages. So that could have been out of context.

On social matters, I know Huckabee was stonger. I really wish money wasnt such a factor. If more had known him, this may have been a whole new ballgame. He was more of a regional candidate because of his lack of funds.

As for the original topic, I guess Ill hold my nose and pull the lever for McCain. I hope there arent too many "suicide voters" out there that do something stupid like vote none of the above, independent or even liberal, in protest. That will commit suicide for the entire country.

On the other hand, if its Clinton, she has enough enemies and McCain is middle of the road enough, that he may be able to beat her. If its Obama, I know there are a ton of people, including hispanics, that will go for McCain over him.

As much as I hate it, a liberal leaning republican may be the only way out of this mess at the moment.
