Is McCain an Acceptable Candidate?
Posted by Ben Mavy on January 09, 2008 at 02:26 PM
The number one issue for Republicans in this race should be judges, based on John McCain’s past and current positions Republicans CANNOT trust him:
Global Warming, Affirmative Action, the International Criminal Court, Guantanomo, Tax-cuts, McCain-Feingold, the Gang of 14, Amnesty(or Z-Visa if you don’t like that word), Christian leaders are “agents of intolerance”. McCain has not admitted to being wrong on any of these issues, with the exception of an apology to Christians for attacking Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson as “agents of intolerance.” I’m sure the apology was as sincere as any of his other straight talk.
As a person who believes in repentance and forgiveness I should comment on why these issues prevent me from EVER supporting John McCain. I believe that a man can repent and be forgiven, but that doesn’t exempt him from facing consequences.
I will not vote for someone who has cheated on their wife, period. McCain cheated on his wife with a beautiful 25 year old with enough family money to launch his political career.
Believe what you want about his supposed straight talk. I am grateful to him for his service to our country, but I would never vote for him.

One word: NO
I supported John McCain in 2000 before becoming a Bush supporter. I was impressed
by his military record and I found him to be a strong leader, yet after tolerating his antic in 2000 and deciding that he was not the Conservative that I thought he was. Its
clear that Romney was wounded in New Hampshire, but he is still in race and we need a candidate who is a Reagan Conservative not a McCain Moderate to rally the GOP troops in November.
There is a reason why I call him McScam… he won NH primary and went psycho.
He has been on a 7+ year rampage to screw the GOP and now he is trying it again.
I’d love to see his primary donor list – probably a ton of Dems.
