Anyone who refuses to vote in this election for John McCain CANNOT honestly call themselves a true conservative. No way, no how. No one cares about petty little tantrums — it’s like a hunger strike with no one watching.
Voting for a non-viable candiate is ALWAYS a wasted vote.
There are absolutely no viable third party candidates in this election. Barr, Nadar, and (gasp) McKinney stand no change whatsoever. If they cannot generate enough interest to poll high enough to be a contender, then they are not viable.
You’re not sending a message. You’re not registering an objection. You’re not voting none-of-the-above.
Wasting your vote on one of these candidates hurts America and TRUE conservatives do not wish to hurt America, the country conservative thought founded.
Not-Voting at all is NOT Patriotic or Conservative
Everyone with any sense knows that a Barack Obama presidency will be harmful to America in ways Gore, Kerry, even Carter could never have imagined. Staying home and withholding your vote from McCain does not gain you anything except a smug and patently false feeling of superiority.
Over the 231 years of this country, many men and women have fought, bled, and DIED for your right to vote. You dishonor them and their memory entirely with your petty passive aggressive whining.
True, withholding a vote from McCain is not actually giving a vote to Obama. But it’s not hurting him either. And it is hurting this country if your vote and voice is not added to the patriotic voices support America and McCain.
The top vote-getter wins in most states. Lending your support to McCain helps insure his victory and Barack Obama’s defeat (as well as standing firm as Americans against Socialism).
No, McCain does not have a great Conservative Record
Sure. He’s got some liberal ideas on things and sure he’s had some issues with conservatives in the past. However, of the two viable candidates (and there are only two)…
JOHN McCAIN IS THE MOST CONSERVATIVE OF THE TWO!!!
This is undeniable by anyone. Sure he’s voted the same way with Obama on a couple of issues. Sure he sponsored amnesty and got an earful from the populace and changed his mind. He’s willing to learn. He’s willing to take risks.
So, while he’s not every conservative’s dream candidate, he is the better of the two.
This all comes down to one simple question. Just one.
Who would you rather see in the White House?
Barack Hussein Obama – OR – John Sidney McCain
One of these two men will be President-Elect late tomorrow or Wednesday. No one else.
If you seriously believe yourself to be a conservative, you will gladly stand in defense of this country. You will set aside your personal goals, desires, and feelings the way so many of our soliders have over the years. You will do your duty for the country you claim to love.
You must vote if you’re a conservative.
You must vote in a way that truly matters
You must vote if you’re a patriot.
You must vote if you love America.
You must vote for Senator John McCain.
