Great site. I just found it. Why in the world are there so many people for for McCain. After he buddies up with Ted Kennedy and tried to give 20 million illegals, amnesty. Hasn’t the GOP learned their lessons from 2006? have they forgotten why Abraham Lincoln became a republican. (because the whig party was pro-war).
Are the Republicans trying to loose?
I will write in Ron Pauls name if I have to. I will not vote for the lesser of any evil. And I will not vote “against” anyone anymore.
