Just as we did in 1996 with the nomination of Bob Dole.<BR/><BR/>Further, by accepting McCain, we are basically saying that we are willing to give up our platform and principals for the "sake of the win"...that is not ever going to get us anywhere and what do you think that is teaching your children?<BR/><BR/>Are you willing to accept a man who condones embryonic stem cell research? A candidate who does not believe that Roe v. Wade should be overturned? A candidate who, although claims he will strong in the war on terror, wants to close Gitmo and give the terrorists held their a "right" to a fair trial? A candidate that wants to allow our military men and women to be tried by an international court when accusations of war crimes occur? A candidate that has fallen hook line and sinker for the farse of global warming? Etc., etc.<BR/><BR/>You say you are concerned about your children and their future...well then I would be sure to get out and vote for a candidate who stands up for traditional values, not one who cowers to the demands of the liberals you so rightfully fear.<BR/><BR/>Vote for one who is committed to expanding Conservative values...not one who is concerned soley with "compromise". One who we can actually feel confident in, not one in which we have to constantly guess what his actions will be.<BR/><BR/>Vote for one who has integrity and will the example we can all be proud of, not one we have to "settle" for...cause again, what will that teach your children?neat62https://www.blogger.com/profile/00199877712267156515noreply@blogger.com
