Romney dropped out of the race this week and during his announcement at
CPAC he gave one of the best conservative speeches in at least the last
15 years. It was amazing. While I was watching this I was thinking,
where was this speech before Super Tuesday? Why did they leave it until
the end? That was the biggest error of the Romney campaign. Instead of
talking about Washington being broken, perhaps he should have given
variations on this speech at his rallies, that would have brought more
votes and we may actually see Romney ahead.
McCain's speech
was not bad either. It was predicted that he was going to try to reach
out to conservatives, many of whom hate McCain’s stances on so many
issues. Many just hate McCain because they feel he is too liberal.
After some thought and reflection after Tuesday night I have come up
with a few issues that might interest you regarding McCain. Think of
this. Hillary and Obama are 100 times more left wing than McCain could
ever be. These issues range in topic, from social to economic, let’s
look at them:
Do you support the judges who are pro-abortion and even pro-late term abortion? If you do, then do not vote for McCain.
Do you support restrictions on hand guns? (Gun Control) If you do, then do not vote for McCain.
Do you want your taxes increased every year regardless of your income level? If you do, then do not vote for McCain.
Do
you want socialist health care in our country destroying our hospitals
and ruining the entire medical field as we know it? If you do, then do
not vote for McCain.
Do you want us to leave Iraq without
finishing off the terrorists and give them victory so that they can
march all the way to our soil and kill us all? If you do then you are
crazy and please move away, but do not vote for McCain before you do.
Do
you want uncontrolled spending in Washington? Do you want bills that
are ear-marked so badly that economy may not be able to recover for
decades? If you do then do not vote for McCain.
These are just a
few issues that concern conservatives. On each one of these McCain has
been quite conservative. I realize he didn’t vote for Bush’s tax cut
plan, but he certainly supports cutting taxes, maybe not in the way we
wanted at the time. He will not appoint liberal judges to the bench,
that’s guaranteed. He will not socialize our health care system. And I
think you know he will fight all terrorists and protect us much better
than any Democrat would. McCain also wants to rid congress of their
over spending aka earmarks. He is a champion for this issue.
It
seems to me that working with McCain on these will be easy. We can also
work with him on immigration and the first amendment. He is can change
his view on immigration to come up with a sound –no amnesty- bill that
will work for everyone. We can work with him by getting the tax cuts
permanent and find ways to keep jobs in this country. Closing the
border is the only way, and I’m sure if he is elected he will get an
earful from us on these issues. Yes we have given him a lot to think
about over the past month. We have attacked him on several issues. I
still believe we need to continue to give this message. McCain does not
have blinders on and earplugs in when it comes to our opinions. He can
hear and he can read. Hillary and Obama, I’m not so certain.
So is McCain all that bad? Certainly not. Are the 2 Democrats running bad? Guaranteed.
So
I ask you to re-read those questions above one more time and think to
yourself, who would be better as our President, our candidate John
McCain or Hillary/Obama? I think the answer is quite clear.
