Will Conservatives rally behind John McCain?

Question

How on Earth is Clinton an Obama more conservative, besides abortion and big business?

They're for universal health care.....very lib and socialistic view.

Higher taxes(To pay for the health care)....very lib view!

They're for retreat in the Iraq war.....Can you say "Move On.org"?

I'm a strong conservative, and John McCain was not my 1st choice. However, I agree with a lot of what he stands for, and absolutely nothing of what CLinton and Obama stand for.

President McCain!!!

Answer 1

oh I am sure they will. Good lord another ancient candidate, I thought Reagan was bad...

Answer 2

Other than McCain's views on abortion and big business, he's leaning dangerously close to the liberal.

Both Obama and Clinton are more conservative, other than abortion and big business.

That leaves a lot of conservative voters who could go either way. I think you'll see some more conservative repubs that disagree with the economy or the war, heading to the democratic side. Because, other than those issues, the candidates have the same stance.

Answer 3

Am a first time voter.Liked Huckabee from the beginning.

Didn't like McCain and was gonna sit this one out but if gets down to Obama vs McCain,I will go out and vote for McCain.

Answer 4

Not me anyway.  If McCain comes up I will write in.  I am still supporting Huckabee with my time making phone calls and what little money I can give out of my Social Security income.  I am among the American poor (and compared to the rest of the world I am very blessed and rich!) and I do not support those lying liberals who claim they care about the poor and downtrodden.  I do not trust McCain and while I thank him for his service to our country I do not think we owe him our support for president because he was a POW.  Throw your support behind Huckabee now and we could still end up with a brokered convention and a miracle win that would wow the press and give us even more momentum to overrun Obama's momentum.

Don't just vote, Vote and support!

Answer 5

sure they will.  they have no where else to go.

Answer 6

McCain is much more conservative on many issues than the Democrats. They are very liberal with our money when it comes time to put a bill through the Congress. They add a lot of FAT onto a important bill and then the voters wonder why they voted for them!

I am going to vote McCain. The Democrats really scare me!

Answer 7

Like you I didn't support McCain at first, but I think Conservatives will come to believe that a semi-moderate McCain is better than a liberal like Obama and Clinton. McCain isn't too liberal. He opposes abortion, g*y marriage, pulling out of Iraq, and amnesty for illegals.

KSprad- How can you say that Clinton and Obama are more Conservative than McCain? Clinton and Obama both support "civil unions" (a liberal cause), and the support lots of leniency on illegal immigrants (also a liberal opinion). McCain opposes both of them. Give me one example of how Hillary or Barack are more Conservative.

Answer 8

I hope no one rallys behind McCain, if republicans want a good candidate why not Ron Paul. Whats so bad about him i dont understand, he wants to restore liberties that are being tampered with.

Dont hear McCain voicing opinions i like on key issues that matter. Hucklebee is a better candidate than McCain.

I dont understand how anyone, who didnt like what Bush did in his 8 years, would vote for McCain. He looks like a continuation of Bushs policies, and hes so blunt about it.

I do like him for that though.

We shall see what happens as America sleeps and lets the candidate we need slip through this election.

Obamas gonna win..

Answer 9

i think that they will have to . you will likely see mccain play to them a bit at the republican national convention in order to get momentum going into the general election.

Answer 10

Can't wait for old man McCain to meltdown when he faces Obama on a nationally televised debate. So I'm rooting for Johnny too.
