Why I voted for McCain

Published by larryamon at 10:00 pm under Uncategorized Edit This

I voted absentee this week and I voted for McCain. I am a conservative and not a Republican. Most people know that John McCain is not a conservative. Only recently in the latter stages of this election has John McCain tried to appeal to conservatives because he or someone in his campaign realized he needs them to win.

 

While McCain has many things I disagree with as a conservative (global warming, campaign finance, illegal immigrants) Obama has many, many more things I strongly disagree with. I went back and forth deciding on for which candidate I would vote. I was not deciding between Obama and McCain but between McCain or not McCain. If I had not voted for McCain I would have either voted for a third party candidate (maybe Bob Barr) or I would have left the president spot blank.

 

The reason I voted for McCain is because while there are things I don’t like about him I have to say I think Barrack Obama represents not just things I disagree with (talking with our enemies without condition, higher taxes, bigger government, etc) but also things that I think are evil (abortion, the murder of infants surviving abortion, hate crimes legislation, gay marriage, redistribution of wealth) and that he is a complete phony saying whatever he can to get into power. So I voted not so much for McCain but I voted to stop Obama.
