The mere election of McCain is no guarantee that we’ll get anything…anything we wish or need. The war is his strong suit, but I doubt he’ll stay with it. He’s not the kind of man who’ll tolerate continued hatred and vilification from the Haters on the Left as GWB has had to accept year after year. I think he’ll redefine “victory” and make an accommodation with the left…just as he always has. The fact that he was a warrior once doesn’t mean he’ll be one when there are “other values” to be defended etc. As for SCOTUS nominations…he’ll nominate like BushI…for the same reasons…to get along, one goes along…and we’ll get SouterII,III In other words, we’re going to get shafted by the Dems if we elect McCain or if we don’t. So the prior negative comments are rendered more cogent by that realization. I don’t see a significant difference between McC and the others, if one realizes that we must discount 2/3 of his pandering to us as just that.
