I am not happy with the probable republican nominee, but will vote for him anyway. It is pragmatic. there are three major decisions awaiting our next president: the war, health care and nomination of Supreme Court justices. These decisions, once made, will affect the future in most serious ways, and if the liberal democrats make them, no perfect future conservative president will be able to undo them. If we leave Iraq in an untimely manner, and send the message to AlQuaida and other terrorists that we are, again, weak, we will have those consequences to pay at a future date. No major entitlement program seems ever to go away – enough said about health care. Finally, I believe the nominees to the Supreme Court to be crucial for our future. I cannot for the life of me understand the viewpoint of some of the pundits who advocate not voting at all.
