As an Australian, suffering under a newly elected non-conservative government of little ability in anything but whining, I have to caution American conservatives from electing a corrupt, statist idiot (Clinton) or an idealist windbag with no experience (Obama), just because the Conservative side puts up its least Conservative candidate.

Let’s face it, no matter how statist Mr McCain is, he will still be less statist than the Democrats. So voting for a Democrat over McCain is merely spiteful idiocy.
