re: #207 sillyquiet

There were two problems with McCain:
1.) He was not a conservative.
2.) His running mate was selected on the assumption that Conservative == Christian Right (not knocking her, just saying).
This assumption is incorrect. Being conservative does NOT mean pushing prayer in schools, and mandating that creationism be taught in science class. It means just the opposite, as a matter of fact. Until the Republican PTB realize this, they will continue to lose election after election.

I think she was chosen because she is a pro-life woman. I guess that may be one and the same?
