That is all politics are. Getting the most people you can to vote for you without pissing off the other side. And there is no way that you can win as a Republican and be for abortion, against organized religion, say ID is wrong, even though he might not care or have the opposite views personally. Didn't Bush say something about fixing the budget in the previous election?
The biggest thing I like about McCain is what he would do with the budget and spending problem we have. If there isn't a Libertarian candidate that I like, he will be my second choice.
