He was my choice in y2k. I called his office and expressed sincere regrets when he dropped out.
McCain lost my vote when he agreed to give the commencement at Liberty U.
Every day he sells out another ideal to the Bedrock wing of the GOP, he gives one more bullet to the eventual democratic candidate. They'll need alot, but he seems to be willing to make more.
I've always known that McCain has a very conservative voting record, but I've also known that he likely could do a good job as president. We wouldn't have the incompetence of Bush or the silly scandals of Clinton. But anybody who is willing to give quarter to the religious right at a time when a real abortion ban is making its way through the system does not get my vote.
