I am a registered republican, although my leanings are probably more libertarian than conservative. I am not thrilled with any of the options, but will vote for McCain as the lesser of the two evils.
I am pro-choice within limits. I do not support late term abortion. I do not want, nor do I think we need, to be taxed any more than we already are.
As for Palin's abstinence only policy.... That works for me, and here's why. As a parent it is my right and responsibility to educate my children on moral or religious issues. Nowhere does her policy infringe on my ability to provide my daughters with additional information in accordance with my belief system. I happen to be very liberal in that respect, but someone else may not be and that is their right too. That being said, I have a daughter that became pregnant at 17. She had all the information and services of a large urban public school system, it didn't change the outcome. Another daughter has chosen abstinence, and I support that decision as well. Teens will be teens. You can only provide the best counsel and information, then they fly on their own.
I agree with ShaniFaye in that I want to government out of my bedroom, but I also want them out of the rest of my home, my wallet, my kids minds, and my body.
Good morning, Ladies
