I won't vote for the Democratic candidate because that candidate will have a negative business outlook. Hence, that would be like voting to blow a hole in my head and pocket.

Voting for Hillary would be akin to voting for socialism for the East Coast. Thank you no.

Perhaps worse, it would be socialism FROM the East Coast.

not particularly original, liberals pull that crap all the time.

A much more accurate statement, IMO.

But back to McCain, if he's the one who gets the Republican nod, then my vote will go to him.

You don't think he's too old?
Because he'll be so old going in, and because of his history of cancer, I'd want to see his VP selection.

I don't think he's too old. The greatest President in my life time was a geezer - Reagan. Perhaps what we need in the White House is someone who is older and not going to be blown about wherever the political winds take him. (I'd say her but the first woman President will be a conservative, IMO).

The past bouts with cancer are more important than age, so you're right about the choice for VP.

My comment was more along the lines that I won't ever vote for a Democrat for President. I just don't see any Dem that I think would be good for the country, so if McCaine is the Reps choice, he wins simply by being from the GOP.
