The American Spectator

I am no fan of John McCain and am not the biggest Romney supporter either, though I feel he would be the best choice for conservatives. This season has been a strange mix of personalities and circumstances for sure. But if one wants to “blame” someone, try the veterans who are overwhelmingly supporting McCain or the Evangelicals who are keeping Huckabee in the race. That kind of finger-pointing and dissension of course, would constitute virtual suicide for the conservative movement; the left knows it, savors it and will glee in it should it come to fruition.

And please refrain from the Bush-bashing. He has signed more pro-life legislation, appointed better judges and used our military overseas for the benefit of our national defense as well or more effectively than even Reagan did. Were he on the ballot this year against Hillary Clinton, would the choice be difficult at all?
