Tomorrow is the day...
I made my case for McCain here, and here.
Like most conservatives I am put off by a few of his positions that are not in keeping with either liberty, limited government or common sense. These are, to be sure, nontrivial matters. However, I still think he is better on Foreign Policy than his most formidable rival (Romney) who held many of the same positions until recently. McCain is at least consistent and honest in his views as much as I disagree with them.
As to those views, Bill Quick pretty much lays out the conservative case against McCain here.
Aside from the rumors of perfidy for which I can find no evidence other than hearsay and innuendo they are genuine and legitimate points of disagreement. They also don't hold a candle to the differences we all would have with a Clinton or even Obama administration.
I can only suggest that Mr. Quick change his title picture to a dove, flowers, or a modified inverted Mercedes symbol because he obviously does not take the war seriously any more if he is going to actively suggest that we vote for Hillary or Obama instead of McCain.
The comment section there looks like a Democratic Underground thread. It is awfully dismaying.
I want to take this opportunity to thank RH Junior, (who has a store that sells stuff ) and who vehemently disagrees with me on this point for remaining civil.
Tomorrow is Super Tuesday.
This is therefore (hopefully) my last post on this divisive topic as by tomorrow evening this issue will likely be settled.
I have little to add but others who are not Z-list bloggers have some thoughts....
The Anchoress has updated her piece on this issue and reveals that she got ~1000 E-mails on this topic. I am led to understand most of them were rather venomous.
She also asks for Romney supporters to make their case.
Via Instapundit comes this piece from the American Digest that postulates that certain Republicans thirst for death.....which explains a lot.
Over at National Review, Victor Davis Hanson posts a thoughtful and uncharacteristically brief piece on this topic.
Neo has a well thought out piece here.
Ed Morrissey (a staunch Romney supporter) has an example of just how nuts some of the anti McCain people are getting.
I have nothing really to add...except that everybody needs to step back and breathe and reacquire some perspective.

I'm voting Romney. The Anchoress is just a silly bint who knows nothing, and her precious McCain is a sock puppet of every liberal with an agenda (remember how Pew manufactured McCain-Feingold). When he's reminded about his incompetence, he turns red and yells. What a jerk.
