McCain

McCain is looker stronger than I expected him to, after wins in New Hampshire and Florida. I told a friend the other day that if he was the Republican nominee I would abstain from voting for the President in the next election.

I said this because I believe McCain to be a RINO, Republican in Name Only. His domestic platform is completely liberal. When the Democrats in Congress wanted support from the Republicans they went to him for co-sponsorship. Look at McCain-Feingold and McCain-Kennedy, both disastrous legislation. Thankfully the border bill didn't pass.

I'm going to disagree with myself though. While I don't agree with his domestic platform, I do agree with him on his stance on the war and terrorism. So, if it was between him and any of the Democrats, I would vote for him, but with extreme hesitancy, knowing that he would be only slightly better than a Clinton or Obama White House. The Democratic candidates I disagree with completely.

2008 Elections

The election cycle is getting really crazy, like a circus. So far, I like Mitt Romney out of the Republican candidates, and couldn't see myself voting for McCain or any of the Democrat candidates. McCain seems like a RINO to me (Republican in Name Only), especially with his history of liberal legislation as Senator. I could see supporting any of the other Republican candidates though. We'll just have to see election time. Maybe by then a few candidates will have dropped out, easing my decision.

Here's an interesting snippet about Ann Romney: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,299035,00.html

Happy 2008!

Y2K seems like forever ago already. Man time flies. Happy New Year all! Ashley and I are recently back from Hawaii were we spent Christmas with her side of the family. The weather was gorgeous, and our trip was jam packed full of exciting events. I hope to share photos with you soon.
