I do not consider McCain to be a conservative. He seems to be the chosen candidate of the media and of the democrats that continue to call him pro-life, even as he supports federal funding of embryonic stem cell research. Anyone who is truely pro-life knows that John McCain is not pro-life and the media should quit portraying him as such.

As for his honesty he still maintains that McCain-Kennedy was not amnesty. Come on John, where is this honesty of your’s?

Romney and Huckabee are the only two real conservatives in this race. Huckabee does not have the national strength to win the republican nomination.

Romney understands business and he understands why companies hire and layoff workers. I am originally from Michigan and I now live in Georgia. Most of the jobs that left Michigan did not go overseas. They went south. The american auto companies have such high labor expenses , particularly due to benefits that they can not compete. Toyota and Honda produce most of their cars here in America, but they do so in the South. There are numerous foreign manufacturers who are establishing good old manufacturing jobs righthere in the United states. ThyssenKrupp is building a brand new steel plant in Alabama as we speak.

Romney is not wrong about jobs. He just understands that government taxes and regulations destroy jobs.

John McCain has been in Washington too long to understand how the real world works.

McCain is the “real deal”. I have so much respect and admiration for him. He not only talks the talk but walks the walk. McCain is the only candidate who is totally honest and straight forward. He doesn’t care who he makes mad or who he makes glad…he tells it like it is. He is a refreshing change in this world of chameleon, philandering, manipulative, deceitful and just plain dishonest politicians.

GO MCCAIN!!!

Please don’t label someone who voted AGAINST the Federal Marriage Amendment and has the same position as Ted Kennedy on immigration, a conservative. Let’s be honest people, Mccain is a moderate.

I admire your patience and loyalty, Ali. You’ve stuck to your guns whereas I’ve been undecided until this point. This is one area where we may have different priorities. I can however agree that McCain MAY be an enforcer of the free market, and he does have “straight talk.” But to me, “straight talk” is great at times, but shows pessimism at others.

I never heard anything about Romney promising to get people their old jobs back, but promising to work to keep the existing jobs. That’s something that I think Romney would certainly try to do. McCain simply said that he’ll get new jobs. Were the existing ones not good enough? Does McCain feel that their jobs aren’t secure enough to be kept and he won’t work hard to make them secure? I don’t know if that’s what he means, but some see it this way.

I was fortunate enough to listen to the conference call and I have to say as a conservative myself I didn’t agree with much of what McCain had to say nor do I interpret what Romney is saying in Michigan the same way. From what I heard I think Romney said he wanted to protect jobs in Michigan. That’s not the same as “bringing them back”. I understand McCain’s want to bring “new jobs” however the only way that happens is less mandates and government regulation in the private sector there. McCain as President can fight for that on a federal level and I hope he does should he get elected, but it’s mostly up to the state legislation. I don’t agree with McCain in his “Greener futures” in the auto industry comment. However, it was fun to be included.
