I Am In Complete Agreement

H/T Vox Day who adds:

The Republican Party of John McCain has no raison d'etre. There is no need for it whatsoever, as evidenced by the fact that even a wildly unelectable Democratic candidate like Barack Obama can run a completely incompetent campaign and still be in a position to beat it.

I'm not convinced that McCain is quite as doomed as many despairing Republican pundits assume, since thanks to Obama's incompetence, the polls remain well within the range of the pro-Democrat fudge factor, but I am convinced that there is nothing positive to be gained from a McCain victory. As I wrote a few days ago, I prefer open and avowed socialism to the sort that comes in a faux conservative guise.

And also says:

UPDATE- It looks as if McCain just sealed the deal for President Obama. One would think that after nearly getting knocked out of the nomination battle due to his determination to cling to the unpopular immigration amnesty, he would not have been so foolish as to support the incredibly unpopular Wall Street bail-out. Apparently, since that much-hated plan looks like it is failing, McCain decided to prevent every economic conservative from voting for him by upping the socialist ante yet again.

"You know that home values of retirees continues to decline and people are no longer able to afford their mortgage payments. As president of the United States, Alan, I would order the secretary of the treasury to immediately buy up the bad home loan mortgages in America and renegotiate at the new value of those homes -- at the diminished value of those homes and let people be able to make those -- be able to make those payments and stay in their homes.

Is it expensive? Yes. But we all know, my friends, until we stabilize home values in America, we're never going to start turning around and creating jobs and fixing our economy. And we've got to give some trust and confidence back to America."

If you call yourself a conservative and you vote for McCain, you should be aware of two things. First, you are not a conservative. Second, you are an idiot. As I wrote on Monday, only a vote for McCain is a wasted vote because it's the only vote that will not provide you what you think you're going to get. The left-liberal votes for Obama and knows he'll get socialism and multi-culturalism in one way or another. (The pacifist, on the other hand, will be disappointed.) The third-party voter votes third party and knows he'll get nothing. The non-voter doesn't vote and doesn't get what he isn't expecting.

The Republican voter, on the other hand, usually votes for conservatism, constitutional judges and small government, but only gets liberalism, activist judges and big government. That's why it is the Republican vote that is truly the wasted one.

Conservatives are to the present GOP as blacks are to the Democrats. Enough with living on the plantation!
