Why the conservative commentators need to get off their pity pot and be practical

   Today is a sad time for me. I feel as if I am in mourning. I am saddened because today is the day I must take a stand against the conservative establishment and the conservative commentators I so adore. Rush, Sean, Ann, Mark, Laura, and yes, even Glenn have forced my hand on this issue. Their prognostications of doom and their hatred of John McCain are sinking both the conservative party and the influence of talk radio. They are decrying the supposed leftists and independents that are voting for McCain, as if these are the ones who are turning the tide. I think its time for them to realize that any leftists and independents who are voting are voting in the democratic race. Thats the exciting one, the one that the media focus is on. The people who are voting for John McCain are the ones who believe in his national security experience as well as his efforts to actually work with the left wing establishment. Instead of having a candidate who can be respected by most of our country, they want to elect to polarizing figure who don't have an ice cube's chance in hell of winning a national election.    Further more, they are so prideful and angry at McCain that they are willing to kill the conservative and republican parties. By encouraging 'suicide votes' they are indeed killing us all. They would be willing to lead any hope of a republican candidacy to its demise, any hope of turning the tide on international public opinion, just so that their enemy McCain will perish.    Let us be clear, they are not doing anything honorable. They are not throwing themselves down on the sword. They are handing Osama Bin Laden the keys to Fort Knox, a media station, and an Uzi. They are compromising themselves and our country because he is not the perfect candidate. Let's face it, there is no perfect candidate. But I strongly believe, along with the polls, that he is our best shot. We need to realize that Satan himself would be a better candidate than Hillary Clinton. But that might be a moot analogy since I not quite sure they aren't one and the same.    It's time for the conservative establishment to buck up and face the truth. Our party is in trouble and we need to grasp what ground we can by getting the most likely candidate, John McCain.
