The Moss Is Beginning To Chink On The Tiger's Spots

Or something. Anyway, the point is, chinks are beginning to appear in the Obama armor, and the GreatMoose is changing his mind. After my previous post on the topic, I had some time to think about it, and am rethinking my openess to consider Obama as a candidate. And it looks like McCain is my guy after all.

Honestly, it comes down to one thing: Can I wake up in January with a liberal as Commander-in-chief?

No.

And since Huckabee is out (and Thompson, and Paul, and...), McCain is the choice, even though he's not as conservative as I'd like. I'll get over it.

UPDATE:

McCain is officially the Republican nominee. Cool beans.

UPDATE II:

McCain is giving his victory speech, and I gotta be honest, I can't disagree with anything he's saying. IF he's being honest, I can support him 100%. Lower taxes, less regulation. Admits we live in a global economy and embraces it. No mandated/national healthcare. Win.

UPDATE III:

Aw crap, the Hildebeast won Ohio. I think I threw up in my mouth a little.

Scary how Obama has a hypnotic hold on people, isn't it? For a while there I was thinking we were going to have to make some wooden stakes and silver bullets and come after you (and the others who are held in his grip). Glad you came around on your own.

lol, yeah I know. The funny thing is, it wasn't even his "charisma" that I was drawn to. It was his immigration plan, and the fact that McCain has stabbed conservatives in the back more than once. I think I was more angry at the Republicans for not giving us a very good choice than actually excited about Obama. And then I remembered that there's only a few things I care about in the President: 2nd Amendment, free market, and national defense. That's about it. It'll be interesting to see what happens in November.
