Those who say John McCain has no conservative credentials are not looking at a lifetime of conservative credentials. What many who say McCain is not a conservative mean is that he does not hold the same position they do on certain specific issues. But if you look at his lifetime voting record, John McCain has an 82.3 rating by the American Conservative Union. So, 82.3% of the time over a 25-year record, John McCain has voted what is considered the conservative position, yet he is considered by some to not be a conservative. Folks, that is just not factual or rational.

Even less rational or factual is the incredible position some are taking that Hillary Clinton is just as conservative as John McCain! Hillary Clinton's lifetime conservative rating is -- 9.0! So, in this parallel universe some conservatives are living in, 82.3 is not as good as 9.0!? (Click "Read More" Below)

Whatever the reasons some have - who seem to think they are anointed to determine who is conservative and who is not - for not supporting John McCain, let it be clear: Those reasons are not supported by facts when looking at the whole sweep of McCain's career, nor are they rational when looking at the alternative of allowing either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama to occupy the White House.
