I only used the term "liberal" to show that Republicans that hold to their platform.  I know that there is no left-right paradigm.  There is individualism and collectivism.

Does it really matter now who is a liberal or conservative? I strongly believe that the MOST important issue that faces our nation is the ECONOMIC crisis. The candidate should address FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY and putting an end to the war (why the war? Well, if you have any common sense left, the war is costing us a lot of money and MUST stop or we are doomed).
 
The Congress is still spending like there is no tomorrow. The Fed is out of control printing more money, thus, devaluing the dollar and therefore we ALL pay the INFLATION tax. People are losing their homes because of their OWN irresponsibility and also because of corporate GREED. (I did not get a INTEREST only loan and a home I could NOT afford)
 
McCain is the worst of all the candidates--he wants to continue the war for 100 years, has no clue about economics, wants to spend more money, etc. Obama and Clinton want to expand social services (healthcare, benefits, etc.) But they are the lesser of the two evils...

You have three "liberals" to choose from...well, we ALL know that. So, the question to ask yourself is: Who is going to stop the bleeding (deficit spending)andthe corruption in Washington? Right now, Obama seems to have the less ties with lobbyists, wants to stop the war in Iraq, and balance the budget. We really don't know where he stands in a lot of the issues...but he seems to be the lesser of the evils...He wants to "save" the people who are being affected right now...I know we can't afford it, but it is better than the Republican stance of giving to the rich and slashing programs for the poor in addition to screw the CONSUMER...
 
That needs to stick in your head for the next decade or two: REPUBLICAN PARTY = "CONSERVATIVE" = Destroy government, no regulations (we got in a crisis because of lack of oversight PARTLY), no funding or partially funding agencies so that they don't operate effectively, give tax breaks to LARGE corporations and rich people who do not need tax breaks, "INmoral values party" (it is ok to have an affair, Sen Vitter, and get a standing welcome back to Congress), Rep Foley, most corrupt politician ever Tom Delay, R-TX, etc, etc,. etc.
A LIBERAL is the least of my worries, the Dems are corrupt as well because they serve their CORPORATE master but they are definitely the lesser of the two evils.
 
Bottom line, it has nothing to do with "liberal" or "conservative", it has more to do with Special interest, own interest, self-serving politicians in both parties with the Republicans being the WORST ever thanks to the Newt Gingrich legacy and Bush/Cheney.

Vote Nader or any other third party!

I signed up for GOP updates, not McCain updates.  McCain is not a true Republican.  He sides with liberal Democrats.

	The McCain Update - March 28, 2008 Next week, John McCain will embark on a "Service to America" tour visiting numerous locations that have played a significant role in shaping who he is today. Throughout the stops, he will introduce himself to the nation through a series of speeches and visits that trace the life of a man indebted to his nation, humbled by the opportunity to serve his country, honored by his family's love and deeply moved by his fellow Americans' courage and sacrifice. The tour will highlight the events and figures that shaped his views of right and wrong, forgiveness and grace and the tradition of service and sacrifice ingrained in him from generations of McCains. The tour will include stops in Mississippi, Virginia, Maryland, Florida and his home state of Arizona. The "Service to America" tour will be about the future of America and the change John McCain will bring as president. Visit www.JohnMcCain.com throughout next week for the latest updates from the tour as John McCain visits with voters, listening to their concerns and offering his vision for the future. Ride the Bus Update: As you may have heard, we are offering another opportunity to join John McCain aboard the Straight Talk Express for a day on the campaign trail during his upcoming "Service to America" bus tour. You and a friend can join John McCain in Jacksonville, Florida for the day, riding the bus and attending events including his speech at Cecil Field. Remember, if you can give $50 or more, not only will you be entered to win a ride on the Straight Talk Express, but you'll receive a commemorative Straight Talk Express tick et, so be sure to make a contribution before midnight on March 31st. First Post-Primary Election Ad Today, the campaign released its first television ad since John McCain became the Republican Party's presumptive nominee. The ad, entitled "624787," poses important questions to the American people about what values they want in their next president, and highlights John McCain's experience, character and optimistic vision for our future. "624787" will run statewide in the important battleground state of New Mexico. To watch the ad, click here. Be sure to tell your friends and family to visit www.JohnMcCain.com/Service to watch the ad as well. Major Foreign Policy Address John McCain spoke to the World Affairs Council in Los Angeles, California this week about his foreign policy positions and how he would lead as president. He articulated his vision which centers on building an enduring peace based on freedom that would secure our interests and those of our allies, and would make the world safer and freer. He made clear that he is an idealist with a deep understanding of the world's realities. He also laid out his vision of collaborative relations with our allies in Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa that will strengthen our alliances and our security. Such a course would allow us to better address diverse global challenges such as climate change, treatment of terrorist detainees, while enhancing the use of "smart power" to counter radical Islamic extremism. Click here to read the entire speech. The Housing Crisis John McCain addressed the Orange County Hispanic Small Business Roundtable with some "straight talk" about the housing crisis and the economic situation facing our country. He discussed his proposed principles for addressing the housing crisis in the short-term as well as in the long-term to assure it never happens again. He gave a clear explanation of the challenges facing America's economy and a lucid explanation of how we got here. He will not play election year politics with the housing crisis; he will evaluate everything in terms of whether it might be harmful or helpful to our effort to deal with the crisis we face now and its implications for long term growth.  He made clear that it is not the duty of government to bail out and reward those who act irresponsibly. He called for several specific steps to strengthen the foundations of the millions of businesses small and large that provide jobs for American workers. These steps would also strengthen the U.S. dollar and help to control the rising cost of living that hurts our families. To read his full speech, click here.
