Serious Question

Why don’t the conservatives embrace John McCain? I thought the very base of the conservative movement was fiscal conservatism. Well John McCain went off yesterday about the recent earmarks, like the $250 million David Vitter won, or the $114 Richard Shelby won, or even the $86 million Kit Bond won, but conservatives will rush to these guys before McCain. Perhaps the Republicans, and conservatives in particular, can now see where their identity crisis lays – when it comes time to stand up for their beliefs their asses seemed to be glued to the seat.
