Fifth Generation

Today John Edwards and Rudy Giuliani dropped out the race. John Edwards hasn’t endorsed anyone yet. Giuliani endorsed McCain. There is talk that Huckabee will not drop out so to take away votes from Romney and keep McCain in the lead. Then Huckabee will get a post in the McCain presidency. Of course, that is just speculation.

Before, I wasn’t sure who to vote for. None of the candidates were conservative enough. I thought that Bush’s policies resembled the old Democrat party. Today’s Democrat’s are really Socialists. There really isn’t a party out there that represents Conservatives at the moment. As I am a Libertarian Conservative, even fewer represent my views. Thompson was my favorite choice, but he dropped out. I like Romney, but I think he can be too liberal on cerain things. He grew up in a world of privilege and people like that tend to be a little liberal. (McCain didn’t exactly grow up in a log cabin either!) I do not like how McCain is running his campaign. It is because of this that I support Romney. I trust that he will be a great president even if I don’t agree with him 100%.  I am impressed with his resume so far.

Stating that I am a libertarian, you may think that I should support Ron Paul. I like a lot of what Ron Paul is saying, I just don’t think he would make a great president. I am excited however, that perhaps he might bring Libertarianism to the Republican party much like the Socialists took over the Democratic Party.
