Filibuster Cartoons

The sheer, vicious, hatred shown towards John McCain (who is now the GOP nominee apparent, following Romney’s post Super Tuesday drop-out) by some elements of the American right really does shock me. And honestly, I feel like I am missing something.
McCain is not, as Ann Coulter says in her latest column, “a liberal” by objective standard, and certainly not a liberal when measured against “the litmus test issues of our time.” He is pro-life, extremely pro-gun, anti-gay marriage, and extremely pro-war. He is only “liberal” on a handful of minor issues that I have a hard time believing actually matter to anyone on the political right, such as campaign finance reform.
And yet the new faddish thing to do if you’re a conservative is to go around saying that you will never in a million years vote for the man, or even vote for Hillary or Obama instead.
Huh?
What’s the true reason for all the McCain hate? Post on my forum and let’s talk.
