The Cat's Meow - 01/28/08: Power
Liberalism is about acquiring power. Conservatism is about applying principles.
Of course, liberals don't see it that way, but consider what we're all about: to redistribute wealth and regulate the economy, you have to have a strong government and you have to have your people in charge. On the other hand, if you're a conservative, you want government confined to a narrow focus, so that the country flourishes no matter who has their hand on the helm. It's a completely different mindset.
Over the weekend, Senator John McCain embraced the liberal mindset in a radio ad.
The Wall Street Journal says Hillary Clinton beats Mitt Romney by 16 points.
The bottom line. Mitt Romney loses to Hillary Clinton.
Republicans lose.
We can’t afford Mitt Romney.
John McCain. He’s the one Republican who can beat Hillary Clinton.
Folks, a Republican who puts winning first is the worst possible type of politician: he has no philosophical reason to be honest, and the press has no qualms about bringing him down. It would be Richard Nixon all over again.
A lot can happen in ten months. We may never know if McCain is the only one who can beat Hillary Clinton. But I can tell you right now: it doesn't matter.
It does not profit to gain the White House if along the way you lose your soul.

Couldn't have said it better myself.
