I'm a John McCain fan, but I guess it's for all the wrong reasons.  I care about his social issues and not his military experience.  I didn't realize military experience could make for an entire campaign and the only issue worth following.  This makes me feel almost unworthy of being a supporter.

This is what I think is worth supporting:

The NRA doesn't like him much compared to the love they give other republican candidates and I don't like the NRA.
He supports stem cell research which I care about very much.
Would create an option to divert some social security into private accounts.

I guess I don't see much of a reason to vote for someone who used to be in the military because they used to be in the military.

I remember watching an interview with McCain over the summer, his campaign was left for dead.  The interviewer was asking him if maybe it was because he was so old.  I thought that was a really stupid question to ask a man who's campaign was all but invisible but for obviously fixable reasons.

I guess my mind-set as a republican is all wrong.  Since I'm about to graduate from college and I want to have a job and with a recession mounting, that's all I really care or worry about.  Compared with McCain's war efforts and insights this could be considered selfish of me I guess.

Since the last poll, McCain has jumped 21 points.  I think he's destined to be the republican nominee and I think that would be a great race against either one of the democratic candidates currently fighting it out.  Even though I don't feel worthy of it, I'll continue to root for McCain as the rest of the competition dwindles down after super-duper Tuesday.
