You were asking how conservatives could stand McCain the socialist, and I answered (they already knew he was). Of course, he still less of a socialist than Obama, so he'd still be the fiscal conservatives choice of the two most likely (at least based on issue stances only and not taking into account relevant personal information like personality, etc).
Like I said, you can't have it both ways.
You can't call out Obama for being a socialist when you're candidate also shares some socialist ideas.
It's extremely childish to say, "well, my candidate is a little socialist, your's is a big socialist."
How insane is that?

You really believe that? What is childish about complaining about someone being heavily socialist (as the claim goes) and favoring the candidate that is significant less socialist. That's extremely consistent.
Refusing to acknowledge McCain has any socialist tendencies is childish, certainly, but your argument is just completely absurd and seems to be a very immature black/white view of things.

It is extremely insane to complain about someone's socialist leanings, no matter how big or small, when your candidate also has socialist leanings, no matter how big or small.
It's absurd that you don't understand that.

That's just utter BS. But have fun with that view.
