Conservatives are weenies without principles

Oh, they'll talk a good game. "I'm never voting for X. He's not a real conservative."

"How can I support him? He was married three times, twice to barnyard animals...my principles won't allow me to vote for him."

Here's the dirty truth. Conservatives have no principles. Lack of principle is one of the hallmarks of a true conservative. So support will coalesce eventually around John McCain, sure as stink will coalesce around an exercising ape.

Jay Severin is an excellent example. Yesterday he was all "I'm never voting for McCain. My principles won't allow me...blah, blah, blah...."

Today a caller asked him if he'd vote for McCain if Romney could be persuaded to take the Veep slot. "Well, he won't take it....but I guess if he did, I'd have to vote for him. I'm a Romney Republican..."

Yes. You're a Romney Republican - a conservative without principles.
