All things said are true, however he has proven his leadership abilities during 9/11 and is big time anti-terroist. As a life long Republican and one who considers himself as a conservative if the Republican convention was today in my state I would vote for him. Our country in these times needs proven leadership at the helm. Nobody is going to be satisfactory in all respects. At any rate he is a hell of alot better than what the democraps have to offer.
