MANASSAS, Va., May 8 /Christian
Newswire/ -- Will John McCain receive the enthusiastic support from
conservatives that he needs to win in November? Or will conservatives give him
only grudging support... or vote for someone else?
A new website by Richard A. Viguerie,
www.UltimateJohnMcCain.com, will
offer conservatives a forum to express their opinions on McCain, to discuss and
debate his candidacy, and to decide whether (and to what degree) he deserves
conservative support.
"The most important factor that will determine the outcome of the 2008
presidential election is the level of support that conservatives give the
Republican candidate," said Viguerie.
"Conservatives need to know: Is John McCain, as he claims, a 'foot soldier in
the Reagan Revolution’ who will carry on the tradition of Reagan-type
conservatism? Or is he, as some fear, a supporter of Big Government, an
anti-conservative, a RINO (Republican In Name Only)? From the point of view of
conservatives, is he a friend or foe, a political hero or villain?"
Said Viguerie: "UltimateJohnMcCain.com will give conservatives an opportunity to
speak out. And it will give all conservatives the information they need to make
an informed choice in November."
Using polls, petitions, comments from visitors, and other feedback, the website
will track conservatives' level of support for McCain. This information will be
useful to a wide range of observers: McCain supporters, McCain opponents, people
trying to make up their minds, and journalists and others trying to figure out
what's going to happen in November.
Viguerie added: "This website is neither pro-McCain nor anti-McCain. It will
take conservatives' temperature regarding John McCain, present both sides, and
allow grassroots conservatives the chance to make their opinions known."
UltimateJohnMcCain.com will be updated throughout each day with links to the
latest news and commentaries regarding Senator McCain from around the nation and
a blog written by Viguerie and other commentators.
NOTE TO EDITORS: Richard A. Viguerie pioneered political direct mail and has
been called "one of the creators of the modern conservative movement" (The
Nation magazine) and one of the "conservatives of the century" (The Washington
Times). His latest book is Conservatives Betrayed: How George W. Bush and Other
Big-Government Republicans Hijacked the Conservative Cause (Bonus Books).
