And the MSM wonders why we don't support this guy. BTW, this is what Santorum has been saying.
McCain seems distinctly uninterested when asked questions concerning abortion and gay rights. While campaigning in South Carolina, he told reporters riding with him on his bus that he was comfortable pledging to appoint judges who would strictly interpret the Constitution in part because it would reassure conservatives who might otherwise distrust him.“It’s not social issues I care about,” he explained.

I somewhat understand is point of view. It's not gays that are a threat to us (for the most part.) And abortion is not really going to be a presidential decision (except for the appointment of judges, and he has come out for strict constitutionalists, dislike for Alito aside.)
He's assuming we'll come along for the ride, and for the most part he's right. Does anyone doubt that the more "progressive" candidacies of Obama and Clinton will have a more adverse impact on our "core values" than McCain?
That leaves immigration, where it's a push, campaign finance reform, which is already decided unfortunately, and the war. He's far and away the strongest home security candidate. So I would hold my Christian nose and vote for him.
It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant of reality the supposedly educated elite and political leadership really are. If McCain does stick to selecting honest and decent judges, then the tide of immorality spreading through this country like a carcinogen in the form of abortion and same-gender sexual behaviors, AND liberal legislation ruling everything everyone does will not overtake us. Not until an even younger group of indoctrinated children into Liberalism and Progressive thought. McCain, doesn't care about "social issues" becuase he'll be dead and buried before the legions of New Sodom and Gomorrah, San Francisco and Boston, Liberals and Progressives, lead our country back into time for a recreation of the days of Molech and Baal worship.
I don't vote for Democrats (because I value the New Testament and freedom more than stealing money from rich people and taxing home owners), but I will have a difficult time justifying a vote for McCain, or Romney, if that unthinkable thing were to happen.
It's not so much about religion, it's about not leading children into harm's way. By McCain's apathy to the evils of this world, real people will really suffer. I don't want to be part of that.
