A few senators like John McCain stood in our way. John McCain voted against the president\u2019s tax cuts, worked with Ted Kennedy to pass what many people call amnesty for illegal aliens and he even opposes the marriage amendment that says that marriage is between man and woman.<br \/>\n&#8220;As a conservative I don\u2019t agree with McCain on many issues and I don\u2019t think he has the temperament and leadership ability to move the country in the right direction. Please join me and other conservative in voting for Mitt Romney this Tuesday.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n8<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After endorsing him last week, former Pennsylvania Sen.
