How is thinking that McCain will take away freedoms from gays and non-religious folks less paranoid? I see no evidence that he is anti-gay or very steeped in religion, or further that his faith would influence his performance in the office.
He is pro-life, so insomuch as Supreme Court selections are concerned, then yes, you might have disagreement. This is equally true for pro-lifers vis-a-vis Obama and his Supreme Court nominations.
It comes down to defense, law enforcement, low taxes, and otherwise a non-interference with citizens in their pursuit of happiness - right, left, gay, straight, whatever -- preserving the free country we have, while protecting us from those who really are a threat.
