You know, it’s interesting….with all the knowledge of Obama’s elitism and McCain’s continued pushing of amnesty and no drilling in ANWR or the OCS I really believe that this election will show the absolute lowest turnout in political history! Do you think that the GOP can possibly get any lower then they currently are? The GOP platform looks so much like the DNC platform that nobody can tell the difference in the two parties anymore. Is it worth the trouble to begin a party with an actual spine? The DNC doesn’t have one and neither does the GOP. How about actually showing a real difference to America in order to convince them to vote for McCain? I’ve voted a straight GOP ticket since I was able to vote before the end of the Vietnam war. I don’t think I can do that any more if the GOP won’t grow some testes and prove that they really care about this country. Are you willing to do that or are you just whacking off?

i suggest you work really hard to elect a truly conservative congress. that helps wc and jd.

Been doing that for ALL CONSERVATIVES for years and I’ll continue to do so, cheapseat. It doesn’t matter what office they’re running for or their party affiliation, If they’re conservative they’ll get my support and vote. That’s right folks I’ve actually supported ~gasp~ democrats, conservative democrats. (local government)

For the past twenty or so years I’ve supported the LOTE’S (republicans on the national level) thinking I was doing the right thing and you know what I’ve gotten in return?

Gigantic government that hasn’t seen a problem that can’t be solved with a borrowed nickel.

Budget deficits as far as the eye can see

Open borders

Campaign finance reform

Amnesty for illegal aliens

I don’t support any of that and I’ll never again support a candidate that does. If some conservatives stay home(don’t recommend that) or vote 3rd party on election day and McCain gets his arse handed to him by obambi it’s his own fault.

Somehow the dots didn’t quite connect there, did they?

Just try to remember that we’re all conservatives and nobody wants to see Obama in office.

Except for the nutcases who think that 8 years of Obama will be some kind of cure for the GOP.

Just the other day it looked like the MDS was in remission.

It’s probably a little strong to call it MDS. It’s frustration at having 8 years of Clinton, then 8 more of Bush that didn’t live up to any of the promises and looking ahead to 4 more years of disappointment.

Just try to remember that we’re all conservatives and nobody wants to see Obama in office.

Lazy? Screw you. I propose the problem is people (check that, smart*sses) like you who keep the 2 party sytem stranglehold going. I am willing to work to get a 3rd party, with conservative values up and running, which is MUCH more difficult

“Difficult” is a understatement. You’ve got about 60 days to accomplish that. Mission Impossible, I’d say.

Go ahead with your delusions. Like the left, you live in a dream world. Many of us here live in reality, and we understand the parameters we must work with.

You have fallen into the “sunk cost” trap. At some point, it is best to cut your losses and move on. When do we say they will never get he message? in 4 more years? 10?

That’s exactly what the capitulation party said about Iraq. That’s also what a lot of patriots said following every British victory of the Revolution, of which there were plenty. We all know how that ended.

Perservere.

The gop has abandoned most of the principles it once stood upon. The amnesty crap from mccain was the last straw for me. They spend like liberals, support affirmative action and diversity nonsense, grew the size of government 4 fold, supported amensty, etc.

All very good points that are completely ignored by most conservatives republicans.

I propose the problem is people (check that, smart*sses) like you who keep the 2 party sytem stranglehold going. I am willing to work to get a 3rd party, with conservative values up and running, which is MUCH more difficult, while party freaking hacks like you just want to vote for the guy wiht an “r” beside his name. Then withhold donations to make your opinion heard. So come agian on the lazy, “my friend”. Look in the mirror to see lazy party hack.

Well said, WC.
