Vote idealistic purity in the primaries. When you get to the election, you have the choice of the lesser of two evils.

It's that time again, folks. This is our time to send all the liberals searching for their Prozac. It's time we extract our pound of retribution from each of their socialist hides. And the best way to do that is to vote straight Republican.
Unfortunately, we rejected some of the most Constitutionally oriented candidates in the primary process. No matter, though. We can still work with those we have running.
The Republicans are, after all, an electable bunch. Sure, I can nit-pick and find problems with most of them. Nevertheless, collectively, the Republicans are fielding a pretty good group -- for the moment. I mean, let's face it, when we look at the big picture, we all want nearly the same thing: the liberals gone. Well, the only other ones electable are the Republicans. So, that's what needs to be done next month.
After all, we WANT to see wholesale retirement of liberals from Congress. And the oldest, most dangerous of these socialist Cretans will drop out when they see they are never again to be in power. We WANT to watch all those socialist talking heads crying into their microphones when they have to announce a clean sweep of Republicans across the country. We WANT to see a major change in the Washington press corps, which will be necessary because few powerful Republicans will be hobnobbing with the very scribblers who will be trying to take them down. And we most definitely WANT a unified Republican Party running everything in the federal government for at least the next two years so they can better clean house of the entrenched socialist scumbags running that huge, over-reaching leviathan called a regulatory bureaucracy.
Mostly though, we WANT one stop shopping to air our many diverse complaints of local federal bureaucratic abuses. We WANT to know who is in charge because we also WANT to know who is to blame!
And blame we shall. A unified front in government will soon realize that there is a very strong unified front developing out here in the real world and we shall be demanding significant changes -- often with a loud unified voice.
Ah yes, there can be great safety in having a unified party in government because then we all will know exactly who to confront for change in the next primary. No more blaming the Democrats for obstructionism.
Sure, to pump up the Republican numbers in Congress we will have to elect a few of those "Republican In Name Only" (RINO) stooges. But, if we start early next year, we can defeat them in the next primary election and elect real Republicans who will support our liberty. The same applies to those overly authoritarian Republicans who are always so willing to "plug loopholes" in the law and give police nearly unlimited power. They can all be beaten and replaced.
First, though, we must send as many Republicans to Washington as we can. Second, we must instruct them that we want our freedom back and we want all socialists driven out of the federal bureaucracy -- no exceptions.
We can do that. And, if the elected ones want to stay in office, they will obey our wishes. Else, they fall by the wayside in the next primary election. But before we can instruct them, we must vote them into office.
Our job, then, is to aggravate liberals in all sectors of society. It is time the media stop lying to us with their biased reporting. It is time all those far-left non-governmental organizations get de-funded, or at least stop receiving all those fat government grants used to promote their many unconstitutional programs. It is time the federal government gets out of education, the unions get out of government and the whole of the federal government gets paired down to less than six departments and ten agencies.
Our job is to instruct those we send to Washington, then insure they do our bidding. Their job is to lead the federal government back towards a Constitutional form of government. And, any member of government thinking we have a "living Constitution" (arbitrary meaning) should also have an arbitrary tenure that is immediately terminated. That includes judges, too.
So I say, vote straight Republican. They will be much easier than Democrats to control over these next two years and we may be able to institute a bit of Constitutional esprit de corps in enough of them to influence the others. Otherwise, we are sure to get nothing else than more socialism.
We all want nearly the same thing: the liberals gone. The only other ones electable are the Republicans.
The Washington press corps must change. Few powerful Republicans will be hobnobbing with scribblers who are their enemies.
Gone must be that huge, over-reaching leviathan called a regulatory bureaucracy.
We want to know who to blame.
"Republican In Name Only" (RINO) stooges can be ousted later.
Before we can instruct them, we must vote them into office.
Time to stop media lying to us with their biased reporting.
Time to de-fund all those far-left, unconstitutional, non-governmental organizations.
Time to get federal government out of education.
Time to get the unions get out of government.
Time to cut federal government down to less than six departments and ten agencies.
Our public servants must lead the federal government back towards a Constitutional form of government.
Anyone suggesting a "living Constitution" (arbitrary meaning) should be ousted, including judges.
Voting straight Republican can do this.

It's a start - if for no other reason - to make sure the situation doesn't get any worse than it already is -
The people's Apathy has aided in getting us to this point - that problem must also be corrected -
We shouldn't stop after the election - People should work to get the media and others(Reps) back to where they answer to the people - and not to special interest groups -
just my thoughts -
Excuse me for living.
That is what really upsets the liberals. "Our very existance".
So the best thing to do to piss them off is to keep on living, showing up to vote and placing bumper stickers on your cars.
Sorry Doug.
The only opportunity that citizens have to peacefully exert their will over government is by holding their feet to the fire at the ballot box. If you're unwilling to do that, then they'll pee all over you during the next 2 years, no matter what Republicrat label they profess to.
I sometimes tell liberals: "As far as I'm concerned, Ronald Reagan sits at the right hand of God." They practically have seizures from it. Another line, regardibg the srcond Amendment, is: "I'm pro choice on gun ownership. You don't have to have one, if you don't want to!". watch the sputtering result.
BTTT
Did it last Monday. Party trumps the person. If nothing else election 2000 told us that. Thank goodness there was a Repub legislature and secretary of state in FL--it didn't stop the libs on the court but it sure helped having those people in place.
The state and local Dems have blood on their hands. They could step up and tell the wackos that are running the DNC they are out of control. They could refuse to take money from the terrorists that run the DNC, but they don't refuse the money.
They have been testing their limits like spoiled children and they need to be spanked by being voted out en-mass.
ZOT!
I WILL AND ALMOST ALWAYS VOTE A STRAIGHT TICKET.
THIS HAS THE ADDED BENEFIT OF PISSIN OF BILL O'
SINCE HE HATES IDEALOGS. BUT TO ME THE REVOLUTION IS NIGH AT HAND AND THE DEATH OF LIBERALISM CAN NOT COME SOON ENOUGH.
