If the current Republicans actually practiced more of what they have preached, I'd vote for them. I've voted absentee and it was split three ways. Perhaps I'm just less dogmatic in my "old" age.

Lesser of two evils is hardly a winning strategy folks.

If this group of "conservatives" bore some kinship to the class of '94 I'd be interested, but it doesn't.

Like relatives who've overstayed, this Republican congress has started to smell for my tastes.

And yes, I'm now a registered Libertarian.

Of course it is. Never in my life has there been a party that reperesented exactly what I want. I imagine that's the same for 90% of people. Government itself is a necessary evil, so at election time it's ALWAYS the lesser of two evils.

Worth reposting. Ditto for me.

I've always been fairly libertarian in my outlook (more just a strict adherance to the Constitution really), but have figured the 'pubs were better for us than the 'rats. I'm not sure at all that this is the case any more. I was always a fan of split government. Perhaps we'd be safer with that, than what we have now.
