A third party helps the Democrats every single time. That’s how we ended up with Pelosi — all the holier-than-thou Republicans sitting home saying that no one was good enough. Well, how did THAT work out??

Like it or not, and I do NOT like it, most of us only have the choice between a RINO and a pure, 100% Democrat. That is it. That’s the reality. What does someone in a John McCain state do when we know he has that Senate seat for as long as he wants it? There has yet to be a viable conservative oppose him in the primaries. So, do I vote for McCain or sit back and let a Democrat take yet another Senate seat?

I admit it’s an ugly mess and we should continue to fight and support the conservatives that are out there, demand the GOP support the conservatives that run, but staying home and not voting is *one* of the reasons we are in our current situation.

Flame away. I’m ready. LOL

I've got news for you: McCain is a Democrat in Republican clothing.

George W. Bush received 62 million votes in 2004. McCain received almost 60 million votes. Obama had 69 million.

Our voters didn't largely stay home. Even every vote that W got in 2004 wouldn't have been enough.
