You still believe that after watching the powers in D.C. nullify the will of the people hundreds of times over? We band together, get strong conservatives elected, people we trust in, only to have them flip to RINO status in short order. The very few who don’t are neutered by RINO leadership. So, yes, voting just gives the masses something to get excited about every couple of years, believing they’re making a difference.

You still believe that after watching the powers in D.C. nullify the will of the people . . .

You keep answering the wrong question, perhaps because it's an easier question. The answer is "no." I thought that was clear—I don't believe just voting for the "R" is going to bring on the conservative renaissance.

I grew up in the 1960s, when the Communists had very little power, and made the same complaints we're making now—and the same complaint George Wallace was making then: Two parties, not a dime's worth of difference. What I keep reminding you is that we need to use the occasion of elections to get the word out, organize, and re-shape institutions for our own purposes.
