The proudly socialist Democrats are full of passionate intensity, while the Republican leadership is full of pathetic excuses.

I've always liked Tom Tancredo & I wish him well.

The next few years will be very crazy I think.

California is worse than an open primary; it's a "top two" primary. Two Democrats will always advance to the general election.

I forgot about that.
I remember in the last election I actually voted for someone I never dreamed I'd cast a vote for - Solid Commie Mike Honda. The deal was that his opponent's commercials (also, as you pointed out, a Democrat) convinced me that Mike Honda was an incompetent boob who had done virtually nothing in his tenure in office ... Hmmm, vote for a competent leftist, or vote for an incompetent leftist who does nothing (other than occasionally agitate me with his smug pronouncements)? Easy call...
But you are correct, voting in California (particularly in the Northern California Bay Area) is thin gruel for finding palatable candidates.

America desperately needs an opposition party to battle the commie ‘RATS. The GOP just isn’t up to doing the job. Americans need “boots on the ground” in the House and Senate to do battle against the communists. Americans need people in Congress who will “have our backs” instead of our backsides.

Bush is running out of money and a number of his “people” have bolted to Rubio. So I expect Rubio will be anointed as next year's loser candidate. I just hope voters have wised up enough, given the last 2 presidential campaigns, plus the betrayals in both houses of congress, to reject the anointed candidate and vote for a true conservative in the primaries.

Didn’t Tancredo run in the Constitution Party a few years ago ? So maybe he is an Independent now, or this is an old article ??

Tom can stick a sock in it. I stop listening to him when he broke his pledge not to run for reelection way back when.

Sort of like the guys that wait for that “perfect woman” to marry. Sorry guys. There is no perfect woman just as there is no perfect political party. You take the bad with the good. ON a scale of 10 to 1 with 10 being in America’s best interest, it is up to YOU to decide to support the party nearest that 10. But no party is a 10 just as no woman is a 10. It’s so easy to understand....

RIGHT! Because it is MUCH better when a REPUBLICAN votes to import illegal immigrants, take our money, ruin our health care, ban guns, and give away billions to hostile Islamic countries, then when a DEMOCRAT does it.

MUCCCCH better.

Here in MD, you must be registered as either R or D to vote in the respective primaries, which is the only reason I have yet to change to Independent.

Strangely enough no one I know of sat on their hands waiting for perfection but liberals do love trotting that horseXhit out to defend their CHOICE to elect liberals and shift the blame over the sheer hell THEY unleashed on their country, their families and the world at large.

That said, I actually did marry the perfect woman for me because I’m awesome like that, and smart enough to not waste am existential life choice in an act of lesser evil wedding idiocy.

That is why I have stopped supporting low taxes for the rich and for corporations. When they don’t pay so much they spend more. If they are going to sell out then they should shell out.

You know how I knew I was truly an independent? The day I voted for a Democrat.

It was a low-level local position of little consequence. He ran unopposed. I know him personally and like him a great deal. He is a very, very fine man.

Still, that was a huge step for me. Until then, I pulled the lever for the R's, and if there wasn't one on the ballot, I refused to vote in that race.

So did you go number 1 or number 2?
