I took my solution! I voted my values and sat it out. Wasn't NONONO way I was going to waste gas (especially at that price) to go vote for Liberal A or Liberal B. When they give me someone to vote for who supports my values, I'll happily vote for them. Til then I sit it out.

Flaming??? Lemme tell you something. Anybody who can be stabbed in the back by McCain the DOZENS of times that conservatives have been and still vote for him DESERVES to be flamed cause they're IDIOTS!

All that your appeasement of the GOP has done is to tell them that supporting RINOS is just GREAT by you, so expect a LOTLOTLOT more of them in your future!

It's going to take something monumentally serious to get the GOP's attention and MAKE them know that they have a problem with their base. Individuals cutting off donations won't do it. THe Party gets plenty of corporate / non-profit donations. They don't NEED our donations.

All we got to voice our displeasure is our vote and as long as you're voting for the lesser, they're going to take the tack that that's who you WANT to vote for and thats what they're going to encourage and where their funding is going to go and support: RINOS and more RINOS!

All that's going to get their attention is when we start sitting out elections and when they can't assume that we're going to vote their straight party ticket. No amount of phone calls, no amount of emails, no amount of mails are ever going to get their attention. Until they get a united front of some kind, they'll continue to be the arrogant pricks they are.

I stand by what I said.

You took the coward's way out, and for this you pat yourself on the back? You were too lazy to do your civic duty, and now feel empowered to tell others what do to? If you didn't vote, you forfeit your right to complain. People like you let dangerous members in gov't, such as the soon-to-be seated Senator Franken. You sold us all down the river, because you didn't get your way.

I can look at any patriot who has ever lived directly in the eye and say that I voted for the person I believed would do the most good, or least harm to my country. You can only say that you voted when it was convenient that you were wiling to forfeit the rights that millions have died for, because you didn't agree 100% with the party you chose to affiliate yourself with. If you had any pride - you'd hang your head in shame. Polictial junky by sweet bumpkis. You didn't even bother to vote ... and you are arrogant enough to insult those who did.... are you sure you wouldn't be more comfortable at the Democratic Underground? There's a lot of people who refuse to vote there, and flame those of us who do chose to perform our civic duty.
