Boy you only see what you want to see, don’t you. I don’t have a preference for democrats. I want the democratic handmaidens removed from office.

“We never give up captured territory—we hang on until we can improve our team.”

How exactly to we improve our team by keeping the same worthless people and the same worthless leaders?? I guess we just wait for senate seats to open up and go after those, is that it? That’s how we end up with “republican” senators like Jeffords and Specter and Murkowski. Of course when seats do open up, the NRSC and the RNC support such candidates as Charlie Crist, now a democrat and Lincoln Chafee, now a democrat.

Mitch McConnell is 70 years old and has been in the senate since 1986. Don’t you think it’s time for him to step aside?? If a politician screws you over, do you keep voting for him or her just because there’s an “r” next to their name on the ballot? Isn’t that convenient...for them. No matter what they do, they will never have to face comeuppance for their votes because they have enough sheeple to keep any challenger from tossing them from office.

And just to flip your wig even further, no I don’t want someone like Scott Brown. I voted for him in 2010 when he ran as a conservative then once he was elected he voted continually with the democrats. I left his office blank on my ballot in November and will again should he be the nominee for the special election here. I will support whoever runs against him in the primary. Brown will be another Jim Jeffords who will all of a sudden become “uncomfortable” with the republican party.

And just so you know, I am looking at the big picture, which is to elect as many conservatives as possible, not as many republicans as possible. That means keeping up the pressure on the wobbly ones in office to vote conservative or be challenged. I hope McConnell’s support goes down down down so he’ll be forced to retire. Kentucky just elected Rand Paul two years ago. McConnell’s not the only person in the state that can beat a democrat.

You are a political illiterate and obviously think you're eventually going to be able to create Heaven on Earth and it is NEVER going to happen. We must go for the best we can get. You are the friend of liberalism and you make Democrats' jobs easier.

Do you understand the necessity of a Republican majority? Do you realize how this sausage is made?

There's only ONE strategy that pays off in the long run and that is Wm F. Buckley's strategy of always voting for the most conservative THAT CAN WIN!! Winning is everything, without it, we have nothing.

If you like Democrat majorities, keep doing what you're doing because you're electing Democrats.

To show you how schizo are today's Freepers, I have already seen Freepers tear into Rand Paul--he's not good enough either.

These Freepers are committing political suicide. If I were George Soros, I would help fund Free Republic because there are many on here who are Democrats' best friends. It's time to wake up and stop helping Democrats.

Republican Congressional Leadership is old, tired, and out of fresh ideas. All they want now is to be like Robert Byrd and die in office rather than step aside and let someone younger take the reins.
