I vote for the person who will best represent me. You can waste your vote if your so choose and piss and moan for 4 more years.

Looks like you’re ready to vote for someone who insults your believes and has no intention of seeing conservative positions be passed.

So good luck playing that card again.

I too vote for the person who best represents me. In this case neither of them represent me well but McConnell does a much better job than Grimes, so I will vote McConnell and my vote will at least cancel out one Democrat vote. Grimes represents me a lot less than McConnell and if Republicans don’t vote Grimes is exactly what we will get.

Where do you draw the line of how close someone has to be to your idea before you will vote for them. If your statement is true, that you vote for the person that best represents you then you don’t have any other choice other than McConnell or Grimes. If you aren’t going to vote for McConnell and you vote that means you will be voting Grimes. Grimes will not best represent you in the Senate. McConnell won’t represent you as you would like but he will be a whole lot better than Grimes.

People in KY are so uninformed that they don’t know McC is a traitor. They think he is their “friendly incumbent”.

This argument is absurd, the Democrats use these arguments against us all the time. Of the two evils I will choose the lesser.

The Democrat is the lesser of the two evils. Rewarding a traitor is by far the worst thing to do.

Also, if you always do what you've always done, you will always get what you've always gotten.

You cannot win a war without winning battles. Look where we are now with what the Democrats did with only two years of both houses and the White house. You want to give them more?

If the alternative is destroying the only movement which has any interest in reigning in our Federal Behemoth, then yes, I'd rather let the Democrats with "D" after their name keep it rather than let the Democrats with the "R" after their name have it.

The Democrats with "R" after their name are a far bigger problem than are the Democrats with a "D" after their name.
