This election and the one in 2016 are the most important ones in our lives

After the election is over, and after the Republicans have taken the Senate, and after not much still changes, some of us will remember the FR posters who asked that all conservative FReepers sell out to the Republican Party...again.

I wish the Republicans would campaign on issues. They tell us they need MORE MONEY so they can go to DC and not be Obama. But have they told us in an inspiring way what they'd actually do? Judging by their previous actions, will they work against Obama's policies or work to silence constitutional conservatives?

They're running this thing like it's a giant telethon and winning is collecting more money than the dems. Imagine where they'd be, in the polls and with the money situation, if they hadn't spent millions to defeat constitutional conservatives in primaries.

At this point, except for the disgusting Mississippi situation, I hope all the Repulicans who can do so will win. Not because I think they'll save the nation. But because Obama is in outright war against US citizens, culture, and civilization. We need to get his crowd out of power, before they do even more deliberate damage.

JMHO

I think we could wind up with as many as +10 seats in the end.

A pickup of 8 in the election is within reach, and 2 RAT senators are likely to jump to the GOP from WV and ME.

That would be enough to override a veto with 5 moderate RATS on popular bills like the Keystone pipeline.

The last senator from Massachusetts, Edward Brooke, was about as left as people like Schumer etc. Scott Brown was a TX conservative compared to him and probably the best possible in a state like MA. He may not be a Gordon Humphrey, but Brown’s commitment to closing the border has given me the incentive to actually donate to him get rid of shrill lefty Shaheen.

Both parties are steering us toward communism, it’s just that the Democrats are driving a little bit faster. Voting for the GOPe is voting against my young children’s futures; after all, they have proven that they will do NOTHING to stop obama’s agenda. I must fight this battle now so that they are spared from war. Voting third party assures a Dem win, which leads to a faster destruction that I can clean up. I don’t want my babies cleaning up a mess I was too cowardly to do.

You don't have to worry about me. I have never sat an election out and never will as long as I live.

I have decided not to vote for our mayor who is running for reelection, because she is a rat and didn't like nothing better than vote for every tax increase when she was in the Tennessee State House of reps.

Her two opponents who are also rats are not any better either and I refuse to vote for any rat

Yes, but the barn doors have been open for six years...or more. (Little late for that pep talk on a conservative website.)

Exactly.

The closest the typical Republican Senate candidate comes to an issue is “I wish Obama wasn’t President and I wish Obamacare hadn’t passed.” Guess what: Obama will be President for two more years no matter what, and Obamacare cannot be repealed and the GOP Senate certainly won’t push the government shutdown face-off that would be required to defund it.

There is a freedom and prosperity agenda that is begging for advocates, and isn’t getting it.

The thing I worry about most in a GOP victory next week is that they’ll take it as a mandate for their do-nothing agenda.

I’m all in for Scott Brown (and I think he’s going to win). What else can I do?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Down here in Southeast Texas, local politicians have what they call “Ten Tells Ten”. Tell 10 people to vote for Scott Brown and ask them to tell 10 people to vote for Brown and to tell “their ten” to tell 10 people to vote for Scott Brown....... Do the math.

I remember being so angry when Glenn Beck made it his top priority for about a week to make sure no one was really that happy that Brown def. Coakely for the Kennedy Seat in Mass.

He was totally tone deaf on that - it’s like he has no idea that Mass and Texas just ain’t gonna vote for the same kind of folks. Not happening. Ever.

Smoke will blow, mirrors will be jittered, much verbiage will issue, but extremely little or nothing good will come from it. Same ol' same ol'.

“GET A CLUE< IT ONLY HELPS THE RATS”

Every reason in the article can easily be applied to Republicans.

Blah Blah Blah!

The same list of crap that got us a congress and senate full of RINOS. We wouldn’t be here now if people had held to convictions.

I know that we can’t expect candidates to be perfect, but anyone who is full fledged rino(leftist) won’t be getting my vote anymore.
