I'm 50 years old and I've been voting straight Republican my whole life (okay, there were a couple of Libertarian votes when I was much younger).
But I've got bad news --
I won't be voting for Brown again. I won't vote for any RINO. Which means that it is unlikely that I will vote in MA very much in the future.
MA may go further Left; I don't care. I will not be an enabler of the abomination called RINOism. The establishment GOP lost me this year.
True. Senator Vicky Kennedy appreciates your non-vote which will help her win.
Every time a FReeper pushes conservatives,
you, raccoonradio, mock them trying to push
them to Romney, Romney toadies, and Democrats.
Please consider going back to DU, where your
RINO, pro-DNC, tautologies will be appreciated.
America is ready for conservatives.
Get with the program.
That is why.
I hope the democrat wins if another republican can’t be found. Getting screwed on most every thing isn’t going to cut it.
We must punish these kissasses even it it costs us a few seats at first. Then the others will fall in line. Failure to do so, leads to constant abuse.
I can’t tell them apart anymore. I don’t have much confidence in the new bunch coming in. Probably just more dick for’s.
>>inform their discretion....
The American people certainly need to be educated regarding the basics of their politics and economics. A great part of the problem lies with the fact that we have trusted the Democratic and Republican parties with a child-like faith. Instead of informing the discretion of the American people, the two parties have manipulated the people with their clever rhetoric for their own selfish gain.
Yeah, what I had in mind was real conservatives, not Republicans.
Here in Eastern Idaho it is predominantly Mormon. Our Sen. Mike Crapo is (fairly) conservative. Being a local boy he tries to serve the wishes of his base. I’ve done some cabinet work for them. They have a very modest home. And his wife really doesn’t want anything to do with the politics. Just stays home as much as possible.
So I guess we are lucky in that respect. Red State. Conservative representation.
But at his re-election speeches he just kept saying what was wrong with the economy, etc. We know what the hell is wrong Mike. What we want to know is what YOU are going to DO.
We’ll see. But I ain’t holding my breath.
Here in CA I have a Republican Congressman, Elton Gallegly, who's acting much the same way as Mike Crapo, following and not leading. All politicians think about is reelection. Sadly, as Los Angelenos migrate to my little town away from the liberal hell they've created for themselves, Ventura county is becoming more and more liberal. I suspect our politicians will reflect that trend rather than stand up for real conservative principles. Barring a miracle I think CA's kaput.
Not to worry. The way these fools are going, we're all gong to be kaput.
I live in Shelley.
The list is long and if the GOP don’t start growing balls we might have to show them what balls mean
Good Conservative? LOL
Liberalism and voting for government takeovers is anything but conservative.
Of course, I don't have a dog in the fight since I don't live in taxachussets.
