"I see zero sympathy or tolerance on this thread for anyone faced with your election choices. That’s a real shame. Frankly, I think it drives people away from both this board and conservative groups. Political power comes from votes, and votes come from building coalitions. Some prefer to go scorched earth it seems."

Citizen, look again at what the retread wrote. He said every candidate was a hard-left disgusting liberal. Is it really so difficult for you to understand why a conservative would not vote for a hard-left liberal? Of any stripe or party affiliation?

Doing so puts the political power you speak of in the hands of such people. I won't be a party to it any longer. No pro-abortion, pro-queer, pro-amnesty Republican will ever get my support.

Too many men fought and died to win that vote for me, which should be a sacred thing, not something to throw away on Republican statists just so "the party" can win.

AMEN, Catherine. These clowns pushing "Any RINO is better than a Democrat" need to answer: WHEN is that approach going to start working? Because for the past 25 years at least, it has been failing miserably, and some of us have finally figured it out.
