We've tried to do that for over 30 years.
How much SUCCESS have we had?
The "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" wanted DemocRAT votes, so NOW THEY'RE going to GET DemocRAT votes !

“We here at Free Republic”??? Who made you the spokesman? Some of us have been around here years before you showed up. It used to be a friendly place to spend time and to share ideas and rarely did we see personal insults.

Well then, I guess staying home is the only answer. Don't support anyone in the primary, don't donate any money to them, don't talk them up to your friends, just stay home on election day, that’ll show ‘em!

Vote for conservatives in the primaries, republicans in the general.

Conservatives, and Christians in particular, cannot vote for any candidate, Primary or General Election, who supports either Abortion, the Gay Agenda, and/or Amnesty if they want to keep their principles intact, and for Christians, if they want to stay Christians.

For Christians to vote for anyone supporting these sinful policy positions means they are sinning and lose their relationship with God.

Let's take care of Reid and his pet RATS, first.

You are just being played by Reid et al, now!

“Scott Lively is getting my vote for governor and I’m leaving the senate race between Markey and Herr blank”

Jesus Mike, Brian Herr's a friend of mine. I've worked with him for 10 years in the private sector. Is he as conservative as me, of course not. He's a good guy and he is far more conservative than any other Republican to run for Senate in years. He wants to wage war on Obamacare and he's about as good as it gets on immigration for a Mass Pol. Please give him a chance.

There is just no getting to a RAT Tool, like you.

Go ahead and be a fool. You are a waste of my time.

“Sorry Scottie ... I'll be doing a write in for US Senate on my NH ballot on Tuesday morning. He and Shitheen are two peas in a pod. If he looses on Tuesday, you'll see this F’ing carpetbagger pack up and head to another state to try again in 2016 ... and good riddance to him when he leaves.”

Just vote for NH born and bred Shaheen, no more carpetbaggers!

Nope, not voting for her.

Aren’t you tired of being to told who to vote for by the powers that be GOP?

I’ve said Mississippi is one place to take a stand. Your overall point is still womanish and emotional and just plain stupid.


Stupid?

YOU bend over for back stabbers! Go peddle your GOPe liberal loving garbage somewhere else!

Oh, I'm a Democrat tool?
Please support this assertion — especially since I'm working toward rooting out corruption and holding government officials to account.

Go ahead and be a fool. You are a waste of my time.

Because I see the Republican Party's offerings as detestable and not representative of myself?
(Or would you counsel people in Mississippi to vote for the Republican regardless of actions on his behalf?)

“In the mean time, I’ll take back any ground I can.”

That’s what we need to do or all our states will look like democrat controlled California. Defeat the democrats!

Of course you’re voting for her. I like Bob Smith as much as the next guy, but he’s not on the ballet. Brown didn’t win because the GOP wished it. He won because he got more votes. Here’s a suggestion, write in Harry Reid. Jeff Sessions says Scott Brown’s a good guy, and we need him in the Senate. That’s enough for me, or is Jeff Sessions a RINO too?

Still, this year at least, voting Republican as the default position makes sense...

I agree no rule of thumb is a substitute for judgment, sometimes it may make sense to hold your nose and vote, sometimes not.

I had no problem supporting Brown in Mass. He was reasonably the most conservative candidate that could be elected.

To a large degree that's the case in Senate and House races.

Except...when you have an eGOP candidate calling his base racist...or Neanderthal...or any number of names.

Any candidate who runs against ME can be assured he won't have my support. Nor should he expect it.

We, the rank and file control the nominating process...

Sure...just like we control the vote...except that's crooked, too.

Do remember Einstein's definition of insanity, will you?

And consider my tagline...

"Die-hard conservatives thought that if I couldn't get everything I asked for, I should jump off the cliff with the flag flying-go down in flames. No, if I can get 70 or 80 percent of what it is I'm trying to get ... I'll take that and then continue to try to get the rest in the future."

I believe he was referring to negotiating with the other party...not his own.

If a man knew a flood was coming but only had 70% of the sandbags he needed he should:

I think your analogy is flawed.

If that is in fact the case, he should assume a flood and mitigate the result by moving what he can to higher ground and get out of the way.

But I don't think it's the case. I think he doesn't have sandbags, but paper grocery bags.

The tools at hand are not sufficient to get the job done...much like expecting an eGOPer to act like a leader.

I understand that, but it’s the leftward swing of the electorate that we’re up against.

too bad there can't be an adult conversation with assholes like you: so prepare to be embarrassed - you JUST STEPPED IN IT DEEP - which I bet you do a lot frankly.
