Listen, I voted straight republican but not for Perry in TX. The GOP did not respond to the conservative nation. The dems kept Pelosi and Reid in a closet for three wks before the election. The democriatic party used to have values in common with most americans, and it was their social issues where we differed. When they went off the deep end and supported all those special interest factions which were out to erase our traditional values...they blew it. They see it now. When the congressional GOP failed us...they really did need to be jerked up short. They either stand for us or they don't. If they don't, they need to be booted. Lets see how the next two years play out. The dems will either respond to the preferences of a nation or special interest groups. They too can hang themselves. I would rather have them (dems)hang themselves in the next 2 years then see them take it all in 2008. The GOP needs to keep its nose clean.
So you threw your vote away to Strayhan or Kinky to help make it more possible for failed liberal Congressman Bell become Governor. Doing that is part of the problem and the very thing that helped cost us the Congress, and cost us a conservative Supreme Court nominee which is impossible now with a Senate Democrat majority. You don't get it do you?
