So it's your contention that I'm not a "thinking person" in spite of voting Republican?

Some people here are Republican first and Conservative second, I'm not accusing you of being one, but I'm not either.

I think all politicians are basically dishonest or scoundrels. I may be wrong occasionally but I'm right far more often. And I think that if seeing congress in a deadlock for a few years is the price I have to pay to remind the scoundrels ostensibly on the right who it was that brung em to the dance, I say so be it.

It's not like I can do anything about it now anyway except encourage the people still remaining to move further right or it could be them next.

I'm not talking about you. I am ranting about a lot of people, many of whom said that they were protest voting.

I should hope not. I was a member of the NY Conservative Party before being a Republican.

I believe that clean up time is during the primary. It can happen at election day only if there is a better candidate.

This is not the lesson the media and much of the party establishment is explaining.
