Can a Republican win without Values Voters?

Let's find out. :)

Will supposed "VALUES" voters get all the Flaming Communist Democrats elected by not voting or throwing their votes down some third party black holes like a bunch of fools?

Of course not. "VALUES" voters have been up front with their voting strategy and positions for decades - long before the current election's nominating processes began. Only whining hypocrites on the right say this because they wish to act self-rightous about a result they are equally responsible for.

I'm always suspect when the party apparatus blames conservatives for their own failures - which they always seem too willing to do.

As a conservative voter I can say this. We are already ignored by the party. We vote and are ignored. If we don't vote we are ignored by whoever wins, either side. So we are left with no longer having a pratical option. We can vote for a liberal republican and get ignored and see a liberal agenda furthered by our vote. We can abstain and see a liberal dem elected, and get ignored, but at least we didn't pull the lever for that fool.

The argument that we should keep pulling the lever for the other viewpoint (liberal) is bogus and no longer moves most of us conservatives. We have no representation of our views either way. It begins not to matter.


We need to be a bit wiser with our votes than the dems are toward the blacks in their party. They get a pass on doing anything for blacks because blacks feel that they have no place else to go. We are different. We can stay home and watch the republicans sink their own ship if they are going to continue with the forward path to liberalism.

We have pulled the 'party line' lever long enough. It is time for the party to fish or cut bait as far as our votes are concerned. You can be d...n sure that they will not win without our vote, and maybe that is the real lesson we need to teach them.

No turnout? Possibly because people got tired of shilling for a liberal republican. Eventually it gets so sickening that you can't even pull that lever without puking, and you just say no.
