No need to get nasty here! I asked an honest question because, as a naturalized citizen, I take the right to vote very seriously. The question of whether to vote for a RINO or a conservative democrat is a fair one, as demonstrated by the variety of responses here. My mother-in-law used to say that people figure others do the way they themselves do. Are YOU voting for Obama?
The time for defeating RINOs is in the GOP Primary. Every vote in the US Senate is a pro-Obama vote or an anti-Obama vote. Period. Your US Senator either votes WITH harry reid or votes against him.
Primaries are the place where we make RINOs pay for their defections to the dark side. But anybody who puts Harry Reid closer to a filibuster-proof majority gives him the ability to: Cut of Iraq funding, Remove secret ballots from the workplace to force unions into every company, Raise a variety of taxes, Appoint Hillary to the Supreme Court....
Be careful because you are affecting all of us, not just people in your own state.
Thanks, I will certainly keep that in mind.
Bob Conley lost because the liberal Democrats threw their support to Lindsey Graham. As a life-long Republican, I worked for the Conley campaign. Graham won, because the Democrats supported him. That means that liberal Democrats are smarter than Republicans.
