If Ron Paul is the only real conservative in Congress, it appears that there aren't many conservatives in the US. I doubt that Ronald Reagan meets your definition of a conservative either. He ran a deficit and raised taxes on more than one occasion. Nevertheless, he's my idea of a real conservative. He built a real majority for conservative Republicans. I don't like big government or the current spending trends, but I dislike what the Dims would do even more.

I'm no democrat, but when you consider democrats were in the White House for the successful prosecution of two World Wars, where are you getting that they somehow can't fight?

I'm not happy that I sometimes have to vote Republican to cast a vote AGAINST the Democrats, but I'll take what I can get.
