So, then, you believe that whether or not you vote on 'principle' depends on what STATE you live in?? Interesting principles you have there...

Well, I didn't say it but it's true of me, living in one of the three Red states and I said the same thing in 2000 when I voted for Bush.

The liberal things I didn't want, I've gotten. Okay, he campaigned on them. So I drank the koolaid.

I didn't get the Scalia-style justices, my main reason for giving in. And the party refrain in 2000 was "if for no other reason, vote Bush for the judges". Where are my Scalia-type judges?

And now he urges the Congress to spend even more wildly and in deficit, borrowing the money from the children (yes, the children, better drag their scruffy little selves into it).

And now a huge new drug entitlement, fling the borders open, pander to groups that will never vote conservative while stiffing us who are conservatives.

I could duck behind the "I'm in a Red state" excuse. But I don't get what it is I'm supposed to be voting for and what I should expect from it. And the activists I know are awfully quiet. I can't find any conservatives who are planning to run. Not even 'true conservatives', I mean I can't see candidates with even slight Republican tendencies.

You must live in a very different place than I do if you think all is well within the GOP ranks.

When did I say that??

Oh........and did you forget about the Dems in the Senate changing all the rules to keep the very conservative judges the President wants on the bench OFF the bench with lies and filibusters?

Sorry. You see what you want to see, and you prefer to see all negative.

Well, I see a strong President who is fighting a successful war on terror, has returned respect and honor to the military, and is moving us back toward a culture of responsibility and morality in this nation.

And all three of those trump prescription drugs in my book, and all the other things you've mentioned as well.
