Again, you seem to insist that John Warner get a pass because he acted out of "conscience".

In Virginia, the 1994 Senate race WAS a debacle due to John Warner's actions. Actions for which you insist I excuse and that he pay NO PENALTY for. You get all upset when *I* am ready to make Warner pay for HIS disloyalty.

I find your comments towards me somewhat hypocritical. Particularly since you yourself have posted that Rosario Marin would not get your vote if she were running against Barabra Boxer in the general election?

You ask me to forgive John Warner's disloyalty to a conservative nominated by the Republican party for a seat in the United States Senate. Yet should Rosario Marin win a PRIMARY ELECTION among Republicans in the State of California and therefore become the Republican nominee, you refuse to support her over a disagreement on an issue.

You really have NO grounds upon which to criticize my refusal to support John Warner. You will in fact, indirectly elect a Demcorat on far shakier grounds than those I have cited against Senator Warner. So, who is really being hypocritical here? The one who will not support a backstabber and being upfront about his refusal to do so, or the one who demands I overlook the backstabbing and who appears ready and willing to do some backstabbing should a primary not have a favorable outcome?

Wrong.

Your decision not to vote for Warner was a vote of conscience: yours.

I totally respect that.

I'm baffled as to why you don't extend the same to others.

You really have NO grounds upon which to criticize my refusal to support John Warner.

Can you really have missed the point that badly?

I haven't criticized your vote; I've simply pointed out that by your own logic, voting for Warner was a vote for a Democrat.

I didn't say it was my logic.
