Just think how scary that is: you do realize, of course, that posters like you and I are consider "the mushy middle" by the "real, true conservatives," right?
If they pi$$ us off, IMO they are lost.
I had to go pick up my daughter , did something happen??
Yeah, I know.
But the main reason I voted for the President in 2000 as a moderate liberal at the time was because of his Character. His Faith. I put Character above all politics. I place it above ideology. It transcends everything. It is the main reason I'll never vote for McCain. He is a man without any honor.
I am a conservative. I am not a Republican. I work within the Party toadvance conservatisms because I believe in it, and support people I believe will advance it. I don't expect all or nothing right away, but under no circumstance will I tolerate cowards. Under no circumstance do I tolerate betrayal. Just as I worked to create this majority and put this President in office, I will experience no hesitation in bringing down any Rep that betrays us all.
I cannot tolerate the thought of ati-American appeasers in office, but worse I cannot tolerate those cloaked in pretense as Republicans.
Character Matters.
Yes, many of us are and that's why our voices are needed right now. We can't continue to let the MSM and Dems paint the nominees as right-wing, judicial extremists. We cannot let a few marginal Republicans use us for trade, believing that we are a small group of extremists.
