It's too early to tell if it will be a stay at home base, like Ohio, or a :Throw the bums out base like in 94. One of them will occur.

If you vote for Democrats, you'll have to live under those sumb**ches just like I will.

You remind me of a guy who threatens to blow his own brains out because he doesn't like something I'm doing.

More like being attached to somebody else, and if separated, you both die. One would be wise to forebear from telling the other guy what an asshole he is for sticking around.

Well, I can assure you I'd never vote for a Democrat. Ever. Under any circumstances. I could conceivably leave a race unmarked, or vote for a third party, but NEVER a Democrat.

Now that that's out of the way, I believe that the argument you're advancing is that conservatives have a duty to just shut up if they can't actively support the nominee. Isn't there room in our Party for dissent? For honest and heartfelt disagreement?

Are we all expected to just rubberstamp any nominee or position put forth by our President?

Deal me out for that.

I'm undecided about this nominee. I hope to learn more during the confirmation hearings, which I believe she's entitled to.
