"I'm a conservative and I will not be voting for the Republicans this election cycle."

I hope you are aware of the consequence: DEMS back in power. As a conservative, is THAT what you really want, to cut off your nose to spite your face?

cut off your nose to spite your face?

I don't accept the premise of your statement. Clearly, the GOP is incompetent. The only way to get competent people is office is to remove them. Why do you think anything will change by keeping the same bozos in power?

Than they better start acting like conservatives once again and stop supporting the dem libs. And not to pass the dems bills like the martinez/kennedy(Mccain/Specter) bill.

Prove to us they still believe in American values and enforce our laws!

Maybe the consequences will be a set of candidates who actually listen to their constituents. The first step toward rebuilding the party.

Surely you're not suggesting the Democrats may waste more money than the Republicans? I don't think that's feasibly possible.

So Republicans should take for granted the votes of conservatives as in say the way that democrats take the votes of black Americans?

I am fortunate, I can go ahead and not vote with impunity as long as I still reside here in this Commonwealth led by crooks on Be-A-Con Hill.

I know many other conservatives that feel the same way. That old lame scare tactic isn't going to work this election cycle. The republicans are almost indistinguishable from the Dims with ranting loons and turncoats on both sides of the isle.

I'm voting for the most conservative candidate, whether that be a Republican, Libertarian, Independent, or even the Constitution party. I doubt the Dim's would offer up a conservative and party politics makes me hesitant to vote for either major party.

It's clear to me the Republicans have squandered their majority victories and seem to perform better when the opposition party is in a position to challenge them. America needs a change from the old ways of thinking because it's steering us down the path of socialism little by little each year.

Methinks he's saying he's rather have an actual Democrat, as opposed to a RINO who SAYS he will do something conservative, but ends up always voting like a Democrat anyway.

That way, NEXT election, you can elect a REAL conservative, not a faux-conservative RINO.

And I can see his point. . . .

Waving the boogey man of Demonrats being back in power isn't going to scare anyone to the polls anymore. We have the most liberal government possible with the Republicans in charge. Not even Demonrats have been as liberal as Bush and Co..

So what? 100mph or 20mph ... Dem or GOP we're still going over the socialist cliff.

If the GOP wants to be the party of conservatives, they need to BE conservative and have a backbone. If not, there's always the Constitution Party.
