Fine by me. I'll grant you all points to get past the pissin contest.

You're correct. For whatever reason, the voters, incidentally on the same side of the incumbent, voted to keep DeWine, thus encouraging RINO's to believe that the less conservative they act, the more chance they have of getting re-elected.

So what, in addition to casting our vote against the milquetoast candidate in a primary, can we do to encourage the machinery of the party to support more conservative candidates? Otherwise, even if the GOP maintains control of the govmt, will they eventually trend away from DeLays and toward the DeWines?

Or is voting as the losing loyal conservative minority in our own "party" all we should ever aspire to?

It's called a trap, son. Eat your broccoli, do the right thing. It isn't about you. Et cetera, et cetera.
