Please don't think that way. I thought that in '92 and voted for Perot and it got us 8 years of Clinton. We're going to be paying for those 8 years for decades. I believe that 9/11 occurred because Clinton ignored the growing terrorism threat - just like he ignored or just paid lip service to all our major issues.

Vote for the most conservative candidate available in the primary, but vote for the Republican in the general. Don't sit it out or don't cast a protest vote. If you do, then you have no right to complain if a Clinton clone gets elected to high office.

Believe me, as one who had to clamp my nostrils shut with several clothspins to pull the lever for Arlen Specter, I don't make this admonition lightly.

Channel your energy into the primaries. If we show up for those, we'll have the power to replace a RINO with a conservative.

This should be our strategy. Taking our marbles and staying home is the strategy the other side hopes we follow.

I feel your pain, and I agree with you on what some power-players in our party are doing right now. I want NO amnesty, and a secure border.

If you had lived under as many dim administrations as I have, you would NEVER think that way. Your mantra was sung on volume 10 during klintoons first election. In 1996, not even a whimper could be heard from that crowd.

Never forget that gore tried to STEAL A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. We as Conservative Republicans have to not only win elections, but keep the enemy from outright stealing them. Dead dims voting, illegals voting, and suing to overturn legitimate elections are a few of satan's tricks. We cannot afford to send "feel good" messages when our Nation may very well falter under the next dim controlled government. I am really scared of a mushroom cloud over an American city. With dims in power, the probability of that happening goes up ten fold. This is one example only.

History is our friend, and we should learn when NOT to repeat it.

Keep telling our pols that, "CONSERVATISM WORKS WHENEVER IT IS TRIED"!

I also am not backing mclame, and my earler post is not about electing him. We can keep that nutcase off of the ballot if we keep our eye on the sparrow.
