Washington Whispers: GOP voters: like a rock

Considering the deadly results of electing Clinton apparently you have learned NOTHING.

[Wolfstar]

I'm not a single issue voter, and there are Republicans I would vote for. But for the most part, Rs are wrong and/or weak on many fronts, not just immigration. Let the RINOs learn there's no place for them in the party, even if we lose congress. We'll get it back when the party learns that conservatism is the only path to power.

Waaaaaaaaa...poor baby. You just aren't up for the tough choices of our time, now are you, weenie?

BTW, who placed you in charge of deciding who does and does not have a place in ANY political party, Republican or otherwise? Political parties are private organizations. Choice of party registration is a voluntary, personal one for all Americans -- indeed, all free people everywhere.

Our system is one in which citizens from all walks of life, and all belief systems, voluntarily put themselves forward for elective office at all levels of society. Voters then make their choices. Got a problem with that, bub?

[RinaseaofDs]

If this is thread hijacking, I don't care, especially after today:

Border security is not something we want to play politics with, or something we want to be compassionate about.

Screw comprehensive, shut the borders down now.

[RadioCirca1970]

Today proves it the Stakes are just too high to trust these 60's retreads with the safety of my children...and your children too!

[beeler]

Stay home, don't vote. Work in non-democratic ways to better the country. Have lots of kids and homeschool them. Work to teach the next generation of our founding principles. The Left came to control this country more through non-democratic means than at the ballot box. With Republicans in power, Leftists still control this country because they control every cultural institution in it. We need to infiltrate these institutions or build our own to counter them.

[Howlin]

And you have to wonder why they'd "pretend," don't you?

[Miss Marple]

Oh, you can "deal with" the left? I see. WOuld this be how Kerry wants to "deal with" the terrorists?

What a crock. You are not even a 1 per center. You are a democrat troll who has so far used about every cliche I've ever read on conservatives and Republicans.

What, did they hand you a pamphlet on "How to Post Like a Real Conservative?"

[tioga]

It will be depressing to go vote in NY this year.....elliot spitzer commercials are all ready flooding the airways....he wants to run for president some day after he runs NY into the ground, as does hillary.

[longtermmemmory]

correction the MSM reporting of internal polls

we can't trust ANYTHING from the MSM.

Look at Rueters,
Look at AP
Look at CNN

all have faked stories,

[NeoCaveman]

Atleast the Spencer v. Hillary race will be more fun than the Schumer v. Mills race was.

[justshutupandtakeit]

Then how is conservativism going to win if there are few conservatives?

LoL your logic is brilliant, brilliant I say.

[BamaAndy]

The GOP can count on me every election--not that it isn't in need of some courage and stronger convictions--still far better than anything the dems have offered since 1968, the year I started voting and voting straight Republican.
Besides, here in Tennessee we have to defeat Harold Ford Jr. or rue the day.

[beeler]

NC is the weak link in the Southern US and is not necessarily indicative of the rest of the South. We have the highest taxes in the SE and are inundated with Yankees. You have to work hard to find conservatives, but they're still here. And then there's the yellow dogs, who have faded in much of the South, but still tend to be a majority here, at least on the local level. But even the yellow dogs tend to be conservative, if you pin them down on the issues.

[IL Republican]

I plan to vote Republican, but I'm not real excited to vote for Judy Bar... Neither of our Senators are up for reelection, and Jerry Weller appears to be fairly safe. My vote is pretty meaningless this time around.

[capt. norm]

What, did they hand you a pamphlet on "How to Post Like a Real Conservative?"

I think you nailed it. We have encountered a "Seminar Poster".

[maxter]

"Sure, some of our guys aren't all they could or should be, but some of them are and a rising tide lifts all boats."

Right. Some new conservative candidates will be headed to Washington DC come November as well. Keep the faith people.

[Wolfstar]

Allowing 23 million illegal aliens who have no desire to assimilate to our culture and country is hardly a petty thing, now is it?

So go vote for your real love, Pat Buchanan...or his toady, Tom Tancredo. But don't come on here and pretend you're a true, blue Republican and all the "Republicans you know personally" are not up for the job of protecting this nation against Islamofacism.

Border and immigration issues can be solved by people of good will. Islamofacism cannot be solved if Democrats regain power. Period. Oh, and by the way, if the Dems regain power, they will pass a GENUINE amnesty and open borders bill faster than you can squat. Republican border and immigration solutions may not be as draconian as many would like, but they sure as heck are a whole lot tougher than what people like Ned Lamont and his newest hangers on, Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters, and Al Sharpton would give us.

[jazusamo]

The Dims are left, and I can deal with that. You bet it concerns me more when the only opposition party is trending Left just like the enemy.

There's a big difference in a few of a Party trending left and the majority of a Party already being there.

Just how do you propose to deal with the Dems if they control Congress? Sounds like to me you'll just sit at your keyboard and complain louder but it will be too late to do anything about it then.

[Howlin]

NC is the weak link in the Southern US and is not necessarily indicative of the rest of the South

But that's not what you SAID, is it?

You have a very unknowledgeable grasp on things, especially in this state.

Do me a favor: don't vote; you don't have enough knowledge of the facts to make an intelligent choice.

[beeler]

The Left could do much more damage to this country in the long-run than the Islamofacists. Besides, at this point, I trust myself for my own defense much more than I trust our imcompentent and politically-correct government. Start the profiling of Muslisms at our airports now.
