that is irrelevant to the discussion.
The discussion is about the lesser evil. If you don't assure the lesser evil then you do assure the greater evil.
By aiding the greater evil, you become the evil.
Your failure to act in a relative positive manner results in a negative action. Your belligerent insistance on your way or no way becomes in the end evil.
too late, I am curious about ash.
I agree with the general thrust of the argument.
I see absolutely zero benefit and 100% harm in "sending a message to the RINOs" that, has the affect of insuring we will not get another Roberts or Alito through a Democrat run judiciary committee; with the possibility of one or two more vacancies in the next two years.
Our beef with the liberal Dims and the RINOs runs on many fronts, not just the Presidency or Congress and one of the places where the agenda of the liberals has been most effective and most damaging is the courts.
The fight against the elected RINOs and GOP big-spenders should be in the primaries, and no matter what happens/happened in the primaries, the battle should leave any intra-party losses to the next primaries and go forward to secure the party leadership in Congress - for the all important judicial appointments if for nothing else. The judicial vacancies do not come about that often. We have to be in position to get our preferred judges in when the vacancies come up. There are many more appointments needed, to reverse 40 years of the buildup of the liberal judicial oligarchy. We have spent those forty years fighting to get back to where we had a GWBush who would make those appointments. We cannot, at this moment in time, give that up out of pique at the RINOs and big-spenders. We will live to regret it.
You want to send a message to a RINO or a big-spending Republican, do it in the primary, do it when they error in their votes, at the time they error in their vote, and in every primary after that vote.
You want another Ginsburg on the Supreme Court? Take your primary losses out on your own party in the general election.
I for one will not say thank you.
I think you have had a few too many falls off the horse. Your thoughts have strayed back to some english class.
I took the test. It was a great test! Here are my results:
"English Genius
You scored 92% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 80% Advanced, and 86% Expert!
You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go!
Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!"
This is real simple. Anyone who doesn't vote GOP wants the Democrats to win.
Some do it because they are really Rats and make no pretense about it.
Some do it because they really are Democrat/leftist/protectionist/socialist wolves in Republican sheep's clothing. They pretend to others (and themselves) that only they are the "real" Republicans or "real" conservatives. See, e.g., Buchanan paleoconservative types. In fact, they are as phony as a three dollar bill.
Others do it out of often malicious spite, or pompous self-righteousness (which are often the same thing). See, e.g. single issue voters (you know who you are).
And some are masochists (a form of neurosis). These are the types who would rather serve under Nancy Pelosi than rule with George W. Bush, even when politically they are much closer to Bush.
The Rats require all types, and count on them to attempt to win elections. This is why Rats are not healthy either in your house or in your Congress and/or White House.
LOL!
Note to self: principles are actually pompous self righteousness. So when I "hold my nose" and vote for the RINO Mark Kennedy this year, I won't actually be sacrificing principle, I will be shunning selfish self righteousness!
I have seen the light!

You are so true.

Vote for Bob!
You owe me a new computer screen.
Wrong!
And I don't fit in any of your reasons listed.

Sorry, neglected to ping you to #98
You are right, and it is time to rally everybody for a massive Republican upset... The Dims have positioned themselves as overconfident and underfunded, with no substance and only hate-america-first as a policy.
We need to put all of our criticisms aside as voters, and massively reject the Democrats for the entire world to see.
