It seems that people who gave us 8 years of Clinton, because they wanted to show the Republicans by voting for Perot, learned nothing.

Yep. They are back to acting like spoiled children threatening to take their ball and go home if they don't get what they want. They really don't care about the country, only about their pet issue of the moment. Great patriots, aren't they?

Yes I quite agree with you that anyone with a vague script of conservative DNA in his genes and who was fooled and voted for Perot, unwittingly visited eight years of corruption, buffoonery, and grave danger upon the nation.

One thing about Bill Clinton, he could live in a world of utter unreality and indeed impose it on the whole of the country except with respect to one issue, he never deceived himself about how to win votes. He did what it took, and he took the positions necessary to be elected and reelected so many times. Lately the Democrats, although not Bill Clinton, have taken to blaming the electorate for their failures at the polls. It would be very dangerous for us to ape the rats.

If we could not make the case against Bill Clinton and Perot in 1992, it is our fault and not the electorate' s. We can make our case, or rather, we could have made our case, without betraying our principles. Can you imagine how much different things would be today if we had forced votes on drilling and refining and etc. and if we had even come close to managing our borders? If we hadn't taken bribes?

Rather than railing at the voters, let's look first at the professionals whose job it is to advance conservative principles and then present their record of legislation to the country for approval. So far they have done neither.

This is an imbecilic remark.
If you Republicans wish to win the solution is simple...run conservatives. I myself will not, ever, vote for any other type of candidate.
Of course folks like yourself are more than willing to forsake any moral and logical discretion you may have in order to boast of your (Pyrrhic) victories.

“We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all.” --- Ronald Reagan, 1965
