Take a look at independent voters. There are more of them than before, especially in the West. More than 25 percent of Arizona voters now register as independent or third-party voters. And according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll, they've shifted sharply toward the Democrats in this fall's elections.

I think its you who needs to buy a clue

Have you not yet realized that the Republican rhetoric of “we favor freedom, free enterprise, limited government, and responsibility...we're opposed to big government"...is a lie? Apparently always has been. Time to start facing reality my neoliberal Republican FRiend

BTW...I noted that Chucky Schumer wants to further expand the $1.2 trillion Medicare expansion the President and Republican Congress gave us in 2003...he should find much support among the Democrat Congress and our "compassionate conservative" President

And did you see how excited the President got at his press conference when told that he may now have support in Congress for his illegal alien amnesty program....I mean...comprehensive immigration reform?

Liberty voters (not Libertarians) elected the 1994 Republican majority.

In all the years the Democrats were in power they always "took care" of their factions. Not every faction got all that they wanted - but they all got something.

The Liberty voter's interests have a vanishingly small place in the Rove "base".

This is an error, and will hopefully be reversed soon.

Only the religious are used to not being liked--and the religious really hate to lose.

We get it. You lost and you're going to be hateful about it.

Sorry about that. My post was supposed to have been to meandog at #13, in reference to his last sentence.
