Then why did they vote for Webb? He's not some Lt. in the field anymore; he writes cockbooks.
That's what I was thinking. Why would a conservative vote for a man who even if he's a war hero and is as conservative and patriotic as any American who ever lived will give Rat's like Kennedy, Schumer, Clinton, Durbin, Biden, etc, etc, the Senate majority? Don't those people know that holding the Senate majority is as important in some ways as holding the White House for cryin out loud.
If I lived in RI I would have voted for Chafee even though he is one of the last people I can think of who I would vote for under any other circumstances. Because even if his Rat opponent was a paragon of conservatism and the epitome of patriotism, his value to the Rats as a rung on the ladder to majority status would prevent me from voting for him and would motivate me to vote for the liberal puke Chafee instead. Of course my original question assumes that all military voters are conservatives and I'm sure that isn't true, although I think probably more are than aren't.
Anyway it's over and done now, the Rats have Congress sewed up and our enemies in every stinking sh#thole in the Islamic world are no doubt dancing in the streets and sending gifts to each other like they did after 9/11.
