I think she would do everything possible to duck debating Newt. If you ever watch how he handles Alan Colmes it's a pretty good clue how he would handle her..... and as she would get shrill (unless they sedate her and she slurs instead) he would keep the same steady tone with a twinkle in his eye and a wry grin the whole time.

From the results of the '06 election, this is what the American voter wants.

The Democrats are coming after Conservative forums such as Free Republic and Conservative talk radio next.

By the time '08 gets here and Hillary runs for President both Conservative talk radio and Conservative internet forums will be neutralized.

You're right. I know ohioWfan worked for the GOP and DeWine and even put a sign in her yard. He wasn't perfect, but voters from out of your state really had no business bashing him, when Sherrod Brown, his opponent, was so much worse.

I wouldn't take anything for granted.

Wise words. Even a man with a good heart like our President can make mistakes like signing CFR. Then there are those we know we can't trust, like McCain, and those who are just bad news, like Hillary.

They started here in about 2000 when the election first turned republican. They learned how to post here and have had no opposition since, other than posters like myself who challenged them on an individual basis.

They all pretty much shot back with insults or snarly idioms like "Bushbots", etc,,,, I know that this isn't your first thread here on FR, and I am not trying to "educate" you, I am merely explaining my dealings with these non-republicans.

Thanks for explaining where you were coming from. It's a politeness that isn't always seen around here.

And your interpretation is pretty much correct, too.

In the primaries, I will support any conservative over McCain or Giuliani.

I do not expect either to survive the primaries if there is a conservative present.

I will vote for some other Republican by write-in vote if McCain wins the primaries. I have a personal grudge against him, and I will not relent. He is a liar.

McCain will be a co-sponsor in the Senate.

Somebody will be right along to explain it to us, and tell us why they won't vote in 2008 either unless we put up the candidates they demand.

Well, if you are part of the Rosie O'Donnell wing of the Republican party that keeps throwing crap at the religious folks, maybe you should have the Republican party all to yourself...

I am saying this as a unapologetic atheist and I'll vote with my feet if you moderate suck jobs put some spineless weasel out there to lose it for us...

I have been here a good long while (Nov. '99) and I have to be in the mood to waste time posting back and forth with them.

Well we had a lot of people bashing DeWine inside Ohio, also.

My wife and I had vacation in Kennebunkport in October 2004 and spoke with the owner of the big pro-Bush restaurant in town as well as the staffers of the local Bush-Cheney HQ - all female. They were all immensely proud that they had elected two Republican Women to the Senate.

No, they aren't conservative -- but to expect to elect conservative Republican Senators in the Northeast is not rational. They did both support the judicial nominees, and true conservatives should be glad that they did. We know for sure that 'Rats from New England never would have supported the SCOTUS nominees or Janice Rogers Brown.

It will be put up or shut up for Hillary, who a few years back advocated regulation (suppression) of the blogosphere.

That's not universally true, I don't think. In fact, the majority of so-called "Bushbot's" were pro-McCain for the LONGEST time. In addition, a few of the massive political errors are far from recent. The fifth year anniversary of CFR is right around the corner, for example. McCain is bad for the party, but he has been bad for the party (and America) for YEARS. McCain is part of the problem; not the solution.

What groundswell of support for campaign finance reform? It was the MSM that promoted it.

Agreed! It was the MSM that even made this an issue back in 1999. And that's when people starting talking about it.

Hell, "reform" is a winning word. But you can't sell "reform" as a way to stop people talking to the people they elect. How can the MSM generate a "groundswell" for this sorry objective?

That's right --- it's not going to happen. Some states will only elect moderate Republicans WHEN we're lucky.

Same goes for the two Maine senators. Yes, they're liberals on most issues, but they both carry lifetime ACU ratings in the 50's whereas the democrats in neighboring states have ACU ratings in the single digits and teens!

I truly fear the dynamics that this country is headed for. It is surely sliding into a Socialism.

We will first see the typical attempt to redistribute the wealth, national health care, govt. housing, living wage mandates, and the Fairness Doctrine. (to silence the Conservative means of communication)

This will take some time and it will be introduced slowly as the Democrats take control, starting in '07. The media will have renewed influence on the public because poll propaganda has actually begun to work for them.

The American public has changed as well and it seems that the younger adults are mostly into sex, playstations, chemical abuse and avoiding moral family values. The urban America is becoming dominant over the land. Correct me if you see something I am missing here, please.

Never, Jim. Never, never, never.

This nation is based on grassroots organizations that Declared to the world we would no longer live as a continent under the tyranny of an island.

D.C. has become that island. They have become 100 times the tyrant fat King George was.
