I do believe that one can take "electability" into account, but...it must not be considered more important than principle, otherwise you end up losing everything you were trying to achieve in the first place.
File that thought in your memory for after the deaths of hundreds of thousands. Won't be many jokes then.
I grok "Lizard Queen" as another interesting epithet for Beastwoman, but whom do you mean by "Cthulhu" (sp?)?
McCain?
Actually, they're not even that consistent. Many, if not most, of them have said that they won't vote for McCain.
John Ellis Bush.
I'm done "holding my nose" to vote for the lesser of two evils. This is why globalist elites keep getting voted into office. If I don't see any honorable R candidates next time around, I will vote for a third party candidate.
That will be news to Ike Skelton (D) of Missouri.
Well, I'm f'ing worried that so many (even though, a minority - witness the earlier poll n FR) on "our" side are already making the races so personal and trying to PUSH liberal RINO filth upon us.
because it may seem easier than building your guy up.
How CAN you miss what we true Conservatives have been saying all along?
LOOK, READ, COMPREHEND.
There are links to the issues stated/voted on by OUR candidates in this very thread.
So he's now ranking member, but has held the leadership position on the most powerful committee so he is more than just 'another bench warmer'. And, frankly, we now need Hunter in the White House to tell Skelton and the rest of them how it's going to be done.
Why do you need to be reminded over and over and over?
When was a Mayor elected as POTUS?
When was a Women elected as POTUS?
When was a 70 year old elected as POTUS?
When was a Mormon elected as POTUS?
When was a half-Black man elected as POTUS?
Please add me to your ping list. Thanks
[EEE] Perhaps because FReepers care more about our nation's defense and limiting the size of government than about social issues a President has little control over and that Congressional Republicans did nothing to advance?
Congress did little to advance the idea of limited government, either, as George Will pointed out in an essay in which he primly pronounced Goldwaterism dead on the operating-room table.
The MSM is promoting Giuliani, Mitt Romney, and McCain because they think they could get social legislation passed (gun control, socialized medicine) that would kill off what's left of conservativism.
A liberal like Rudy Giuliani who understands defense and how to administer is called a 50's liberal, or sometimes is a.k.a. a NeoCon. He isn't a conservative of any description.
A liberal in charge of the GOP allows the MSM to split the conservatives off from the RNC and give them a Democrat in the White House. That's the play that is being made now.
Then you get down to the "Am I going to cast a vote, or make a gesture?" issue.
How about Hunter?

I think after you learn about Hunter you will change your tagline "Vote For Hunter" instead of "Vote For Rudy". The tide is rising for the "Patriot With The Big "R". Welcome aboard.
Don't speak for the majority of us here on FR, goofball (look at the results of the previous FR poll on this matter).
If that's ALL we care about (how can a true conservative just flippantly set aside two of our most important issues, the protection of innocent LIFE, and our 2nd Amendment RIGHTS), we might as well turn Dem and vote for men like Tester and Webb.
It HAS always been, and SHOULD always BE, about MORE than just security and fiscal matters.
Otherwise, we are no better than our DOMESTIC ENEMIES, the liberal demonRATS, and I would submit (and have submitted on MANY occasions)...
The liberal RINOs amongst us.
