I appreciate that folks are upset about the amnesty part of this bill. I do not generally think we should simply gear ourselves to simply winning elections, but to first thinking through the issues. HOWEVER, think backward from the Dems winning and appointing two or three Supremes. Now what do you feel about the next election? Everyone can be mad at Bush, and I am aggravated at certain things, too, but we need to keep it all on the table. Want abortion to be legal forever? Then think of staying home next November. This isn’t a time to pull a Nader.

Punish his side by withholding money. Make them sweat. But I sure hope everyone is going to get out there and vote. And I hope Fred will be the nominee!

If you vote for the same, don't expect a different result.

If the GOP continues to put up big-business globalist candidates, and if the loyalists continue to vote for them, they can't call the elected RINOs.

None of the so-called RINOs got to their positions by default -- they got elected. They got elected because the other loyalists keep saying VOTE R - any R is better than a D.

Well, we see that isn't true.

If the GOP continues to put up the level of candidates they have in the last decade, the voters have little choice -- stay home or vote for a 3rd party. That and financial contributions are the only tools the voters really have.

Because, if you elect a globalist R, don't expect him to suddenly turn into a conservative.

That being said, I sincerely hope those jumping on the FThompson bandwagon look close at his record. I don't see the staunch conservative others do. I see a moderate who leans toward the globalist agenda. I think too many are projected what they want Thompson to be, not what he actually is.
