[Another Thought]

I love it when the Republicans call me now. I tell them the Party will not get another cent from me. I will give to individual candidates that I think are responsive to constituents and who stand for the same principles I stand for.

Yes, I say the same thing. I do tell them I'll give to the party organization once I am convinced the leadership is dedicated to conservatism.

I know there will always be liberal Republicans, and I don't expect there to be 100% agreement between me and every other Republican. But the divide is now too wide.

I don't expect perfection--I can abide some disagreement in the party. But right now we're too far apart.
