For Republicans to win they have to go back to their conservative roots and not be afraid to say it with passion.

Not in Massachusetts.

He will lose. I would never vote for someone who stands for nothing. There's a broader lesson here for our party's presidential nominee. If he tries out lib Hillary, he will lose in a landslide and the result will not be close. A true conservative unapologetically stands up for his beliefs. Elections are all about ideas - not tactics. Its high time the GOP grasped it if it wants to avoid a President Hillary in our future.

I’d like to see two contests run here to see which performs better, Og running as a Republican Conservative, and what he’s doing now... :-\

I got a call from an Ogonowski operative about a month ago. (Before the primary.) She asked me my two biggest concerns. I said immigration and Iraq. She quickly signed off. She didn’t want to know if I was for victory or defeat in Iraq. I think when she heard immigration and Iraq she more or less figured I fit some template, the template of a broken glass Republican. It I am one, Dukakis, Carter and Clinton made me one.

I don’t know. I opposed the war, for reasons of classic conservatism, meaning resistance to change or new ideas that have unpredictable consequences. However, I had no better idea.

Once we started the war, I’ve been 100% supportive of it —my country is at war, and now we have to win it.

So while he could be wrong about his initial belief of the war, there’s nothing inconsistant about his position.

Sometimes you got to fight to do what is right.

Whatever, call me not eloquent.

Mindless liberalism in Massachusetts is probably a necessary example for the rest of the country to be able to actually observe just how insane things can get.

Most of my neighbors are not so bad all in all, but they are not concerned about what is best for all, and for posterity. They simply have not thought it through.

It seems so from here.
