And what the prognosis is we throw up our hands and join the sheep?

“And what the prognosis is we throw up our hands and join the sheep?”

Keep supporting the best Republicans we can find and target with extreme prejudice the ones that fall short. Pick off Democrats where we can, with the best conservatives we can.

Support the most likely to win, while realizing you never get everything you want in politics or politicians.

Like it our not, the voters get the government that they want. We as a nation and conservatives have really sucked at choosing representatives that can’t say no to the DC koolaid or what ever it is that makes them go insane once they get to Washington.

Way too many good candidates will never run, because begging for money for your next campaign the day after you win has become the norm. Second, it is hard to imagine the amount of venom directed at conservatives. You have a entire media industry where 80% of them are looking to smear you in some way to gain points for the home team. Is it any wonder they go soft? Wanting to be liked is a universal trait. It’s tough swimming against the flow day after day.

I’m amazed that we have any decent conservatives at all.

Ron Paul is your choice? Vote for him. I hope some of this debate has been coherent and enlightening to others as to why I think it is a bone headed thing to do.

I know how frustrating it is to see the Republicans fold again and again. I will continue to do what I can to hold their feet to the fire when they do stupid things.
