Sorry, Jim, but I think the stakes are too high this time to afford daliances with third parties or sitting out the election.

I've been here since 1998 and this claim is ALWAYS made. And it is always made by a person trying to convince someone else to vote for a non-conservative candidate.

We help elect a Republican president and then hold him accountable.

Mm-hmmm, that's what we were promised about President Bush when people got skittish over Bush's "compassionate conservatism" rhetoric. It didn't quite work out as promised.

Face it, if another lib republican makes it into the white house there will be no holding his feet to the fire. There will be cheerleading and shouting down of people who DO try to keep him accountable. It's happened that way before, it'll happen that way again.

It just might save the Republic.

Or it just might kill it.

Well said, thanks for your response on this thread.

BINGO We have a winner! I have a better idea, lets all get behind a Fred/Duncan ticket and kill the beast....
