Hold onto your wallet....and your morals. Both will be attacked!
To allow a Democrat into the Whitehouse is pure treason. To allow a Democrat to appoint the next 3 Supreme Court Justices is pure treason. In your heart, you already know what you have to do. It's not what you want to do, but it's what you have to do.
RUMSFELD: "You go to war with the army you have, not with the army you want."
Highly qualified Conservatives like my Congressman John Culberson (Houston, TX District 7) need a Republican President in the Whitehouse regardless of the type of Republican in order to have any chance of moving the Conservative agenda forward.
Don't abandon fellow soldiers on the battlefield to be slaughtered. Never.

One thing the “Any Republican over any Democrat” group misses is that the President is also head of the national party. He gets to stamp his image on it. Having the Republican party remade in the image of a RINO would probably be even worse than President Hillary!.

If nothing else, Thompson put off answering the question for at least another week, perhaps longer depending on how he fairs in the SC primary.
I’m eagerly awaiting polling data - with a skeptical eye due to the NH errors - post debate. Lets see if Thompson ‘connected’ in a big way as a result.
Lets also see if Huckabee’s ‘momentum’ didn’t take a big hit as a result of Thompson’s performance.
Game on.
Senator Klinton is totally beatable by about 3-4 of those guys. Her negatives are going to be a big factor.
I would vote for any of them with the exception of Ron Paul. And when the ‘electable’ candidate doesn’t win I will then remind those who said a certain candidate was ‘unelectable’ and then I am all for Duncan Hunter leading a new party.
And I don’t understand the harshness towards Romney if FRed can change.
-no campaign contributions to candidates
-no coat tails for the senate or house of representatives
-no volunteers for candidates
at that point it would be darn close to game over.
“Rudy fails in all categories, McCain and Romney fail on guns, and all fail on borders. So I guess Huckabee has more to offer over the others at this point as he is at least pro-life and pro-gun.”
Good analysis. Makes sense to me.
If we can’t have Thompson, at least Huckabee is solid on the other issues. With the Border, a lot depends on popular pressure and public opinion. WHoever gets elected CAN be pressured to come over to our side, even if its through COngress. A LOT of Dems and independent voters are anti-illegal aliens.

I agree completely.
He's mean and he's crazy. I don't think he's reliable on the WOT either.
BTW, how come all of the Republican Presidential candidates truly can’t come together and create some future debates where all of the moderators are true conservatives only and all of the questions asked are from true conservatives only and all of the “questioners” are true conservatives only instead of everything coming from just the MSM all of the time? I’ve been wondering about this for a long time! The “Values Voters Debate” truly doesn’t cut it if they choose Mike Huckabee as the winner, IMHO!
Im voting for Huckabee. I think his RINO credentials have been blown way out of proportion.
Wasn’t Huckabee the Freeper Governor at one time? What happened?
If Hunter is on the ballot in Michigan, I am voting for him. None of the rest of the R’s can be trusted to be anything but RINOs, including Fred. I like him a lot, but I look at all that he has done in the past and now he wants me to believe he’ll be different.
Jim ? I will write in Fred Thompson’s name regardless...
Lordy Jim...
I'm opening an account in Sweden with what little I have left.
Mamma dollar and Pappa dollar.
You must have forgotten McCain’s terrorist protection bill he pushed through Congress.
‘Unilateral Disarmament’

President Bush has apparently capitulated on the “torture” issue, agreeing to accept, with only slight modifications, Sen. John McCain’s amendment that would ban “cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment” of terrorists in U.S. custody. CNN quotes McCain: “I think that this will help us enormously in winning the war for the hearts and minds of people throughout the world in the war on terror.”
