I don’t care if I get flamed for this or not. I think a lot of us supported President Bush in the last election even if we were not entirely happy with what his policies. Some of us voted for him...including me, just because he was a Republican.

That said, we have really watered down our party. I have decided to stay true to my beliefs and convictions. If it means a Dem in the white house.....so be it. We can pick up the pieces later.

Eventually I believe it will come around again and maybe the next time we'll get it right.

I've noticed some other "principled" types looking forward to that prospect. Politics is about pragmatism also; you have to stay in the game to win it. I would never, ever, willingly hand over our troops, who have suffered and sacrificed so much, to the enemy.

Well, isn't that nice. I don't suppose you figured into your equation the fact that those "pieces" we'll be picking up later will be the bodies of our military men and women who were hung out to dry by a Dem in the White House. Rest well....our military doesn't.
