Well, if you look at the behavior of our Republicans in Congress over the past eight years, true Conservatives like Jeff Sessions and John Cornyn have been few and far between.

It's like after the 1994 revolution, and Gingrich's and Livingston's departure, the RINO's took over...the final blow was the abandonment of DeLay, whom I didn't like as a person, but who was the last bit of glue in the caucus.

It is a sad day indeed. Unlike you I will support Romney, if I get the chance, but I will not vote for McCain no matter what. Insanity is the BIG disqualifier for the presidency.

Are you sure you don’t mean Tom Coburn ? Cornyn hasn’t seemed like much of a Conservative leader (although he is better than his seatmate). I actually liked DeLay, he was a tough SOB. Hastert I didn’t care for (personally, he was OK, but as a leader, he was subpar, and the fact he was a part of the IL Combine was not good. The Combine is the reason they ran the excellent Conservative Pete Fitzgerald out of the Senate and replaced him with Obama. Had they supported Fitzgerald, Obama would still be an obscure state legislator today).

Well, I’m not voting for McCain, either, even in the general election, but he will probably be the nominee at this point, and we should pray he picks somebody like Gov. Mark Sanford or Tom Coburn as his running mate and then kicks the bucket (which I expect he will early in his term, he’s already older than his father was when he died). But Romney I’d crawl over glass to vote against. He really would make me vote for Hillary or Obama to stop him. My big disqualifier is that I won’t vote for people who lie to my face, and that guy doesn’t even know how to be honest. How he gets any Republican or Conservative support absolutely defies the imagination. I’ve been at the forefront leading the charge against him since he started to seriously float his name about 2 years ago and I have no intention whatsoever in stopping now.
