She is true to her core beliefs.. nothing wrong with that...

1. I have been saying too that Pureists are going to cause the party defeat in NOV .. I can only hope I am wrong and somehow those people on here and in America realize that the number one issue... The number one issue of all conservatives is the effective Prosecution of the WOT and winning the front lines of Iraq by continuing to have a strong national defense.

2. I really wish more Conservatives would stop and think about exactly why they were supporting Romney... Exactly which signature legislation or battle has he waged in support of his Conservative Principles or has our party relegated themselves to listening to the Policial Rhetoric of a man and taking that Pandering at face value.

Tearing either one apart is simply not the answer either because we have to somehow come together to defeat the Dem nominee..

Here is a hint.... insulting people using your mccain word Pureists is pushing me right at the Romney vote. By the way some people do NOT suffer from battered women syndrome.

Why ask the question about Mitt and not McCain? No one that is a conservative can vote for McCain. Just one thing - we know he wants to crush the conservative party - he’s been at it for awhile now. A conservative can vote for Mitt - as first choice, no. But the cards have been shuffled and we must play w/what we have. McCain is thrown out - and the liberal media can have their little darling.

I suggest you should seriously rethink your definition of "purist" and also to regard with less fear and more objectivity the actual consequences of a Dem win in November as opposed to a Rep win where the office holder in reality embraces MUCH (not a little bit, which is what a purist would object to, but A LOT, which is what we non-purists recognize as the more potent danger) of the intrusive government Liberal agenda in principle and deed. The WOT is not in the hands of the president alone, and I think it is much overrated as a deciding factor in the rationale people here use to support an Intrusive Government Republican who would be worse long-term from all angles than any Dem opponent.

Coventional wisdom is often an oxymoron. Conventional Republican wisdom holds that any GOP candidate isn't as bad as a Dem, and it is IN ERROR. After 25 years of banging our heads against the wall and voting again and again and again and again and again and again and again and agagin on the "conventional wisdom" principle, isn't it time we finally figured out THAT IT ISN'T WORKING????

We need to change course NOW, and the only way to do that is to withhold Republican votes from intrusive government politicians regardless of what party they belong to. I take it as my responsiblity as a voter.
