“Obama also will cut and run from Iraq, if that is your idea of Conservative, losing in a war in a snit, then by all means.”
See, this is the problem.....Conservatives are always told to fall in line behind moderates or RINO’s because there is always one issue to which we risk to the opposition party if we fail to vote, blah, blah, blah. As noted in your response, there’s is always a tinge of guilt associated with keeping conservatives in line and pulling them back in line to support the Republican Candidate. A lot of us have had it with this party who has taken us for granted but granted us NOTHING!!!
If there were not people fighting for us at the moment, then “sure”, if this were 2000 I’d gladly vote for...err wait a minute I didn’t vote for...
Point being, this isn’t tax cuts or trade policy, there is an actual war going on, and that IMO, should take precedence over everything else.
If 200,000 of America’s finest can drop their lives and join the military to fight in Iraq or Afghanistan, then I think I (we) owe them are support.
Mad John has staked his run on staying in Iraq, he has said 100 years, Clinton has said 60 days, Osama has said ASAP.
I would like to see a raft of Conservative Senators counter balance Mad john though, but that is a long shot.
