Ben Shapiro says - "McCain is better than Hillary Clinton. He's better than Barack Obama."

We say NOT. McCain is a turd who won't flush. The entire article is full of fear-mongering, and as I've been telling people, we will NOT be driven by fear.

You have spoken well. The GOP can suck it up and deal with it. I believe they made a grave miscalculation this time around. I believe they seriously misjudged the reaction of enough people to throw the elections into a tailspin for them.

I don't think they can recover from it now. It would take too much time to rebuild trust alone.

But as it stands, we're playing a giant game of "chicken" with the GOP, as they are with us. They're standing their ground, spewing crap like what Ben Shapiro writes and hoping we'll give in. But we stand equally as solid and look them back in the eye, unwilling to change, and warning of the results. Their shrieking becomes louder and more shrill as time goes on, but we don't budge...nor will we budge... and so we all continue headlong into the train wreck that is approaching.

The GOP abandoned me. I didn't abandon them. They moved farther to the left...not me. They ignored us for 4 years with regards to our attempted communications of our opinions on illegal immigration. I know it's bad timing, but now it's our turn to ignore them for at least 4 years. It's mildly amusing that they should solidly ignore us for four years, but all of the sudden they want to open "dialog" to petition for our support and try to convince us that Juan McPain is an old school conservative.

For me to tell them to kiss my ass just doesn't adequately express my contempt for them right now. But it's a good start! :-)

Couldn’t agree more. Good points.
