Yeah, I got it. You’re willing to cast aside 140,000 plus soldiers fighting for your right to act like a spoiled child who didn’t get the exact toy he wanted for Christmas. As for me, I won’t abandon them by throwing a vote away, or by not voting at all. But, you do what your consciense tells you to do.

NO guilt trip here.

No name calling will change my PRINICPLES that YOU have decided to abandon. There comes a time, when PRINICPLE must be stood by. Now is that time. We’ve held our nose before as we ditifully voted for RHINO’S, Dole another “entitled” canidate, Bush Sr., Bush Jr. etc.. All this has accomplished is having MORE RHINO’s come along as candidates. It’s time to make a stand on PRINCIPLE - the “big tent” was always a joke. We don’t want to be part of YOUR “big tent”.

Tough love is called for - NOT voting for more RHINO’s and sending the GOP a MESSAGE. If they don’t get it, then it’s time to register as an Independent. The ONLY reason we still remian registered as Republicans is because in our state you must be registered to vote for the party. Otherwise we would have registered as Independents a long time ago. We were hoping to influence the primary.

Eventually, even you may get to the point where

ENOUGH is ENOUGH!

After Carter, people were thrilled to vote for a REAL REPUBLICAN. I suspect the same witll be true again when the Demoncrats, McCain included ... when one of the gets the WH. Prinoiples must come in to play - even in your life. It has in ours.
