The GOP decided I was irrelevant when they decided to rig the primaries for Rudy. Another Rhino-McCain won. They didn’t care about the conservative vote-how much more irrelevant can conservatives become? The GOP decided we were not relevant. Now, they must learn that they can not win without conservative votes. The GOP was counting on Hillary hatred to ensure that marginalized conservatives voted for the RHINO of choice. Now it appears Obama will be the candidate, they are trying to name call, shame conservatives into voting for an unacceptable candidate-McCain. Sorry, I am not holding my nose and voting for McCain period.

Man, if you think the GOP “decided to rig the primaries for Rudy,” I’ve got a bridge in the Mojave for you.

Exactly how were the primaries rigged for Rudy or McCain?

Please, I sincerely want to learn your evidence for this assertion. HOW was this done?

“The GOP decided I was irrelevant when they decided to rig the primaries for Rudy. Another Rhino-McCain won.”

I just do not see how the GOP rigged the primaries. Seems to me the MSM had more influence in pushing various candidates through more coverage. When it gets down to the line, it is the votes that count. We conservatives had too many “favorites” and did not rally behind one candidate enough to make it happen. There are still many who are supporting Huckabee but seems many are doing so only to push for a brokered convention. Now it appears that even with a brokered convention the nominee will be McCain.

Perhaps not voting for McCain will send a message to the GOP, but it will also send Obama or Hillary to the White House. I rather skip sending any message to the GOP! I WILL hold my nose and vote for McCain in November and will consider my vote a vote AGAINST Obama or Hillary.
