We are no longer voting for a candidate...the primaries are over.

So what? I tend to vote Republican because I'm a conservative. But that has always been because the Republicans have generally been a party that cared about the issues that conservatives care about.

The republican party doesn't own my vote. They have, in the past, earned it. That has ended. Not on my end, on their end.

You got your candidate nominated. Now go get him elected. I fail to see what my vote has to do with it.

Your candidate has been quite clear that my ideas and my vote are not wanted.

I'm okay with that.

Get it?

I guess your strong suit is not reading comprehension.

As I told you, he was not my first or second choice and I did not vote for him - therefore, I did not get my candidate nominated.

But the voters got him nominated and he is the GOP candidate.

But now, we aren't voting for one man, we are voting for our country and our freedoms.

So you STILL don't "get it"

Have a nice life - well, hopefully, you'll have the chance to

how did they earn it in the past? with bush? Dennis Hastert? The GOP has totally screwed all the way down and mccain is just the tip of the iceberg.

The GOP are still screwing up. Still pushing for pork and earmarks. Still getting into scandals. I don’t know if mccain will win or not but the rest of the republicans will definitely lose because they don’t deserve conservative support either.
