Actually, Conley is more of a Libertarian Democrat than a Blue Dog Democrat as its currently difined.

While it’s important to elect as many Republican Senators as possible this year, this race is the exception to that rule.

I still think that we should be electing Republicans into both the House and Senate. Some people might feel that they should “punish” Republicans. That’s all good, but we have seen what the outcome of such a move has been, with the current Democrat-controlled House. Do we really want to give more power to that idiot Reid and Pelosi? We have to get conservatives in from the ground level, from the primaries. For all we say about “Blue Dog” democrats, its the liberals that rule that party. They will never give up their power.
If we want conservative in there, we get them in from the primaries.

And if he’s elected, you won’t be able to tell him from Chuck Schumer.

Don’t be fooled...

Sorry. I tried being a conservative Democrat as a young man 15 years ago. On one of the most conservative college campuses in the nation. There's no room for such thought in that party. Further, as long as that guy would support his own party leadership in the Senate then he's no good as a conservative.

He's in the wrong party or he's lying through his teeth to get elected.

Hopefully President McCain will stick Pandsey someplace where he can’t get in trouble and Gov. Sanford will be able to appoint a REAL conservative to work along side Jim DeMint.

I will tell you there is something not quite right with Graham. I did some searching around to see if anyone else thought what I thought and this is what I found...

Is Lindsey Graham gay?
