Based on his voting record, Kirk is a defacto Democrat. I don’t care what party label he tosses next to his name on the ballot, in reality electing him results in Harry Reid’s 61st vote. On every major issue conservatives care about — abortion, guns, traditional families, reducing government, cutting spending, the WOT, immigration, energy independence, etc., Kirk is on the wrong side. Moose, if Kirk is acceptable you might as well endorse Robert Byrd for the U.S. Senate because Byrd is probably better on major issues (immigration, cap-n-trade, etc.) than Kirk is. Kirk is so liberal than I located over a dozen card-carrying DEMOCRAT legislators in Illinois who got higher “conservative” ratings than Kirk last year.
More liberal than Democrats?
LOLOLOLOL.
That's really sad, if Freepers are willing to endorse a candidate who's more liberal than the Democrats around him, simply because of the letter following the candidate's name.
I understand your point, I do, and I have two questions for you. Would you rather Barbara Boxer be re-elected in 2010 because her Repub opponent is a moderate and not a conservative? Could you support a RINO like Tom Campbell if he could defeat her? By the way, I checked out Dr. Eric Wallace’s campaign site, I was impressed, he could be a powerful voice against Obamacare. Is his fundraising going well? How is he doing in the primary polls to date?
