I have been a registered Republican since I voted for Ronald Reagan in 1980. Since then, I have voted straight Republican ticket, although sometimes I have had to “hold my nose”. Lately though, with all the RINO’s, turncoats, and synchophants, it is becoming more and more difficult to remain loyal to a “party” and be a true conservative. I feel like Ol’ Ronnie himself when he said “I didn’t leave the (democrat) Party, it left ME”
I HAVE to follow my heart and my brain on this. If a true conservative runs against a RINO, I MUST vote for the conservative.
You are not alone. I have been a member for a while. I can remember posters here years ago always saying hold your nose and vote GOP.
Things have changed. That won’t work anymore.
God bless the folks working hard for Doug Hoffman and for other conservatives such as Marco Rubio.
