Why is Mr. Krauthammer’s opinion somehow more valid than the millions of conservative voters who are trying to change this country? He’s a pundit, a COMMENTATOR. I guess we should just bow down to his infinite wisdom, eh? Well, I don’t agree, and I’m not willing to elect more moderates like Jeffords and Specter simply because the Roves and Krauthammers of this world tell me to.

Oh, stop your sniveling. Nobody is requiring you to blindly agree with Krauthammer.

The thing about Krauthammer, though, is that writes like an adult, and he almost always provides the rationale for his opinions.

By comparison, the responses on this thread -- yours included -- are childish and emotional.

Our country needs adults who act and argue like adults. There are a lot of FReepers who just need to grow up.

Well, I obviously don’t agree. I’m not the one who wrote the article. Krauthammer did. If anything comes across as childish and emotional, it’s Krauthammer’s call for Sarah Palin and Jim DeMint to “should go to Delaware now and get her elected to the Senate.” Why? Because THEY endorsed her.

I liken Krauthammer to the kid who takes HIS ball home the instant the neighborhood game doesn’t go how HE wants.

As for giving an opinion without providing a rationale, you should reread my posts. My first post on this thread explained that #1 I don’t agree that O’Donnell is unelectable (she did, in fact, beat the so-called more electable candidate), and #2 Even if she fails, a Republican win with a liberal like Castle has historically resulted in failure, i.e. we get a Republican majority but fail to enact the conservative agenda.

With all due respect, wake up and smell the roses. Conservatives are fed up for good cause, and we aren’t inclined to listen to the same old pundits who tell us to repeat the failures of the past. Let’s try nominating conservatives for a change and see what happens. OK?
