The solution is to concentrate getting and keeping conservatives in the House and Senate.

Contrary to the GOP-E, winning the White House isn't the most important race. We won with Bush and got a liberal, we lost with Clinton, but a conservative majority on the Hill forced Clinton to govern conservatively, more conservatively than W.

A conservative majority on the Hill can get the RINOs on their side when battling a Democrat in the Oval Office. A liberal Republican in the Oval Office is just about assured of a majority on the Hill consisting of RINOs and Democrats to support whatever liberal thing he wants to do.

The important race is to control the Hill.

I really do agree with you. My own hopes rest with a conservative congress.

The judge appointee argument doesn’t sway me to support Romney because I don’t believe he can be trusted to appoint good judges.

My main concern is Obama’s executive orders. He’s proved that, if he can’t get it done through congress, he’ll get it done with the wave of a pen.

I also believe that Romney can be persuaded by a resolute congress and an aware public to sign off on a lot of the conservative agenda. Obama won’t give an inch.

My main concerns are the economy and security. Without those things, we have nothing.
