Ralph-just move your operation to Calif. We are the big enchilada.

Hard to vote for McCain, when he himself was campaigning for Obama.

Elections are to vote for representatives; ie someone that represents your values.
It is not an excuse to vote for the lesser of two evils. Nor, is it a reason to vote for someone that trashes your values and completely thumbs their nose at you.
Myth, the GOP-E picked you; let's see if their votes are enough to elect you.
May I suggest he start in Missouri? Todd Akin can use all the help he can get from anyone...
Wasn’t ol’ Ralph involved in some scandal a few years back, or am I mistaken?
As for all these “grass roots” groups springing up, they are as welcome as weeds. Let me guess.. Ralph’s group will send out URGENT emails asking you to sign some petition and send a pre-written email to your senators and representative. Oh, and by the way, please send a generous donation to support the vital work the group does.
I’ve had it. All these various think tanks and issue organizations are a scam. They are ticks that live off donations and don’t accomplish anything. A pox on them all!
