Conservatives are often disappointed when Republicans tell us one thing at home when they’re running for office and do quite the opposite as soon as they cross the Potomac.
It doesn’t take a long memory to remember that Republicans campaigned on “repealing Obamacare.” These Republicans came home to campaign and loudly proclaimed: “Give us a Republican House!”
Conservatives stepped up and made it so.
But the GOP candidates came back and pleaded: “No, we can’t repeal Obamacare unless you give us a Republican Senate.”
So, conservative activists gave Republicans the Senate.
To which the Republican Congress opined, “We’re close, this close to repealing Obamacare. Just give us the House, the Senate, and the White House and we will repeal Obamacare!”
We all know how that turned out. Voters gave Republicans both Houses of Congress and the Presidency and Republicans reneged and we live with Obamacare to this day.
Likewise, Republicans came home and said: “Vote Republican! The Democrats spend too much and borrow too much!”
And conservatives gave Republicans another shot. Because, as conservatives, we know Democrats don’t care about the debt but we continue to hope Republicans do.
So, I have “shocking” news for conservatives, big-government Republicans are really secretly tied at the hip to spendthrift Democrats. The Republicans differ only in where they wish to spend the money

I think you’re right but definitely a lot of cheating going on in a few key states.
GA (Senate) was a difficult one. They knowingly elected a Communist yes-man when Biden and Schumer were basically on the ballot.
I think that one stunk.
PA (Senate) as well where the Dem candidate can barely function due to a stroke.
Something not right (IMO)....
Only the state level from now on.
“My voting days are over.”
There’s always the roof tops.

They just want their fair share of the loot.
The republican vs. democrat fights are just an act for the voters, no more real than WWE wrestling. At the end of the day they’re yukking it up at the same cocktail parties in D.C. and collecting their checks from the same multi-billionaire donors.

That Omnibus is vile.

Bump. Agree 100%.
Lol. It’s been that way for a long time.
To not vote helps The Left, of both major U.S. political parties, win elections, too!
Heard that H Walker actually won the primary but the usual monkey business flipped votes to Warnock. How long are we going put up with this.
