These are the major reasons I will not vote for "Dem Lite". You'll vote for Dem heavy instead. Thanks. The DAmnocrat party thanks you for every non-Republican vote, every Libertarian vote, every Ross Perot vote, etc., and for not voting as well.

BTW, can you name a "perfect" conservative candidate for whom you will vote? That could actually get elected?

MA, I agree with you. I regretfully admit I made that mistake back in 1992 when I voted for Perot. I was part of the 18 percent that put Clinton in office, I am ashamed to say. I have learned my lesson, at a terrible cost. I also believe that what poet states is just idiotic.

One thing I have learned over the years, is that no matter how perfect the conservative may be, once in office he or she will have to work with imperfect people. I got into an argument with a conservative some years back when talking about our federal government. We were arguing about getting the conservative message out. He kept on saying that we - the repubs - were in control of the Congress. I kept saying, if we are in control of the purse strings, how come my taxes still keep going up? With that in mind, there should be no way that the Dems should stop anything Bush wants done. They do it because Repubs are abetting them. So, even the perfect conservative has to deal with turncoats.

Save your breath, POET is a left coast democrat, a Bush and America hater.
