Unlike those who think that when you vote for a liberal with an 'R' by its name, you'll magically get a politician who'll act like a conservative, right?

Riiiiiiiiiiight.


Those that protest voted or sat home that knew better were hardly more than children regarding the maturity of their mind. If they had an iota of common sense they would attempt to make changes for the Republican candidate in the primary. Who ever that Republican is after the Primary, that is better the the Communist Democrats that would be elected.

Anyone not figuring this out after the lessons of Ross Perot would be in possession of an intellect belonging to the lower 10% of mankind, if even that.

Khamenei calls US elections a victory for Iran

He also calls a murderous, incestuous, insane pedophile 'God'.

That is just bullcrap. At every primary, the same people who insist that we should "hold our noses" and vote for liberals are precisely the same ones who screech that conservatives are "unelectable" and torpedo any and all candidates who don't toe their liberal tripe.

So spare me that tired, lame rhetoric. Ain't nobody but the RINO-coddlers buying it anymore.

I'd like to know if all this crowing by our avowed enemies is giving any of the "swing voters" who went Dem any pause. We told them this would happen.

Quite the opposite. The Dems will take this as "See, the bad guys really aren't bad guys after all, they're all really on our side".

...'cause we all know that when you vote for a liberal when he's got an 'R' by his name, once elected he magically turns into a pro-American politician who'll always support conservative values and causes! Yeah...in Stupid RINO World, maybe...but not on this planet.

I'd rather have a couple of RINO's in Congress being balanced out by true Republican/Conservatives than give control of Congress to the Democrats who are all liberals in one form or the other, and most definitely heavily populated with far-left liberals. When one uses some commonsense, it's really not difficult to understand. :)

Damn it sucks being right all the time. Why are all of America's enemies celebrating the election of the Democrats? Could it be because they feel they'll fare better under Democratic governance?? Here's what you did America! You made America's enemies glad and gave them great comfort.

We may not have won, but we were right and Iran and AL Qaeda's remarks today are vindication for what we've been saying all along about how Democrats have emboldened our enemies. It really sucks being right all the time.

And he thinks Americans will actually listen to him? What a wacko! Most Americans probably do not even know who he is.

That's the problem. RINOs don't complement conservatives; they replace them. So you never wind up with having a couple of RINOs balancing out conservatives. You wind up with more RINOs and fewer conservatives which is always a net gain for the Dhimmicrats.

So what you describe is not reality. Never has, never will be. We have got to purge the liberals from this party and make them smell the stink of their own brethren among the Dhimmicrats. Maybe then they'll get over their idiot notions that being liberal is the way to go.

People who aren't big enough to accept that voting (like life itself) often requires choosing between bad and worse, maybe are better suited to live in a nation where they can't vote -- because this is God's truth:

NO ONE WILL EVER LIVE IN A SOCIETY WHERE ANY CANDIDATE REPRESENTS AGREEMENT ON EVERY ISSUE.

Conservative Republicans can vote for the less-than-great Rino and risk the bad, or refrain from voting, put the hard-left in charge, and ensure the worst.

They can whine and deny it all they want, but that doesn't change the truth of it. Nor does it change the truth that people of this mindset can never be satisfied, and are doomed to foment strife and failure.

Citizens of each state need to encourage Republican/Conservatives to run for public office, then get them on the ticket and go out and campaign hard for them. It starts there.

However, when election day comes and your choice is between a Republican (who leans a bit to the left, but still shares many of our conservative beliefs) and a Democrat who's political party IS the left and ULTRA-left liberals, who are you going to vote for?

When one's choice ends up being the lesser of two evils, I find it wise to choose the lesser of the two. Don't you?

So good of you to notice that. Because NO ONE HAS DEMANDED THAT. Just don't expect us to vote for liberal clowns who are pro-abortion, anti-Second Amendment and pro-gay-marriage just because they have an 'R' by their name. Duh?

Maybe it's okay with you for your side to be "less evil." Me, I only support the good guys. And baby, RINOs ain't them.

Surely you understood my point better than your comment implies. If you only support the "good guys", then I'm sure you voted for Republicans and weren't one of those who helped the Democrats take control of the House and Senate. Especially knowing what is at stake in the WOT, which includes Iraq.

I like lists. I like to organize lists into priorities. Knowing how the Democrats feel about the WOT, the war in Iraq, and our homeland security, it wasn't difficult to come to a decision on which political party to vote for. None of the social and political issues we face today are as important as the WOT and Homeland Security.

Hard work is bullcr@p to those who expect things handed to them.
If there is no conservative winning the primary, you best ask yourself what you can do better locally to get the support needed, not sabotage the Republican party in favor of the communist Democrats.
As I said, those who stayed home or sabotaged Republicans were probably have the attention span of 5 year olds and very lower end of the scale intelligence.
Anyone who didn't already learn the lessons of Ross Perot in getting you Clintons have to practically be retarded in my opinion at this point.

No change is easy. If they aren't getting the primary people they need to pass, work harder or find them better candidates, but to enable Democrats is like giving your family AIDS on purpose, though the terrorist appreciate it.

Tell that to uber-libs like Santorum and JD Hayworth. Are you actually pleased the Dems now run the house and the Senate? Khamenei sure is. Do you share his opinion?
