Conservativism among the people is far from doomed, emotional posters or not.

Conservatism as a Washington DC political movement is on the ropes for sure, but what will save it will be determined by the actions of the Republican leadership in Washington.

It wasn't a bunch of misinformed voters who cost the Republicans the House and Senate... It was the absurd political positions taken by Rep. politicos. When a Republican takes the same positions as a democrat on a majority of the issues, it's time for him or her to go. THAT is what defeats conservativism on the governmental level.

The democrat party will lie, cheat, steal, and beg to get your vote for two reasons: 1)Their only concern is the expansion of power, and; 2) Democrat voters, especially liberals, don't vote with their minds or consciences... they vote to maintain or expand the power base of democrats and government in general. Democrats and their voters care most for what is best for their party, and little for what is best for America.

Conservative voters, on the other hand, DO vote their minds and consciences. They are generally less politically active but better politically informed. They have a better understanding of the workings of government and the Constitution. They care about the future of their country FIRST, and the well-being of their party second. Therefore, when their candidates behave exactly as the opposing team does, many believe it is time to start fresh, rather than just voting like a bunch of democrats.

You just made my point.

"The democrat party will lie, cheat, steal, and beg to get your vote for two reasons: 1)Their only concern is the expansion of power, and; 2) Democrat voters, especially liberals, don't vote with their minds or consciences... they vote to maintain or expand the power base of democrats and government in general. Democrats and their voters care most for what is best for their party, and little for what is best for America."

Knowing this, there is no excuse for voting to allow Democrats to gain the power to do what YOU KNOW they will do, so that you can sooth your own mind by punishing a RINO. It is simply the most stupid, selfish and egotistical expression to vote out a Republican, RINO or not, and allow Democrats to take over, regardles of your feelings, because you have a solution, called a PRIMARY!

You just proved that there is NO REASONING behind what some of you are doing, do the detriment of your own agenda. It is ALL ABOUT YOU, not Conservatism, not the defeat of Liberals, you just want some payback.

IT IS NUTS!

I rest my case.
