Don’t worry about the hypothetical general election matchup too much, Dog Gone, and for God’s sakes we need you here, you are a good one! COncentrate on getting a good conservative that we can get elected, and we’ll worry about the hypothetical later when we know what the world has given us as a backdrop for the election, and who we are up against.
We have almost a year to get a nominee chosen. No need to worry about the hypothetical matchup if we fail in the primaries.
That's how I'd like to feel about it, but I don't know how many thousand posts have been made on this thread regarding people's intentions if the "wrong" candidate wins the nomination. I'm not sure I'm being more hypothetical than they are and trying to extrapolate the consequences of that, not to the election, but to this forum.
I'm not even really worried about the election yet. I haven't heard many candidates. I barely know who Jim Gilmore is. We haven't had the first debate, and you're right, the election is far off.
But we're slashing and killing and threatening our own, proclaiming what we'll do next year.
So yeah, maybe I'm thinking about what happens if those threats are fulfilled. I wondered if anyone else had similar concerns.
Maybe it's best that I stay away from threads like this, because they make me incredibly uncomfortable. I don't like what's going on at FR right now at all.
