Hey Bruce, thanks for the reply. I'm of the view that, with a Democratically held senate, a "moderate" is all the top Republicans could ever get through at this time. If we can retake the Senate and have ANY Republican in the White House, well, I think that's the only way we're going to get a decent hearing on those 3 issues.

Who are you supporting? Do you think a conservative (Hunter, Newt) can get elected in 2008?

Hi jonathanmo,

Thanks for the reply.

If we can retake the Senate and have ANY Republican in the White House [...]

"ANY" republican no longer works for me. Sorry, but Bush and his cronies have utterly destroyed my trust in the GOP. My support didn't dwindle, it left.

There is absolutely no way to square this border/immigration crap with America's best interests. From a security position alone it is not only inconceivable, but extremely dangerous.

That they are working against America's best interest is apparent- That they would shove it down our throats despite record objection shows their determination (or devotion) to their agenda.

I expect such things from Democrats who have gleefully been against American interests for a long time, but it is a new thing in the GOP- Their fear of losing the party base had always kept their big-business dreams at bay.

Obviously they feel they can now move with impunity- That they have marginalized their base enough, or that their base will remain loyal to the lesser of two evils.

I for one, will not remain loyal. This GOP is dangerous if it is not made to straighten up and fly right- Every bit as dangerous as the Democratic Left is.

Who are you supporting?

Hunter for the moment. I would vote for Gingrich, but I would rather see him in the party chair doing the plank-work he does so well.

Do you think a conservative (Hunter, Newt) can get elected in 2008?

No. But I think that will be because a true conservative will not be offered past the primary. We may have something that looks like a conservative... but I doubt even that.

-Bruce
