You’re not reliable because you hang around a particular political party urging it to advance your cause.
When, for whatever reason it cannot advance your cause to the extent you want it advanced, you bail. You quit.
You tell the party, “hey, this is where I get off. Good luck with that election!”
Why would any party even want to try to accommodate your views knowing that, even if the best efforts were made and circumstances were beyond the party’s control, if you didn’t like the result, you’d quit?
Not only quit, but actually undermine the party by, in essence, voting against its candidate?
Well, he DOES look better in a dress...
Then you don’t accept reality.
Oh well.
No way would I ever stay home on election day...I work to hard trying to encourage voting. My right to vote is a very precious freedom...
Again, if the election ends up being a LIBERAL RUN-OFF, I could care less. I do not vote for liberals, regardless of their Party.
The ‘PRICE’ of a Guiliani nomination is the loss of ‘conservative IDENTITY’ to the Republican Party. We then end up with a LIBERAL HEAVEN--two political parties, both ‘to the left’ of center. The difference between the parties then becomes a difference in degree only, and not identity. That ‘price’ is much, much too high.
Hillary will flood the government with liberals (as if there aren't enough already). A liberal like Rudy will also flood the govt bureaucracy with more of his liberal buddies. I won't be a part of either.
Exactly. And Election Day is not the time or place for protest. It’s time to do a job-—hiring a President / Commander in Chief.
And that’s a job I take seriously.
We have too many examples of folks in our side who decided to either stay home or vote third party just to “teach a lesson” to the GOP.
Among the results we can count:
- President Bubba Clinton
- Speaker Pelosi
- Majority Leader Reid
And now they seem happy to see the prospect of a President Hillary Rodman...and yet they claim that those of us who will vote for ANY GOP candidate in order to stop her, we’re the crazy ones.
Amazing.
Spot on.
Wrong. Gnight.
Umm, didn’t Jesus shed a little light on this when he rebuked the Pharisees and so on for their exaggerated sense of moral superiority?
Wasn’t pulling the ox out of the ditch on the Sabbath a lesson in balancing practical realities with spiritual realities?
Of course man must choose the lesser of two evils if doing so stops, or potentially, stops the greater evil. Doing otherwise would be morally repugnant.
I don't understand, as that is precisely what you defend.
Yes.
They fear Rudy more than Hillary. Or truly believe there’s no differance whatsoever.
Not me. I remember the ‘90s.
Well .. I don’t want to have to depend on the Supremes to do OUR JOB - WE NEED TO SHOW UP AT THE POLLS AND SEND THE CLINTONS PACKING.
They need to receive a resounding thumping at the polls in order for them to get the message .. WE DON’T WANT YOU ANYMORE - WE’VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR LYING, CHEATING, FRAUD, THEFT, ADULTRY, RAPE, EXTORTION, ETC.
OK, then find me a place where Christ did so.
Do your own research. You decide what the difference is.
Good luck.
I will vote for the Republican nominee,praying it won’t be Paul.
I always vote. If the GOP candidate is Giuliani, Huckabee and possibly Romney, I’ll vote third-party in the presidential race.
Thanks for the condescending civics lesson. If I need anymore enlightening squat I’ll let you know. I’ve earned my vote, mind your own business.
I would crawl over broken glass to vote for any one of the potential Republican candidates running against Hillary.
Yes, and I will vote for the Republican candidate in order to do my best to ensure that the Democrat candidate does not gain the White House.
Will you stay home if you don't like the Republican candidate?
That is the kind of thinking that put Bill Clinton in the White House in 1992 with far less than 50% support.
To quote Yogi Berra, it would be like deja vu all over again.
