This time, that same old tired argument that you have to vote for a Republican even if (R-Hell) is after his name, will fall upon the deaf ears of millions of Conservatives in November, if it turns out that way.

They are already cranking up that machine here on FR. They did four and eight years ago.

Many people listened.

They don't want "Son of G.W. Bush Compassionate Conservatism", nor their vote going to affirm such lamebrain policies, so I predict this scare tactic will be dismissed on its face--if a RINO is shoved in our faces for November.

I don’t relish the thought of seeing a party humiliated, that I have supported for thirty-eight years. It really goes against the grain.

You know what, I have wondered for years how there could still be a registered democrat seeing what that party supports these days. And then it hit me. How can I say that, if I’m going to remain registered as a Republican and vote for people who implement those same policies on my side?

I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t tell the party to take a hike.

That medication addition to Medi-Care was such a lame idea. Bush was Lyndon Banes Johnson on the day he signed that thing. And we’ll be paying for that long after our grand-kids bite the dust.

Folks just don’t get it. We, the republican party, are moving this nation to the left. What is so damned hard to understand about that?

BTW, I agree. Using the old (R) ploy isn’t going to work this time. And I think the donations to the RP are beginning to die off. I saw some figures a while back, and they didn’t look good.

I really hate like hell thinking in terms like this, but if the RP can’t get the job done, then it’s time it die off and we get a real conservative party.

If a liberal Republican gets the nomination, nothing would suit me more than seeing that person get about 50 million less votes than the party got in 2004.

We are the heart and soul of the RP. Okay, perhaps we aren’t. If we aren’t, they don’t need us anyway.

As it should be.
