I don’t dislike Thompson, but if that happens, the way this is playing out, I will be saying to them “how does it feel?” No sympathy at all. I will be outraged inwardly just as I am for Hunter though. And we know it's coming, they will at least try.

It surely is coming. One way to ensure a Democrat victory in the Presidential election is to promote the most liberal of primary candidates on the Republican side. This will drive the conservatives away from the ballot boxes in November. That is exactly what the press has been doing, and the comments on FreeRepublic show that it is indeed working. There are so many people on this forum willing to shed their beliefs for the god of electability, but theirs is a false hope. Come November there will be angry debates here on FreeRepublic over why conservatives won't vote for the liberal Republican candidate. The people screaming the loudest will the very same people who are now pushing those liberal candidates down our throats.

As is often said here, "elections have consequences", and that includes primaries. Promote a liberal in the primaries today, and we will elect a liberal in November. What will make them angry is that it won't be 'their' liberal who gets elected.
