I don't believe in open primaries. If you want to nominate a Party candidate, join the frickin' Party. If a candidate can't win without crossovers, then he is a piss-poor representative of the Party.

Amen to that.

Why are you so hung up on who Rats Dawg voted for....its none of your business who anyone votes for.....people don’t need to get your permission.

who are you the thread nanny?

You folks are missing the point but I am really witnessing a dumb down!

must be generation X-Y-Z who are so compartmentalized many have no clue about strategy or how to connect the dots!

“While I did not get shot down, I did serve during Viet Nam. I did as much as McCain did and I do not in any way consider myself a hero.”

First of all, You ARE a hero! I understand your humility prevents you from bragging, but you are.

I was formerly active duty Army Infantry but I never served in combat. When live rounds are coming down range it takes “great courage” to continue to do your job. Both you and McCain deserve respect. Thats all Im saying.

Everything else, about McCain is fair game (and Lord knows completely accurate), but maybe there are certain things we shouldnt say about those who put themselves under fire, for their country.

If you were quoting someone else you might want to attribute it to them, especially if you get upset when people disagree with the quote. Just a thought.

I tried to answer an inquiry you had!

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1954187/replies?c=165

You are too thin skin all I was doing was pointing out the fact that Levin did not hold the views towards Mitt that so many here harp on!

Showing a different between Mark attitude and others here is not frothing!

It was not met as an attract, but more about a clarification.

For some reason you always choose to be an unpleasant lady!

I swear alway you have to do is see someone who is for Mitt and you get irritated!

Will the large mohammedan communities go for "Hillary" or "uncommitted"?

If the mohammedans view Barack as an apostate I would expect these communities to heavily support his opponent Hillary.

If they view him as a stealth mohammedan I would expect these communities to vote "uncommitted" or "Ron Paul" to avoid hurting his chances.

If you were merely quoting, then I apologize. It sounded more like shaming to me, but things can get misinterpreted on the internet.

I have read many of your posts over the last couple of months, and they always seemed even handed and fair, that is why I specifically said it was not directed entirely at you (your were just the latest, when I read when I finally spoke up).

I am over all pretty happy about tonights results, although I don't think it will sink McCain as much as others seem to, I am admittedly a Rudy supporter, so tonights results keeps him in it!

Anyways, I do like and respect Mitt so Good For Him, he had a great night (if the numbers hold), and as we have all said, the race is still wide open.

Again, no hard feelings, I just wanted to vent a little bit about voting our conscience during the primaries, because that is what I plan to do, and I am sure, given my chosen candidate, I will get flack for it.

I have a friend from Michigan who just moved to Illinois. He said no way can their be another Republican President. Has to be a Dem to fix things. He just moved away from Michigan to get away from the leftist Governor, but he wants a Dem in the White House.

This is what you shrieked “He is not against Mitt at all like you folks keep harping!”

I am not one of these “folks”.

I would consider calling FRed and Jeri horrible names like you do to be unpleasant.

I am by no means a Fred supporter, and many here will be surprised at my sticking up for his fans, but let the voters vote their conscience! Don't shame them into thinking that what they did was wrong.

I'm with you. Enough of this. Everybody should vote for whoever they are most comfortable with. All this strategy BS is BS
