I’m done with this party and they will never get a dime from me again.

This is clearly and obviously not a conservative party. Huckabee is right...the Reagan revolution is dead.

“Huckabee is right...the Reagan revolution is dead.”

With all due respect, I think Huckabee missed the Reagan revolution.

I could NOT agree with you more. It’s horrifying to think there are so many republicans that would vote for this liberal. They are going to drag us all into the gutter of liberalism and I will positively NEVER be a part of allowing that to happen. The GOP can kiss my 30 year support goodbye as well.

“This is clearly and obviously not a conservative party. Huckabee is right...the Reagan revolution is dead.”

Sure looks that way. It has amazed me recently how people I’ve held in high esteem within the conservative movement have apparently abandoned their core principles for squishy liberal ideas which are convenient for them. This is true of politicians, media types, and political talking heads as well.
An example: Tonight I was watching Larry Kudlow’s show and he has Dick Armey and Steven Moore on as guests along with two Democrat strategists. Kudlow started by asking Armey and Moore to explain John McCain’s decision to vote against the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts. Armey went first and ended up sounded like Obama. It got so bad that one of the Dems suggested that Armey change parties because with those ideas he’d fit right in.
Amazing, but not as amazing as Mr. Moore’s response to the same question. Mr. Moore defended McCain by claiming that McCain really was a supply sider but voted against the tax cuts “out of spite” for what happened to him during the 2000 campaign. And that, according to Mr.Moore, is why we SHOULD vote for him, you see. McCain’s really a supply sider. Okay, but he’s also a nasty, vindictive, politician caught up in his reach for power. And that’s why I SHOULD vote for him?!
I must be on Mars. Any conservative martians around here?

You may give up on the party but please don’t give up on individual candidates. There are still many good Republican candidates. Please consider financially helping good conservative Republican candidates. The worst thing we can do is to just walk away.

Remember Valley Forge, what if they just walked away?

National defense is a good enough reason to hold my nose and vote R with McCain, maybe. I even think Hillary might in the end be more secure than Obama on national defense. That said, I hope Romney is the man and I am not sold on him totally.We have to deal with the Islamic terror.
