“Conservatives may have to form a third party, ...”
Hey, there’s a brilliant idea! Let’s just hand the whole government over to the Democrats for good! That’ll teach ‘em!
Because socialism will be so much better if administered by someone with an (R) after their name, right?
When there ceases to be a difference between the parties or a benefit to voting Republican, then it is time for a third party. I'm not there yet, but your logic is doing nothing to keep me in line.
By the way, tell me which of the following areas I should pick McCain over Hillary on:
1. Supreme Court appointments.
2. Stopping illegal immigration.
3. Diminishing the federal governments control of education.
4. Personal liberties (like free speech).
5. Abortion.
I even doubt there would be much difference on the war or on total spending. McCain wants a lower deficit, but he’s more than happy to raise taxes to get there.
How about if Hillary just runs as a Republican? Should we all vote for her then, so as not to weaken the party?
