It is my biggest regret as a Freeper that I opposed Patrick Buchanan’s candidacy in 2000. It was doomed anyway, of course, but it was quite possibly the last time for a conservative to support a major politician in earnest.

My wife, to her credit, voted for Buchanan that year.

PJB is wrong about some things. He is right about a great many more. Too bad such men are unelectable under our republican system of government.

We are so boned.

But at least you know better now. The tragedy is that so many do not.

I did support Pat in 2000. It was before he went bonkers to the point that I could no longer support him.

He had some problems in 2000, but I could see where we were headed and I wanted to avoid it. Well we didn’t avoid it. We settled for Bush and here we are.

I have my problems with Buchanan. I know it wouldn’t have been all upside. It sure hasn’t been all upside with Bush either.

Well, here we are. Stuck in this mess.

I appreciate your comments. IMO, the last Conservative I vote for was Reagan.
