Welcome to the growing number of Conservative Independents.

So tell me, who are you going to vote for then? I don't mean this in the snide "Oh yeah? Well where they gonna go?" sense. There is no other credible vehicle for the conservative movement. Sorry, but the Constitution Party, American Independent Party, etc. etc. won't hack it. the answer is not to leave the Party, but to conquer the Party. Your FReepsite says that anything that advances conservatism is a good thing. So, how does not voting for conservative GOP candidates, thereby allowing the Dem to win, advance conservatism?

Here is what Cantor should have said:

“My constitutents sent me to Congress to support the President when I feel that his legislation will advance the cause of the American people and oppose him when it does not. As to the success or failure of the Obama Presidency I will leave that up to history decide.

You read WAY too much into my very short comment. I've never been a Republican, but I normally vote for the Republican Party. I don't think of it as the only vehicle by which to advance Conservatism. I don't believe any political party can advance Conservatism as well as the People.
