While I am generally on your side of this argument about electing republicans in liberal states, I think some understanding for harder line conservatives is in order.
People like Scott Brown, whatever the realities of Mass. or NH politics, are just wrong on the issues. And there is a deeper problem because the GOP establishment probably is closer to a Scott Brown cave in, than to a Ted Cruz stand up for what’s right.
However, I would still try to get Brown elected in NH so Harry Reid is not Senate majority leader and so that Ted Cruz can be part of the majority party. I see the Obama/ Reid/ Pelosi threat to America as that serious.
Romney would be a God send versus the destruction we are seeing. This world is heading for a conflagration and some things trump even conservative principles - I am talking about if we are all dead or dying in a radioactive wasteland. That is where I firmly believe Obama and his ilk are taking us.
Or at least we are on the doorstep of one party corrupt rule and Third Worldism.
OK,let's do a quick review.I don't know where you're from,so I'll make it general in nature.
"Americans For Democratic Action" is a large,well known and "respected" (by the usual suspects) Maoist organization.One of the things they do,every year,is rate every member of Congress regarding their votes on what they see as important issues.Here's a rundown of their findings on New England's 12 Senators for 2012 (the most recent year that they've rated).Remember,a score of 100% means "perfect" for them...meaning a perfect Maoist and 0% means,to them,"filthy knuckle dragging racist who should have been aborted".
Brown (R-MA) 50%**********Lieberman (Rat-CT) 80%
Ayotte (R-NH) 10%**********Leahy (Rat-VT) 100%
Collins(R-ME) 50%**********Shaheen (Rat-NH) 95%
Snowe (R-ME) 50%**********Sanders (Rat-VT) 100%
***************************Kerry (Rat-MA 95%
***************************Blumenthal (Rat-CT) 90%
***************************Reed (Rat-RI) 90%
***************************Whitehouse (Rat-RI) 90%
When forced to choose between 50% and 100% (or even 80%) I'll take 50%.Of course many here (including you,perhaps?) will take 100% in the same situation because,damn it,I WANT RONALD REAGAN...and if I can't have Reagan I'll settle for Obama (or Dirty Harry).
