Freepers Openly Supporting Liberal Democrats - Alison Lundergan Grimes

I never thought I would see the day when there were participants in this forum openly advocating voting for a liberal Democrat.

Yet that is what many are doing in advocating Kentuckians vote for Alison Lundergan Grimes.

This makes no sense unless one is a liberal or leftist anti-American or are unable to move beyond emotion and irrationality or a nihilist mind set that lets anger, fear, lack of faith and hatred dominate one's logical faculties.

Alison Lundergan Grimes was born in 1978. That's the year I graduated High school. Many here are older than I, and in politics, at 53 I am not all that old.

This liberal Democrat leftist, Alison Lundergan Grimes, is 36 years old. She is a baby in politics.

If she wins this seat now she will be in the Senate for 40 years.

By contrast, McConnell is an old man who will be gone after this term.

Those supporting the liberal Democrat leftist, Alison Lundergan Grimes, for Senate are going to simply make possible another Feinstein, or Boxer or any such left wing corrupt Marxist-thinking Senator with a Seat-For-Life.

Setting up a permanent seat in the Senate for a liberal leftist Democrat in a state where it is possible to avoid this plague, is not a good idea.

It may feel good emotionally to see the reprehensible, Mitch-I-want-to-punch-the-Tea-Party-in-the-nose McConnell lose, but the negative consequences are greater than the fleeting enjoyment of seeing McConnell lose.

-- The Buckley rule is RINO insurance ... --

What the RINOs claim is the Buckley Rule, is not the Buckley Rule. It is a rule they made up to justify their perfidy, then misleadingly assign to Buckley.

What supporting "the rightwardmost viable candidate" meant in WFB's lexicon.

How does one score a vote for Arlen Specter?

[trisham]

Nice to see you. :)

[no-to-illegals]

if I and Better Half do not see you in October we will be disappoint, Trisham.

I had a chance to vote for old magic bullet Specter when he claimed to be a Republican and passed.

[no-to-illegals]

please do not disappoint me and Better Half come October, Trisham. Truly want to meet you and yours for the remembering. Please?

[no-to-illegals]

Have link and will travel it to you, if have not decided but I bet you have the link. You are not required to work are ya?

[trisham]

Are you referring to the 9th Annual Texas Cowboy Memorial Shoot?

I wish I could be there, but I can’t. The cottages are lovely!

[no-to-illegals]

yes, my feelings and Better Half’s feelings are hurt .... We truly want you to be there ... Please?

[Political Junkie Too]

The bottom line is this: it depends on the margin in the Senate.

Remember when Scott Brown said that he would be the 40th vote to block Obamacare? That mattered.

If we seriously think that the Senate would go 50-50 if McConnell loses, that would matter too.

But if the Senate goes 54-46, then I can live with 53-47 if means a Senate without Mitch McConnell.

I'll even take 52-48. 51-49 gets into dangerous territory because of the Jeffords flip.

So, what's your prediction of the GOP margin in the Senate?

[trisham]

:) I’m looking forward to hearing all about it.

[ifinnegan]

I don’t know.

I figure they have it and we can not count on getting it back.

Never count your chickens before they hatch.

[no-to-illegals]

no you and your will be :{ (frowns) ... HUGS Trisham for the start up of the FReepaThon though.

[no-to-illegals]

can we count eggs?

[ifinnegan]

Can you tell the fertilized ones?

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Rather a DEM than a wimpy pathetic RINO. So sorry that makes you so sad. Maybe you need a hug from Cantor. I hear he’s got free time now.

[OneWingedShark]

They push conservatives to be cynical, angered, despondent and thinking there is no difference between parties.

There is no real difference between the parties — or are you really going to tell me that the [in]action on Fast & Furious, the NSA's domestic spying, the IRS's political targeting, etc are all being addressed by the GOP? No, the results we're seeing (nothing substantial) are exactly what they [both D and R] want.

Look at border security, the national debt, any Republican-party plank and you'll see places where the actions do not match words.

[Jabba the Nutt]

Vote for the old guy, he’ll die off quicker. Both are evil, don’t vote for evil.

[trisham]

Thanks, no to illegals. :)
