A few minutes ago I was thinking he was a fairly smart guy. The topic was a tech bubble. I thought I should probably listen to him.

Then I tripped over his thoughts here, and I no longer consider the guy to be smart.

He’s a Democrat, trying to tell me what is wrong with the Republican party.

A DEMOCRAT!

He has remained in the Democrat party for six and a half years, while Obama has been president, and he addresses the problems that keep him from being a Republican?

Tell you what “SMART GUY”, we don’t have Islamic Traitors on our side. We’re not conforming to that. In essence, you have. No you’re not an Islamic Traitor, but you sure don’t mind remaining in the party led by one. You conformed. You bought in.

I read your comments with interest, because I don’t like the Republican party either. I have been temped to leave it for much less than you accept from Obama, but then it dawned on me.

You don’t have a problem with the party. You have a problem with Conservatives. It bothers you that we hold our party members to a certain standard.

What is that standard? That standard is the U. S. Constitution Mark. You have a problem with that?

Stay where you are. You’re in the right place. We don’t need you Mr. Smart Guy.

Duh!

Not sure what he means. I do not agree with any party or candidate on everything. One has to examine the issues that are important for you and decide which party and candidate are more closely aligned. That’s how it has always been and will always be.

He has got it backwards. The social issues NOT being addressed by the past two candidates kept the base HOME.

Without "the People" adhering to moral codes that stabilize society (Which natural law /nature's God dictates), "the People" will always follow the "champion of the people" that promises to subsidize poor decisions with other people's money.

Libertines' desires result in a larger central government
