I'm talking political strategy and your keep hiding behind your interpretation of "morals".

To me, morals are far more important than political strategy. Your god is the republican party and you will do whatever is necessary to maintain their position of power. Our country was built on morals, not political strategy. I know that is not important to you but it is to me. Cheating is not okay just because you don't get caught, and the ends don't justify the means, and breaking your word is not acceptable even if it means more votes for the party. This country is going to hell in a handbasket because people like you who don't and won't stand on principle. Your sole objective is to win. Winning for the sake of winning is not the way I want to live. You keep your party, I'll keep my principles.

Morals and politics are mutually exclusive only in your mind. In the real world, they don't have to be.
Your god is the republican party and you will do whatever is necessary to maintain their position of power.
You have a god complex and it's going to bite you in the butt sooner or later.

Wrong again. Politics and political parties have been part of this country from day one.
I know that is not important to you but it is to me.
Your priorities are one-sided and unbalanced.
Cheating is not okay just because you don't get caught, and the ends don't justify the means, and breaking your word is not acceptable even if it means more votes for the party. This country is going to hell in a handbasket because people like you who don't and won't stand on principle.
Your going off and another ranting moralizing speech again. Try to control that.
Your sole objective is to win.
That's what politicians do. It doesn't automatically mean that they are immoral.
You keep your party, I'll keep my principles.
That's the standard mantra you preachers all resort to. Try to be original next time.
