If not, and you let the R's power brokers dictate the results of primaries, and continue to run police state candidates, then you'll never get my vote.

Reality check: A principled loser is still a loser.

It's just that simple.

To flip it around, an unprincipled winner is still unprincipled.

That's fine.

Go ahead and call us losers. By all means continue to elect candidates that violate the Constitution.

I'm not telling you not to. I'm not trying to influence your party, it's beyond redemption. You can have it.

But don't whine when your party loses a close election because you don't have our votes. Lost control of the Senate? Tough. You make your decision at the primary where R's nominate police-state candidates. Decisions have consequences. Deal with it. If calling us losers makes you feel better, have at it. Just don't expect votes.

Maybe you're right, but an unprincipled winner makes losers of us all. Doesn't it bother you at all when your candidate wins and turns out to be as bad as the democrat he replaced?

Better to die on your feet than live on your knees.
