Nonsense. I would have voted for Reagan. And I voted for Dole and Bush and McCain and Romney.
But I’ve had it. I’ve had it with being told that we must nominate a worthless moderate because that’s the best we can do. And because of this mentality, only moderates are ever nominated because that’s “who can win.” Yet they don’t. And when conservatives have been nominated, they do win. Or when they run as conservatives, they win. 1968 and ‘72. ‘80, ‘84, and ‘88. ‘00 and ‘04. 1994 and 2010. Brown in 2010.
We don’t have to settle for moderates. And I’m not voting for anybody just because they have an ‘R’ next to their name when I don’t agree with them or what they’re for or what they want to do. Because what’s the point?? So Mitch McConnell can be Majority Leader?? A man who has undermined conservatives as well? So that he can be rewarded with more power and influence? I’d like to see both McConnell and Cornyn defeated next year, the miniority leader and the whip, so we can have new leadership in the senate because God knows, not a single republican, no matter who gets elected, ever votes agains the leadership.

We don’t but we must (sometimes).
Wake up and smell the obamaphones.
