I don't understand people who espouse the "Republican candidate X Y and Z aren't conservative enough for me, so I will not vote for them or I won't vote at all." I just don't get the mindset. Have you never heard of a primary? Find a candidate that is more to your liking and bust your butt to get them victorious in the primary. But if they don't win the primary, then you know the majority of R's weren't with you this go around. Try again next time. The general election vote is not an all or nothin'. You have the option to vote your conscience at the primary. Do you?

The majority of R's now don't even represent the majority of R's in the party.

And I'd love to have a chance in next years primary to vote against Bush. Too bad no one will be on the ballot beyond the usual local people that run for the sakes of running. I applaud them. I might run myself.

I'm going to vote in the Dem primary so I can vote for whomever I think is the weakest against Bush.

Personally, I don't understand people that blindly follow party lines without criticsm.
