I am not defending anything merely affirming my right to call a spade a spade. Anyone can see that was not personal since it is a contingent statement applicable to any who take such a stance.

I have always enjoyed your comments over the years..and I'll accept you statement that it was not personal..yoyou were merely dangling a participal, or a gerund, or whichere..however..since 99.9% of those who read it took it as personal..perhaps in the future you will be more...dare I say it?..judicious..in your phraseology...

FYI..I happen to agree with your basic premise..the idea of sitting out, or voting for a third party, in a Hillary v Rudy 2008 race for the WH, to be smacks of a loss of sanity, though a principled loss, to be sure..and there are many ehre who have that viewpoint..Some you may be able to convince to reconsider, others are zealous purists..and we do need those..they are the conscious of the conservative movement...but we must keep them within the Republican tent..as one who cut his political eyeteeth in 1964 handing out..or trying to.. Goldwater literature in the Bronx..not an easy thing to do..we didn't go off and hide...we took back the party..
