Thanks for the post.

IBD gets it. Now if conservatives would just stop, take a deep breath and think things through, to the net result of their actions.

"Ann Coulter may vote for Hillary Clinton, but we will not. The time for Coulters and the true believers to have rallied behind Mitt Romney was before Super Tuesday. It is by waiting for the next Reagan that they've risked sticking us with the next Clinton."

You’re welcome. It is high time to put President Reagan behind us. There will never be one like him, to try to make every candidate another Reagan is just wishful thinking

We've done that.

McAmnesty guarantees the long-term destruction of the Conservative Wing of the GOP. And by conservative I mean all four branches: Fiscal, Social, Defense, and a fourth which doesn't normally get mentioned because usually it is included in defense or security, Immigration.

He will run to the center and we will get moderate SCOTUS judges and Amnesty and he will sign whatever Global Warming bill the dems put on his desk and he will also sign any Embryonic Stem Cell research bill they put on his desk.

This will further alienate the conservatives and gaurantee either a long term minority status of several decades or cause the party to go the way of the Whigs.

With a Dem President, we have short-term pain, it will stiffen the spine of the current GOP member in Congress and will provide for victory at the Presidential level in 2012 and quite possibly a turn around in one or both houses in 2021 as well.

Rewarding the Liberals in the party for behaving has they have behaved only guarantees more of the same crappy behavior.

I for one will not reward their bad behavior or give them that power.

I will work to elect downstream CONSERVATIVE candidates in all down-stream races.

But McAmnesty will never get my vote.

Uh if that were to happen on FR, no doubt you would see swine flying in the air.

Sorry. I began to rally around Mitt Romney in January 2007, and yes I’m a TRUE conservative. I believe he was the right choice and don’t feel even a tiny bit responsible for McCain. Neocons and moderates like Bill Kristol and Michael Medved as well as people on the left, who pushed Huckabee to hurt Mitt and help McCain deserve most of the blame.
