Bush HW should have been the wakeup call for Conservatives... and DOLE should have been the mass exodus from the GOP.. Looking back with 20/20 HINDSIGHT...
But, after the bloodpressure spike causing a 45 minute nosebleed, after voting for Sarah, and having to drag McLAME ALONG, was enough for me.
Shall I vote for a Liberal (R) just to save the GOP’s BUTT. NO MORE.. IF the USA is going to hell, I WANT A LIBERAL DEM at the HELM.
The beauty of having Hoffman run is that he is a VIABLE conservative third party candidate - VERY viable.
Says it all.
I'm pro Hoffman, but I think we should not over-play our cards here. Many people (inc. me) despise Dede because she's neither social nor economic conservative, that makes the choice of voting for the 3rd party candidate, Hoffman, very easy. Dede is DIABLO, not even RINO.
In most cases, however, our choices are not that clear. We might have a strong economic conservative, but embrace gay marriage, and/or abortion. Or, a strong social conservative but is happy to spend your money. The Democrats, however, in general embrace both. If the Dims claim to embrace only one of them, Pelosi will twist their hands (we'll see what happen with the health bill). In those cases, voting a 3rd party candidate might not be an optimal action, especially when it's obvious that the implication is sending a Dim to Washington.
Thread Bump.
The real climate change catastrophe
David Gergen: The National Deficitof Leadership IMHO, losing RINO Gergen is a major loss fot rats.
Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
Hopefully Hoffman pulls this off. If he doesn’t, let’s hope he storms right back and knocks this ACORN approved RINO off in the primary a year from now.
