Oh, and I went with Byrne for governor. He is likely not the most "Christian, Conservative" in the race (that would be Roy Moore), but he seems like he'd be a competent governor.

Ads have been run against him on Christian radio saying that he "believes in evolution and he believes that the Bible may not be completely true." That seemed a bit creepy to me.

So, are we to understand you voted for people more conservative than your current representatives, or you protested them by voting more liberal?

I basically like Shelby and Bachus. Wouldn’t want to see them look weaker in the general because of votes against them in the primary. That might encourage the DNC to spend money against them.

[BamaAndy]

I voted for Roy Moore too—otherwsise, against Shelby and Baucus as our poster.
Voted for Dale Peterson.

Good Lord...this may be the dumbest post ever on FR.

Good heavens. You people have lost your friggin minds.

Yeah, vote out the conservatives! WOO HOOOOOOOOO!

Morons, all of you!

The primary is the time to vote for who you truly want, not for who seems “electable”. You don’t have to compromise in the primaries.

In Oklahoma, we have 2 conservatives, Mary Fallin and Randy Brogdon running in the primaries.

Randy Brogdon is definitely the more conservative, and a strict constitutionalist. I will definitely vote for him in the primary, but if Fallin wins I’ll vote for her in the general.

I do the same thing.

Obviously you never became acquainted with the, uhm, guy, uhm, that was Shelby’s opponent. He would do nothing but make a mockery of this state.

I heard him at a Shelby County strawpoll event. If you ever thought Howell Heflin made Alabama look bad, he had nothing on Shelby’s opponent. I was not interested in making that guy a representative of this state on a national level.

Keep in mind, when you vote out these awful incumbents, guess who gets seniority positions on committees and such?

What all of America wants to know, did Dale Peterson win the Ag Commissioner race. He should have with that commercial of his.
