I certainly hope you are correct, but there are many here who would cut off their Nose to spite their Face.
I favor the Levin Rule, Vote your Candidate in the Primary and Vote your Party’s Candidate in the General.
Anything else guarantees the “Enemy” will obtain power and the person that you could have influenced (even if you disagree with some of their Policies) will not be in Office.
I think Harriet Myers and Amnesty when President Bush (RINO-Texas) was in Office. Even being Conservatives, we influenced some of his initial RINO based decisions.
Sounds like simple common sense to me. However, I am attacked for that stance whenever I mention it. A Purist with no Political Representation is just a voice in the wilderness.
I don’t like it, but it’s the way it is. Until the Party that is closest to our Belief system (Republican) is in Power, we have no influence whatsoever. You have to walk before you can run. With Democrats in charge, we are lucky if we are allowed to crawl.
I understand, and I agree.
