“I would vote for the Democrat, because letting them get away with their race bating tactics will cause us far more damage in the long run. Showing them that it was a mistake will curtail much future damage and misery.”

I have to admit that you have a valid point. If I were a McDaniel supporter, I’d probably feel the same way.

At this immediate point, I just can’t bring myself to the point where I’ll actively vote against the GOP in an election. For all of the warts the GOP leadership has displayed, I still see our side as being better than the Dems. A lot of other Freepers would beg to disagree, saying were no different than the Dems. I still think we are.

DL, what exactly is the "Tea Party?" Is it organized? Can I join? Change my registration to it? Does it have a Party Platform Beyond The Platitudinous? PPBTP? If I buy a "Tea Party" bumper sticker, who gets the money? Or is this a sort of Senior Citizen answer to the Justin Bieber Fan Club? What?

I am serious. I really have no idea. I welcome answers. I am the guy that is looking not so much for a "party" but a Program that will need a fully developed and committed PLAN to implement it, and of courseA LEADER or LEADERS to hold it all together.

What I am getting is one harrumphing "conservative" sound bite after another. The ONLY good programmatic idea I have heard in 5 years is Mark Levin's idea for a Constitutional Convention of the States, no matter which party is in the ascendancy.. Great Idea! BFD! Where's the implementation? Where are the Republican Governors? Where are the leaders in the State Houses, i.e., the people who under the Constitution are supposed to be running the country?

2014: Anyone who can say "Not Democrat" should lead to victory in the House and Senate. BFD! Where's The Plan, Stan?

When I voted for Romney and contributed to the party and campaigns they didn’t just take me for granted, they believed they could do anything and I’d still support them. I’m not encouraging them anymore and I’m letting them know that. You cast your vote as you see fit, I’ll cast mine.

It doesn’t get filed until next week, they had to get court orders to inspect poll books and ballot boxes in many counties and that gave them an extension on filing. They were still gathering info at the courthouses Tuesday and the filing is to take place Weds. or Thurs. Today it was announced that Monday Senator McDaniel would have another statement.

Anyone who’d vote for Thad Cochran and thinks he is “on our side” should be committed to an asylum.

Say, what is the one-eyed crack whore’s stand on gun rights? It sounds like we’ve found an alternative to the GOP!

I can’t answer that. I only know 3 crack whores and none of them like talking politics.

Cochran keeps voting for Obama's Judicial appointees anyway, so it really won't make a whole h*ll of a lot of difference if he's there or a Democrat is.

Hey you want to vote for democrats? It's a free country. Me? Not a chance in hell. I just leave the senate race in Mississippi unchecked. How about Kentucky and Tennessee? You recommending conservatives vote for democrats there as well?
