On one point we disagree: I do not respect those who choose to sit on their fat rear ends because the candidate facing the Dem does not agree with them on every single issue. Or he is divorced, for crying out loud.

I actually had the intense displeasure of voting for Edwin Edwards for governor here in La. I had to hold my nose when I pulled the lever, but I had no choice but to vote against the goose-stepping, KKK hood-wearing, Nazi-salute-giving David Duke.

Those who choose to stay home because their Republican candidate does not meet their standards are disqualified from whining until the next election. I have no patience with them whatsoever. Likewise, a "protest vote" vote for some 3rd party wannabe is a vote for Daschle/Gephardt. And the fact that those who cast those pathetic "protest votes" claim some moral superiority based upon their alleged ethical purity is repulsive.

Good Reminder!

...All the more reason to vote for BILL SIMON!!!!

I'd hate to see this great state handed over to the Environuts and Freaks on a silver platter.

We may not be political twins...
but rest assured that if I were a registered voter in Arkansas, I'd be pulling
the lever for Hutchinson tomorrow.

I'm still laughing/groaning at the Pryor ad where he's wearing a camo shirt and giving
his spiel at standing at the end of a pickup truck.

Talk about going for multiple interest groups...you can't tell if Pryor is getting
ready to go hunt quail with all his NRA buddies...or heading out with Special Forces
at Kandahar.

As an expatriate Okie, I haven't yet forgiven Arkansas for giving us Clinton...
and untreated sewage in our Illinois River...

I agree, AR conservatives should vote for Tim Hutchinson, imperfections notwithstanding. However, I do not think AR will reelect Hutchinson: it is too Democrat to do so.

Less evil? Heck, let's vote for a great guy!

Tick, tick, tick... California politics is like California baseball: it ain't over 'til it's over!

Let's get out the vote! Here's a tool...

Click here to download the California Republican Liberty Caucus' tri-fold pamphlet on the governor's race!

It's a .pdf file, so you'll need Acrobat Reader... it's free, and chances are good you already have it on your computer. Try the link and see.

Print it using the printer-icon button in the Acrobat toolbar in your browser (not File|Print in your browser's menu). It's intended for double-sided printing using single pieces of paper-- no stapling needed if you do it that way, and saves trees! ;-) Print one side, then invert the paper and feed it through a second time for the second side. Fold, and sally forth to get out the vote!

Give this to friends, walk your neighborhood, take it to stores, give a wad of 'em to your school, hand some out at your house of worship, at clubs, at stores and small businesses...

Let's retire Gray Davis!

Let's show the media and RINOs that "It's the base, stupid!"

Let's show Gray Davis that money can't buy him love ...or re-election!

Freepers and RLC activists can claim considerable credit for nominating Bill Simon, so now let's elect him!
