None of it matters. Women turned out in droves for Hillary yesterday. If that trend continues she will stomp any and all opponents. I was afraid of this from the start, softened some by Iowa but yesterday was proof that women are emotional people and the crying worked. I am ill beyond belief.

I won’t stay home. I am, however, quite particular who I vote for. I take my responsibility seriously. I will definitely vote, I just won’t necessarily vote for whoever the party machine nominates.

I try to hold on to my loyalties, and even though FOX was changing before my eyes-(for the worse), I still thought it was 'the conservative network'...

...Shutting out Hunter from the debate did it for me....eyes wide open.

I don't/won't watch it now.

I didn't leave the Republican Party.....it left me.

I didn't leave George Bush....he left me.

I didn't leave FOX....they left me.

Like Hunter said the other day, CNN is looking a little better...at least they have Glenn Beck and HE HAS Duncan Hunter on quite often....and speaks very well of him.

It's never wrong to be trusting, but when/if you find out you've placed your trust in the wrong person/place/institution.....don't keep making the same mistake.

"if they don’t want to vote for prez they will stay home."

I have some local interests to vote on and will vote for Duncan Hunter if such choice is available or write-in allowed.

if there is a general feeling that the GOP isn’t worth voting for, some will vote for the other races but I guarantee many will just not bother. It will be really bad if Hillary wins and I don’t see a Newt that will turn things around after 2 years.

Besides, even if the GOP wins the next midterms, it won’t change the fact that our national security will be ripped to shreds.

What the thread is about is voting against someone not for someone. Same old story of the last four or five elections. The last guy I voted for was Reagan.

If Rudy, Huckabee or Paul win the nomination, I’m staying home.

If Mitt or McCain wins it, I’ll vote, choking with nausea.

If Fred or Hunter wins it, I’ll vote happily.

Sorry, but that’s the way it’s going to be. The first 3 will do even more damage than Hillary will. Hillary’s liberal policies will at least be fought tooth and nail by the minority of conservatives who will at least be capable of filibusters. If it’s one of the 3 RINOs, -no- one will fight them.

I will vote for Conservative Republicans but will write in Thompson’s name for President. I will NEVER vote for a liberal... even a rino liberal. NEVER AGAIN!

“Honestly, Paul is the most Constitutionally faithful candidate with any shred of support.”

The past 45 years has shown an ideological/political shift away from the Founding Father’s values/doctrines to the point where they are no longer even taught in school. Each successive generation moves farther and farther away from what used to be an almost innate consciousness of freedom and liberty.

Now it’s all bread and circuses courtesy of both democrat and republican elected officials. IMO, we are witnessing the end times of a political experiment that was birthed 231 years ago.

Wasn’t it Ben Franklin who said we have a republic, “if we can keep it”?

you’re looking at democrats. the obama voters are just as vacuous and emotional as the hillary voters. At least the hillary voters can say she has ‘something’ besides her gender and tears

The whole premise of this thread is as about as silly as this...

And I certainly won't be voting for any of these...

Supporting liberal Republicans has ALWAYS led to a dim President. It is you liberals that are fracturing the GOP... the Conservative base is in lockstep. 2006 taught you people NOTHING... perhaps 2008 will finally destroy Reagans dream... that is the outcome of your liberal actions. Are you proud?

Well why would one stay home when one has far more important votes to cast than what irrelevant asshat will occupy the white house. There are school levies, water/sewer levies, state amendments, councilmen, mayor, sheriff, county commissioners, local ordinances, dog catcher, coroner, engineer, city judges, county judges, state judges, state legislators, state senators, governors, congressmen and senators. Just take a pass on the presidential ballot if the GOP nominates a moral retard.

Substitute a picture of McLoon and I’d be just as sickened.

If its McInsane versus Hillary there’s no lesser evil.

I don't believe anyone that will read this board will not vote in local elections, just write in or abstain for POTUS.

The figures I saw last night said that an overwhelming number of women went to Hillary about 2 to 1 for the indendpendts.

National security has already been ripped to shreds by the past two administrations and their open borders policies.

Show me State by State proof that we are in danger of having less than 41 conservative Republican Senators and you might be able to convince me a little.

Short of that, the argument you’re advancing is nothing more than drama queen fear tactics.

They are even worse than RNN as they have now trotted out The -ah-Reverend Jessie Jack-son (my best Rush voice).

So far the FNC line up this morning has been:

1. Barak Obama
2. Hillary Clinton
3. Jessie Jackson

Not a Republican in sight. I guess there really is no difference in cable news now. What a disappointment FNC has become
