Thats why we need to get Cristine O'Donnell elected, I heard that she`d be sworn in immediately after the election, that give us one more to filibuster any lame duck efforts. www.christine2010.com

Could be the threat of letting him lose in November just to rid ourselves of him, got his attention.

I think we should put McCain on probation, and I applaud him when he makes the right (emphasis on RIGHT) decisions. McCain strayed pretty far, but he’s not Mike Castle bad. If we are wise, we will welcome him and any other RINO who repents so long as they behave (or until a better conservative comes along). As far as I’m concerned, a big tent is fine so long as it’s filled with friends.

Reagan: “The person who agrees with you 80 percent of the time is a friend and an ally — not a 20 percent traitor.”

Speaking of the DREAM Act, I honestly think America would be more receptive AFTER the border is secure, immigration law is enforced, the anchor baby problem is addressed, and the DREAM Act is modified for the truly hard cases, i.e. came here as an infant, never really knew any other country but the US, etc.

Somebody needs to tell Reid that Illegal Immigrants are not eligible to join the military. All Military applicants must provide proof of citizenship or permanent residency authorization. Also, people who are technically “wanted” for violation of a federal or state law are ineligible and illegal immigrants are in that category. Someone ought to mention they are “illegal” and the military can’t take them.

Ah, got the nomination sewed up again from those suckers, why wait for the general election, time to pull out that knife and hit’em between the shoulder blades: again.

You people in Arizona keep electing this lying bastard, you get what you deserve...

So you haven’t even bothered to pick up the phone or send an email or letter telling them they can take you off the mailing list thus saving the RNC $$$ and time for 25 years?

I see........

Well, maybe you would do it for the trees cut down to make the flyers you throw away... ‘cause you apparently wouldn’t do it so the RNC has more money to spend fighting leftists. Did you ever think maybe the reason the RNC believes it has to go more to the center is precisely because people like you are so fickle on them and don’t respect their outreach with contributions of money and time?

[Oldpuppymax]

Still posturing as a conservative, Juan? The primaries have you really spooked haven’t they!!

[Doogle]

whoa there Mac, when you get done ripping me and YOU OBVIOUSLY have no idea who or how I contribute too, you might consider how long I’ve been here and understand what I’m saying....jumping conclusions and making assumptions like you do are making you look foolish....so put down your flame thrower,have a cup of juice,because your too hyper to have any coffee,and back off....

[Catsrus]

Let’s not forget that he hasn’t won re-election yet. Just the primary, so, its to his benefit to go conservative at this time.

Longetivity here? Is that all you got? So your entire claim to fame and sense is your longetivity here. I see. Well, we elected Obama because he spent his life as a community organizer...

Speaking as someone who actively worked in politics for many years at the local, state, and federal level, I can assure you that supporting the RNC isn’t a pre-requisite for helping the Republican Party. In fact, being selective about whom you support would be a wise move considering the RINO’s sucking off the Party.

Backing individual candidates will do far more to ensure that we’re heard than begging the Ruling Class in DC for a favor. Try getting through to anyone with functioning gray matter in DC even at the RNC. I’ve called the RNC trying to report voter fraud and no one carried one whit. When I do get through, which is rare, I get nothing but VM or some moron who knows nothing. Case closed.

I think sometimes freepers can be too vindictive. The idea is positive reinforcement.

When he does something good we should applaud him for it, that’s the way to encourage him to do the right thing next time. Blocking this bill is the right thing to do and I’m glad McCain is doing the right thing here.

...don’t make assumptions. ..and I had nothing to do with electing Obama, as YOUR saying. Don’t use “WE”.

I did everything I could to stop the communist threat. I am the owner of a mature company (24 years this fall) in a high tech industry. A card carrying republican. Prior to that I worked in our defense industry during the most wonderful president of our time, the Teflon man. I have always worked to destroy the Communist threat.
I knew McCain was a weak candidate, but I did everything I could to support him. I donated to the RNC to the max, I even slipped family members and friends the money to see to it they contributed to the max.
Regardless of the man's character and weaknesses, what choice did I have?
The Red threat is alive and well, some obvious, and some in stealth. They must be identified and ousted, all of them. And right now, the only way to do it is to support only those with true allegiance to our Constitution.
The RNC can not be trusted.
We must support each and every candidate on a separate basis. We need to bank roll them, and we need to piss on the rest of them.

Thanks. You have received positive reinforcement for a sensible post.
