> You must not have kids.
LOL! I have ELEVEN kids, nine still at home, and TEN grandchildren so far! We live in the sticks, half a mile from the nearest neighbor. God has been very good to us.
I *WILL* indeed vote, as will my wife and my four oldest kids. We’re just waiting for all the fallout to pass.
Gingrich is a bright guy, but I fear that he wouild sell out the conservatives in a heartbeat, and I don’t think he can win, either.
I could reluctantly vote for Gingrich, but I also agree that I don’t think he has a snowball’s chance of winning the general election. This is the way the stupid party works.....they always make sure the “it’s my turn next” guy always gets his “turn”.
As I’ve stated in the past, the ballot box has become and absolutely worthless lost cause.
Congrats on the kids, I’m envious. Glad to know you’ll vote and I have the same fears, but I don’t worry about a RINO in the WH. For the vast majority of time they’ve been Dems or RINOs.
I just know we have to get rid of Obama. Toward that end we should work hard to elect the most conservative candidate we can during the primaries and I’d vote for Romney v. Obama any day. FReepers who pretend there’s no difference are foolish.
That said, the real check on power is a strong, knowledgeable base like us coupled with control of the House and Senate. We didn’t get here in one fell swoop. This is the culmination of generations of bad policy and I don’t expect to get out of it in one move.
Use gun control or abortion as our model - slow, steady, factual change. We need to recapture education from the Left. We’re making a dent in the media, big time. The word is getting out and there’s no conservative like an ex-liberal. They know all the lies and all the moves and won’t tolerate it.
