There's always a way to get involved, always a way to make your vote and your campaign contribution count. Not all Republicans are good, but there are plenty of good Republicans. What's the bottom line of this author's argument? That the fight is a tough one so we should all give up? That doesn't even sound like advice to me... but rather, disinformation straight from the camp of the Enemy.

I see your point but I don't think that's what the author is saying. He's not advising Republican voters to stay home; he's warning the party that their policies and votes may cause voters to stay home in disgust. I think the warning is worth listening to. The pubbies at least have to put up a fight once in a while rather than always turning their butts up in surrender hoping that they can win by not making any waves. "Vote for us, we gave Tom Daschle a group hug!" Doesn't sound like a winner to me.

The author is not advising the Right to stay home. He IS warning the GOP that we will stay home if they keep behaving like Democrats. Staying home and not voting is a lot more palatable to a lot of people than voting for rats, snakes, and other RINO's. Why reward the GOP when they betray us?

You are right about the primaries. And before I'm flamed for my comments on this thread about giving up, I have worked hard to get 3 local conservatives on the ballot for November and will continue to work hard to get them elected. It's the State House, but in PA we need all the good guys that we can get.
