Money is only money. The killing of each innocent is infinitely more important than money. Thus, no truly PRINCIPLED conservative can rationally vote for Arnold. This is not emotion. This is purely the business of those who are principled.

America isn't going to come to an end if homosexuals get married or if women have the right to choose abortion.

Darned right! The right to cut heads off babies -- ain't that what America is all about?

Do you realize that Chuck Baldwin is the idiot who wrote this:

Is Bush the Antichrist?

Is it possible that "Pro-life" is not the most important issue in most Christian's minds?

Mom 'n' Pop Pew-warmer are interested in just one message -- keep on voting Republican.

Excuse me, but states had laws against abortion until 1973; don't you believe that it's up to the states to pass laws, not the Federal Government?

Why should the states have to get permission from the Feds to outlaw partial birth abortion, or to allow mothers to have INFORMED consent before having the procedure?

Do you realize how much better technology has become since that decision?

Amen. Thankyou Chuck Baldwin. Even among "Republicans," if you hold fast to principles you are somehow "extremist." Sad. It's why I re-registered Independent. I can't in good conscience associate with today's Republican. Today's Republican is yesterday's Democrat.

That is utter BS. I support the Constitution Party and I certainly have nothing in common with the KKK. I invite everyone to look them up, read the platform for yourselves. I agree with 95% of their platform. There IS NO RACISM there.

It's obvious that Chuck Baldwin and the Constitution Party don't consider being a Fiscal Conservative a critical issue. Let the single issue zealots go form their own party, we don't need them.


More BS. Go to their website and read their platform. They have NOTHING in common with anything you've said.

Evangelicals are really good at staying home on election day.

Not true. This site has many evangelicals, myself included. I not only vote but support my candidates with time and money. Most I know vote and vote regularly.

Let the single issue zealots go form their own party, we don't need them. When they are gone the GOP will gain more than enough moderate voters from the Democrats to replace the Religous Zealots .

In other words, you'll turn the Republican Party into the Democratic Party. We are typical of what the GOP used to stand for. You are typical of the Neo-Con group that is rapidly becoming Left because you have no principles. You merely wish to win..just like in high school.

And freedom is only freedom.

I never thought low taxes was just a fiscal issue. It's a freedom issue. Property rights is the basis of all our other rights.

I am pro-life and have in good conscience voted for pro-choice candidates when it helped further both the pro-life and other conservative causes. Defeating Davis and the feminazi, socialist, tax-n-spending, pro-abortion leftwing monopoly democrats in Cali will be a victory for conservatives - a HUGE victory - even if the new Guv is a moderate like Arnold.

Schwarzenegger is pro-abortion, pro-homosexual rights, pro-gun control, pro-green, and pro-illegal immigration. He even said that Clinton's impeachment made him "ashamed" to call himself a Republican. Furthermore, Schwarzenegger's immoral escapades make even Bill Clinton look unsoiled. He once bragged in an Oui magazine interview about participating in sex orgies, not to mention his repeated admissions of drug use. In spite of his personal and philosophical discrepancies, Schwarzenegger has received accolades from notable conservatives such as Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, and Pat Robertson, not to mention practically the entire national Republican hierarchy.

Orrin Hatch would like to see him elected president.

It's time for the core of the GOP to kick out the Religous Zealot Hijackers before they crash America into the ground.

HUH? Go for it. You'll have nothing left but Democrats in the Republican Party. We were here first, neocon. And we have no agenda save that which is good for this nation and the people living here. We're not looking for a theocracy but a return to a principled, moral nation. Why is that a problem for you?

The GOP cannot survive with an
electoral base composed of
libertarian and religious
conservatives.

The centrist "swing voters" decide the elections. Compromises with
this reality are essential.

You pick a few major conservative
issues to champion---like tax
cuts or national security--and you
hammer on those---and let the
rest be open to negotiation.

That's what Reagan did.

"The White House is acutely aware of the resonance this issue has with Christian conservatives, in particular. Last year, Bush political advisor Karl Rove commented that in the 2000 election, 4 million evangelicals, pentacostals, and fundamentalists stayed home on voting day."

Do you have any idea what Neo-Conservative is? Good grief . . . you're almost as bad as those "throw the Christian Right out of the GOP" morons.
