The object of an election is to win a majority of the votes. This usually involves winning the hearts and minds of the electorate.

"I'm just afraid we're missing that opportunity here right now."

The BIG story is the blow to the Democrat party monopoly on Sacramento. The opportunity to elect a conservative was missed by Bill Simon last november.

"Thanks for the courteous back and forth!"

Dittos.

I am now attacked on both sides as allowing 'baby killing' and as handing over the party to the 'religious zealots'. I cant win for trying ... I'm trying to get the advocates out of circular-firing-squad mode and find myself in the middle!

It reminds me that: "The Good is the enemy of the Best"

The Republican Party no more desires conservatives in political office than the Democratic Party does, and people who think otherwise are only deceiving themselves. My county chair is conservative, as were our past two chairs. The county exec committee is conservative. Our state party chair is conservative. Conservatives are THERE.

Yes we are there, for sure. And in office - we have a solid conservative House Majority leader - Tom DeLay. Texas has a conservative Governor and Lt Governor. The list is endless. I would add, the Republican Party activist base as a whole is far more conservative than it was in say the 1970s.

Kumbayah does not save. Jesus alone does. I pray you will learn that fact on earth, not in front of God. We are all sinners and worthless apart from Christ.

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

What 'warped religious agenda' do you keep talking about? Stopping people from killing unborn humans???

No matter how you try to frighten and confuse people, America isn't going to come to an end if homosexuals get married or if women have the right to choose abortion. Freedom means people being able to live their own lives without having to get the approval of a Theocrat.

You sound like Howeird Dean on drugs - calm down and explain youself. Protecting unborn human beings by regulating abortion is a THEOCRACY??? Are you SERIOUS???

I already voted for McClintock.

I'm happy to report that I don't feel dirty as a result...

All that would be left of the GOP would be some country club Rockefeller/Gerald Ford clones and a handful of virolent anti-Christian hate-mongering bigots. Together they might win a local school board election or state senate seat. In a nation-wide election they would be toast, as they always are.

Every national GOP win since 1988 has been due to the Evangelical vote. Deal with it.

"The Republican Party's Lack of Commitment to Conservatism" is why I cringe at sending them money. They are better than the Libs, not sure how much.

It's about time we started focusing on their brains and pocketbooks.

You make no political sense, nor logical sense.

America has survived for 200 years without a constitutional
'right to abortion' and 230 years maintaining marraige as an institution between one man and one woman only, and if both policies were maintained is it was in America in 1964, America would survive just fine for 250 more years.

You need to lighten up and enjoy the 'big tent' party we are having. Dont be so intolerant and divisive!

The murdering of innocent children is everyone's business. You can pretend it’s none of your business but their blood still stains your soul nonetheless.

Your illusions and $2.00 will buy you cup of coffee almost anyplace in town. And that's all they will ever buy you.

There you go again, insulting rather than explaining.

You are nothing but a disruptor on this thread.

Please go ahead and rub a few brain cells together and *explain* your comment that being pro-life implies being a Theocrat.

I am interested in the 'twisted agenda' behind such a brilliant fib.
