Well, then why can’t you get 60% of the party to support your candidate.
I’ve never heard such whining in politics as the losers who think everyone else is out of step but them.
I bet you guys took the ball and went home when the team didn’t want you to play quarterback.
I’m not a Republican, at this point I hardly care which party wins.
Bill, that's a stupid, shallow, and false analogy.
When you're playing football, you're doing it because you love to play football and competitiveness drives the need to "win," even though whether Team A or Team B wins is of zero importance in the real world. In fact, because it is of zero real importance, is why things like football provide such a popular outlet for people.
When you're engaged in supporting a political candidate, whether a leftist or a limited government conservative wins makes a profound difference in the real world.
Some of us refuse to support Republican leftists because we understand that truth. Some of you consider such refusal as the equivalent of "taking our ball and going home because the team doesn't want us to play quarterback." If you insist on a sports analogy, use one that is more accurate: it's more like leaving when moron players want to use our ball to play a dangerous nightmare game.
