Now, I will be the first to admit that the GOP was very disappointing in the 2006 election cycle and although the Republicans have improved significantly in a lot of areas, they're still not doing as much as conservatives have asked them to do on spending, corruption, immigration, and foreign policy.
That being said, while conservatives need to continue to hold the feet of the GOP to the fire, as we did in the illegal immigration fight, we should not forget the potential perils of having a Democratic President at this sensitive time in our nation's history.
Today's Democratic Party and its likely nominee, Hillary Clinton, have moved well to the left of where they were in the pre-George W. Bush era. That could have some rather serious consequences if she becomes the next President of the United States.
Consider the following:
Kyoto: Clinton is a supporter of the Kyoto Protocol, which would cause energy prices to soar and would seriously damage the American economy even though most environmentalists will admit that it won't significantly cut the amount of greenhouse gasses being produced by mankind.
Corruption: Her brother was paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to help get pardons from her husband. During Hillary's previous stay in this White House, trips to the Lincoln bedroom were handed out for campaign contributions. She actually drew up legal documents that were used in the Whitewater land scheme and she got away with being bribed through a crooked cattle futures deal. Hillary Clinton would be one of the most corrupt Presidents ever to sit in the White House.

Well, if the GOP runs Giuliani, McCain, Romney, Brownback, Huckabee, or Fred Thompson...they will not be running a conservative.
They all are weak on the illegal alien issue, and, too much pro free-trade. You can bet the North American Union will be implemented when they are President
GOP cannot win unless they return to true conservatism. Running “Hillary-Lite” against Hillary is a sure-loser.
At least in the Presidential election, we have more than just the GOP to give conservative votes to. True conservatives are tired of wasting votes on weak GOPers
Let’s not get carried away with this third party stuff. NOTHING is surer of getting Hitlery elected.
for later
BOOKMARK! I gotta sleep sometime.
Let me guess, she’s a Globalist?
oh, wait... nevermind.
SURVIVAL of anything remotely resembling the Republic for which we stand
is sufficient reason to
beat her unroyal lowness.
your logic is flawed.... NO THIRD PARTY!!!!
bet you voted for perot as well....
that just allowed the clintons into the white house the first time
“True conservatives are tired of wasting votes on weak GOPers”
Hillary is counting on you dude. Keep up the good work!
Ronald Reagan was a free-trader as well. However, I still think he is the greatest politician in my lifetime.
My suggestions to all is vote for the candidate you support on the issues the most but if they lose in the primary get behind whoever our final nominee is.
Every Republican is much better than Hillary.
ANY Republican candidate would be better than The Hildabeaste. There are some RATS that would be as well.

The ghost of Liberace would be better than Hillary!
