This is the same “lesser of two evils” idea which we have heard over and over from the uniparty. I think everyone needs to understand that there are a lot of people who are NOT going to just punch R to prevent a D.

There is no conservative majority in the House and there has never been one in our lifetime. We know only too well what a Republican majority is and does.

It’s a timely reminder that the Democratic Party is little more than a criminal conspiracy and that any conservative who sits at home during the midterms, griping about “GOPes,” will be complicit in the destruction of the republic.

Don't blame conservatives for not "towing the party line"

It's been historically the "moderates' of the party who abandoned the conservative in the race when conservative win the primary and the suburbanites refuse to accept the results and support the Democrat.

Now, if the "moderates do not jump in line behind Trump and his candidates, our "moderate allies" will find that in the future conservatives will no longer accept the "status quo" and say "To hell with you GOP-Es" and here is what you expect us conservatives to swallow each election cycle.

It's Trump's way or GFY!

“I think everyone needs to understand that there are a lot of people who are NOT going to just punch R to prevent a D.”

You take care of that in the primaries.

Otherwise, you are handing a seat to an official Democrat in November, and there is no way to spin that. You arent teaching anyone a “lesson”, and that Dem isnt going to watch the way they vote because some hayseeds stayed home, and thus think their win was illegitimate.

So either keep the dem out of the seat or stop lying to everyone about how bad they are.

And Republicans just say,”Oh well, I guess we lose.” Republicans should “find” more Republican votes.In November these games are going to be played more enthusiastically than ever. They will “find” or manufacture new votes when elections are not nearly so close as has been the practice to date but this coming election is a Revenge election and so it will be much more blatant than ever. And Republicans will still just say,”Oh, well, I guess we lose.”

Any Conservative who does not vote in these mid-terms is a Bum, a collaborator.

If there is any doubt about going to the polls use early balloting or mail-in ballots. If not registered, register.

So you have no idea of how much time these investigations even without sabotage every step of the way?

"Every time there is a recount or dispute in an election, the Democrats gain votes."

If true (and I suspect it is), a huge statistical preponderance of "found votes" favoring Democrats over multiple different elections "should" be sufficient evidence in and of itself to prove the presence of vote corruption.

Is anyone aware of any study that has actually "run the nunbers"?

I think this is the most naïve thing I have read on FreeRepublic.

Jeff Sessions should have walked in & formed a special committee to investigate the crimes of the previous administration on day one. If he had, I wouldn’t mind it taking a while to get the case ‘just right.’ But it’s obvious he did NOT do that, & no one who was in the upper echelon of the FBI or Justice Department was going to do it. They would’ve been investigating crimes they participated in. We KNOW they were complicit with the previous regime!

There should’ve been a special prosecutor or Independent Counsel to look at all allegations of illegality. Since it hasn’t happened, it most likely won’t.

Is that Dem senator from Alabama voting conservative?

No?

Well there you go.

They can’t expose the Kenyanesian Usurper without exposing their own culpability in the violation of the Constitution.
