LP, CP, or RP; you might as well cut the middleman and vote directly for Barry.
And I resent being called a "Leftist Republican"
HQ......please!
OK, so we should take your advice and vote for whatever leftist Republican whom the RNC chooses to grace us with?
If that's what we are to do, then you're asking us to vote for a leftist. Not vote our conscience, not vote for a conservative, not vote for whom WE feel is the best man for the job, but to vote for a leftist to keep another leftist out.
And how many years have Americans been doing this, and how far left have we moved because of it?
Your plea to keep the status quo, R & D bullshit going indefinitely, I hope to GOD is falling on deaf ears.
It never was a plea to keep the status quo, it's commonsense to minimize the damage from the radical left now ruling from the White House and Senate. As I've already stated, build the 3rd Party from the ground up, it can't be done from the top down. Any POTUS from a 3rd party has to get some cooperation from Congress. No way can RP be elected, but for a hypothetical argument say he is, as a 3rd party or even as a Republican. No way would he get anything done, both parties in Congress would block anything he tried. Ronald Reagan managed it somehow with a Democrat Congress and a RINO minority, but Ron Paul ain't no Ronald Reagan.
If Barry H Obama gets another 4 years, a 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 6th Party isn't going to do any good, we'll have passed the point of no return. The priority in 2012 is to get BHO out of the White House and work from there.
I completely understand your reasoning, but I can't agree with it.
I can't get past the point where I'm being asked to support and vote for the least leftist of 2 leftists.
If Barry H Obama gets another 4 years, a 3rd, 4th, 5th, or 6th Party isn't going to do any good, we'll have passed the point of no return.
I've heard that many times over the years. It's this leftist or that leftist who is the devil and will kill us all if he's elected to a second term.
I heard the same with Bill Clinton. It's scare tactics.
At what point do we stop voting for leftists and actually vote for conservatives?
When will the RNC run a conservative? Short answer is, they won't. The only way to win is to NOT play the RNC/DNC shell game. There is no pea under any of the shells.
Why not just vote for Ron Paul in the primaries. If he doesn't get it then support the R nominee. Shouldn't we at least try to get the "good" guy on the ballot?
