I pretty much do, but not because they squabble, but because they are the same.
I vote for Constitutionalists. If they don't exist, I abstain.The rest don't deserve a vote IMO!

Not wishing to waste my vote and leave the dems in office I'll be voting Republicans straight down the ballot.  If we can keep the Tea Party from screwing this up we'll be lucky.

I vote for who I feel will be the best for the USA. I don't give a rats what their name is or what color they are. If a demican or republicrat can show me that they are seeking office to build America then they will get my vote. Once. If they dishonor their Oath of office they can KMA. The Constitution and the BOR's are the defining documents. Beyond that or short of, and they are have dishonored their Oath. I am a Constitutionalist more than any other affiliation, barring that,libertarian is probably a close second.

Clean out the barn is exactly what needs to happen. Sadly too many voters dont do their homework and dont find out who in hell they are supporting, not the real person anyway. Some fools make fantasy votes, you know, "the I'll show em votes"! no one especially the politicians give a rats ass about those votes they are meaningless. Did ya ever see who came in dead last make any real news unless it was a joke!   


A third party vote in the next two elections is a vote for the incumbant! Do what you want and live with that but dont blame anyone else for what happens!

Conservatives make up the majority of voters in this country. So get out and vote! Get your friends to the polls.  If conservatives stick together and vote in force they can't loose!

New Battleground Poll – 63% consider themselves conservative

As readers may remember, I’ve been monitoring the George Washington University Battleground Poll for quite some time. In August I wrote about the July results showing a 2 point increase in the number of registered voters who considered themselves conservative or very conservative. This week we had 4 point move.

Previous results of the exact same question has shown between 57 and 59 percent of those polled considered themselves somewhat conservative or very conservative.

Those who say they are conservative, and those who are conservative aren't the same thing at all.

least we forget the middle of the left and right elect . That fact alone shows how close the canidates must be to even be considered . So a consertive is really not so much one in voting nither is a liberal.
 The beauty of the tea party is at the primary and other small elections. It may get a different canidate on the republican ticket. And if enough fear is instilled in the rep party we may see a change in nov. If not it will be business as always.
If ya can see it ya can hit it !

WHEN was the last time your liberal leftist friends compromised on anything. Seems I remember Herbert Walker Bush compromising on taxes after he said "read my lips, no more taxes" He got that used against him in the next election by both parties!  Even you Dem guys that asked him to compromise.  YEA!!!! COMPROMISE TO LEFTIST MEANS GIVE US WHAT WE WANT!


BARK UP SOME OTHER TREE, LIBERAL!!!

I've cleaned out a barn or 2 in my life . There's no automatic switch to throw that does this it requires work. You got to sort the good from the bad and the useful from the useless.
Throwing everything out and starting over is wasteful, and isn't that the whole point of cleaning up to get rid of waste? Cleaning a barn is a smelly job and your gonna step in some stuff and if you want to do the job right your gonna have to put up with it. The smell never goes completely away but you can make it smell a whole lot better.
Now you can empty the barn sweep out the floor and spray smell good all over it, but it's still a barn. Around here an empty barn usually means someone just lost the farm.

To compromise with the liberal parasite left ( they hate America nad its constitution ) is to allow them to slowly chip away with our frredom. I am to the point of I would not even help someone if I knew they were a liberal. If they was in a burning car with a Brack bumper sticker I'd laugh and watch as they burned.
99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

Yep vote the republicans back in and watch the same ole same ole happen some more. The only reason a vote for an independent is wasted is because too many folks are brainwashed by the major parties.

For many years we have heard that trash and kept putting the same old crooks back in. This time be warned its time for the independent votes to be joined not talked into voting rep. This time the wasted votes will be rep votes . It won't be indep. votes that keep demo's in it will be rep's votes.

A lot of the Reps got the message, and a lot of them from the TEA party.
