Republican or third party?

Boy, do you ever speak for me.....

We will do more damage to our party by voting third candidate. And we will also put Hillary in by voting third party. What we need to do is vote for a conservative, to help ourselves out. That would just exclude Romney, & Guliani.

Bush has frustrated a lot of folks, lets not punish the country in our anger at him.

 

If people turn out in force for someone like Guiliani, then it sends the message that social issues don't matter. Once that threshold is passed, the GOP will pay only lipservice to the conservatives, knowing that they'll get the conservative vote either way.

 

The way around this is to find a candidate you would rather see in office and speak to people about him and support him any way you can find. as far as the dems winning they are imploding as we speak. they have lsot credibility on ending this war by failing their campaign promises, parading phony soldiers up front to prop up their false accusations.

 

If one votes for Republicans just because they are not Democrats, regardless of whether they are truly for limited government, then one will never get limited goverment regardless of how many Republicans get elected to office.

As long as the Republican Party is rewarded electorally for running big government candidates, then the Republican Party will continue to run big government candidates.

If one rewards bad behavior, then the bad behavior will continue.

 

Yeah sure, like some of us did for Ron Paul. Paul is a good choice for candidate and yet there have been so many here and on other boards trying belittle him and what he has done.

Never the less, I stand by Ron Paul as I believe he is the best choice.

Now now... you know this just isn't true. I will agree, they are acting like any other politican. The whole bunch is corrupt and needs to be thrown out, but you can't say that it's just the Democrats. Besides, they have tried to pass laws to limit or end this war, but without the 60% votes to override a veto, there's nothing much more they can do.

Funny how you can put all this blame on the Democrats and yet the Republicans are just as bad if not, at times worse.

Also, it didn't take you long to parrot Rush with the 'phony soldiers' comment... Do you have any original thoughts of your own?

The only way to end the runaway and overreaching GOP machine is to vote for the Democratic candidate, regardless if it is Edwards, Clinton, or even a flying monkey.

 

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

 

You know, what puzzles me is most of the "anybody but a Democrat" folks on here would be giving us the same arguments in favor of Hillary or Obama if they had an "R" behind their names.

Tell me, why is a Republican who governs like a liberal Democrat any better than a Democrat who governs like a liberal Democrat?

At least if Hillary is elected, you'll have enough Republicans in the Senate to stifle the 60 necessary votes to pass anything extremely liberal. If a liberal Republican is elected, you'll have the support of the Dems and Reps in the Senate for their liberal spending policies.

Now, I don't think I could vote for Hillary if my life depended on it, but really, how much worse would she be than what we have now?

 

Btw, I wonder, if by some wild stretch of the imagination Dr. Paul does win the Repub nod, would Sean Hannity all of a sudden come out in support of him and find all sorts of reasons to praise him?

Hmmmmm.....

 

Have you ever voted for a Democrat for President? I've voted for two Republicans.

 

I've spread my votes around. I have voted in my lifetime, for president - Democrat, Libertarian, Republican, Write-In(Jack Kemp), Constitution Party, Libertarian, Republican, Republican.

 

In your case I agree fully with your Conservative Party's decision. But at the national level I don't think there is enough time left to send this message (voting 3rd party, to alert the GOP), and still be able to recover later. If hillary survives 8 years, the dems will have cemented their hold on Congress till the end of this age. IMO and look who's in charge.......radical leftists...G. Soros and his ilk.

 

I'd bet the farm on it. hillary is the enemy....

And S. Hannity's support for Rudy is largely because of their shared religion...The RCC, IMO

 

Me too but I know I've only voted for Republicans so far in the big ones.

 

You mean, all the screaming you are doing about Rudy Giuliani and you voted for Jimmy Carter?
Look. The single most important issue to me is the radical Islamic threat. Giuliani understands this, I think, better than all the other candidates. Believe me these people are cooking up something real special for us and a democrat in the white house will not stop them. It will make their job much easier. I hate abortion too, but you can make all the laws in the world and it will not change a persons heart on the matter. We as Christains should be telling others about Jesus Christ and the abortion issue will take care of itself.
THINK. PEOPLE! THINK! Hillary Clinton will be a useful idiot in the hands of the radical Islamists in their quest to finish us off. These people are very patient. They are lying in wait for the right time and just like some of you, they would hate to see Rudy Giuliani in the white house also.
A third party candidate doesnt have a chance. You know as well as I that any third party conservative will be heavily funded by the Democrats. Like I said on another post, If you dont vote for Giuliani you are voting for Clinton.
