    My list includes two :

    1. Mitt Romney
    2. Jesus Christ

    I don't trust any party to do what's in the best interest of people when they nominate for the highest office in the land someone who readily rejects Jesus Christ.

    It speaks to an undergirding of wickedness for me.

    My Democrat list also includes two:

    1. Harry Reid
    2. Nancy Pelosi

    Harry Reid for the same reason as Mitt Romney and Nancy Pelosi because she's just about the most wicked woman alive today.

    They too speak of an undergirding of wickedness in the Democrat Party.

    What a load of horse poop!

    There is only one reason I can't support the Republican Party...the party leaders are all gutless cowards.

    Uh the Democrat party is as beholden to the rich as anyone else.

    Ditto for the Democrats

    This is just a flat out lie.

    Really? what are they? The Dems held the whitehouse and both houses of congress. What did they do during that tenure?

    Nope. they want to get the grip from around the necks of the working class. Unions are no longer for the workers, they are a political tool for Democrat power.

    When the sitting President is making a huge mistake that puts the world in jeopardy that is exactly what they should do.

    This is a lie.

    Obama got all kinds of money for "shovel ready" projects. What happened to it. This is nothing but a ploy to pass more socialist garbage.

    Debt? Uh the biggesst spender is Obama

    Good, if the progressivism is weeded out then amen! That is in fact what this tirade is about. Republicans are not liberal enough. I say bon voyage. Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord spit ya.


    Oh and take a long walk off a short pier while your at it.

    Insisting for years that he is pro-life CTB still supports the democrat party which celebrates, I mean celebrates. the continued slaughter of the unborn. Nothing but sheer hypocrisy!

    Furthermore, do you think so highly of yourself that you think any one on this BB cares whether or not you support the Republican Party.

    Romney doesn't reject Jesus Christ, he just does not have an adequate understanding of who Jesus Christ is!

    Well, you can vote for the squeaky clean Hillary unless you are for the rerun of Gary Johnson? Or do you favor Cherokee Woman?

    We can't just let anyone in the GOP. We have to keep up appearances. We already have exceeded our quota of Republicans who belong in the other party, who are on the wrong ticket. For example, all gays belong in the Democrat Party.

    And that is a problem with Open primaries.

    Riiiight, because the Democrats never take money from donors, eh? Never mind that most of Hollywood and the news media is liberal.

    And your proof is what? The planet has been warming and cooling for thousands of years, yet suddenly it has to be the fault of humanity?

    And which policies are those? You mean like the policy that says if you cannot afford insurance we will require you to purchase insurance, and then fine you for not being able to afford insurance? That policy?

    There was a time when labor unions were a big help, but that time is passed. Unions now are, by and large, myrmidons to the Democrats. They don't like it when someone can work without being forced by law to give part of their wages to the union in order to support political candidates they might not agree with. (As an aside, for all the talk about Democrats being the party of choice, they sure don't want people to choose whether they join a union, or what school their kids go to, or whether or not to own a gun...they only want women to choose whether or not to kill their unborn child.)

    Because the Democrats were the shining example of friendship and peace and love during the 8 years George W Bush was in office, right? By the way, your much vaunted "sitting president" just took to the airwaves to say that ISIS is...you guessed it...George Bush's fault.

    You mean like the policy that says if you cannot afford insurance we will require you to purchase insurance, and then fine you for not being able to afford insurance?

    And, to quote Kanye West: George Bush just doesn't like black people.
    Stop playing semantics and rhetoric games. All you're doing is throwing accusations at a wall to see what will stick.

    When George W. Bush took office in 2001, the national debt was $5.7 trillion. In 8 years of Bush Presidency, the national debt went up $4.9 trillion, to $10.6 trillion. Now, in the 6 years Obama has been in office, the debt has gone from $10.6T to $18.1 trillion. That means that in 6 years Obama has added $7.5 trillion to the national debt...but it's those evil Republicans who are to blame, right?

    The Democrats do the same thing. They cater to the whims of their masters...err...donors. The only thing is, when a Democrat waffles on a topic trying to cater to those donors, the media protects them. When Mitt Romney changed his mind on a topic, he was accused of flip-flopping. When Barack Obama changed his mind, he was touted as having an "evolving opinion."

    I agree. In SC you can only vote in one primary! So they are open in a way!
