A Palin or Jindal or Paul or whomever you like, if you support them, send them $25 a quarter, that allows them to build name recognition. Or people can just bytch about it, not support anyone and vote for whatever the party throws out there next time.

It's not like anyone has to be like ACORN nut, not have a job and it's all they do. The Internets makes it easy to find out the truth about people, their actual voting record, write them with concerns, send a few bucks. Support 'em.
Very well put good sir!

You don't sound very happy about getting what you wanted.
Is there an English translation for this?

Explain to me why, if The People (Republicans in particular) want a conservative, they didn't not vote for one in the primary?

And I would like you to address this without bringing Bush into it, because he wasn't running in 2008.
Who did you vote for in the Republican Primary?

I think the question deserves an answer. If so many Republicans, across America, are so conservative and cast their protest vote/non-vote in the general how in the heck did McCain win in the primary? With the numbers that threw the GOP candidate out of the general how in the world did McCain win? With these numbers that didn't vote or voted third party, certainly there should have been a Romney or Huckabee or even a RON PAUL as their man in the general.

Good Lord. Every time I answer this specific question, it gets ignored so, let's try a different tack!!!

I'm wrong. Y'all are RIGHT. The nation don't want no conservatives! The nation, the right, WANTED John McCain, needed John McCain, just had to have John McCain!

I hope he runs again!

You haven’t answered the question. You’ve done your typical dance of platitudes and soliloquies.

You keep wanting to talking about who was conservative enough and who wasn’t. We have established that McCain was not conservative enough.

We’ve beat this up before. The numbers were in the GOP’s favor. If the GOP had come out in force and voted for McCain he would have won, hands-down. What this means is if there were the numbers to win the general and there was this big protest by so many GOP conservatives against McCain, certainly a different candidate would have been picked in the primary. Where were all these conservatives in the primaries? What happened?

I have my answer. What’s yours?

Let's establish this Larry, I don't want McCain. I don't want Paul.

But I would like an answer. Unless of course you don't have one.
