I will be voting the most conservative ticket I can - as always.

REAL conservatives work from a balanced budget. If you cut taxes, you MUST cut spending accordingly.
REAL conservatives would never, ever, hire a foreign company to be in charge of U.S. port security.
REAL conservatives wouldn't allow U.S. jobs to go overseas.
A REAL conservative would never, ever, hire an illegal alien.
The list goes on, but I'm one moderate who wishes we had more REAL conservatives in our government. VOTE MCGRAW !!!

It's been that way forever. JFK was the one who got the ball rolling back in the 60's.

Real conservatives aren't calling themselves moderate.

You sound like those who tried to toss Joe Lieberman because he was a 'conservative' democrat. Haven't you figured out your party doesn't LIKE or SUPPORT a 'conservative' democrat?

Why would we support someone who will face being Liebermaned?

As for spending - you are right about that one.

The rest of your remarks, from a CONSERVATIVE standpoint, should be determined by the free market (Adam Smith and the Invisible Hand). We can start with the elimination of department of education and HUD - section 8 housing (like in Harmony Village and Balmoral in PTC).

You may want to look at the proposal for how to handle those 'illegals' before you risk putting the democrats back in control of congress.

National security and the economy might be worth peeking at too.

Vote republican.

What do you mean "your party"? I've never joined a political party in my life. I'm not much of a joiner, but I am a proud member of the N.R.A. If you think I'm a Democrat, you are mistaken. I vote for candidates from both professional parties, and for Third Party candidates the few times they are available. There are a few of us out here who don't pledge allegiance to a group and automatically vote a straight ticket. I consider myself a moderate because I don't take extreme stands on issues. The slick politicians who own Washington have got us divided, and we are falling hook, line and sinker.

You stated about a month ago that you voted for Ralph Nader? How in the heck does an NRA member who calls himself a moderate do that? That's almost like a Baptist preacher bragging that he's a male stipper as his side line job.

I can't stress this enough. We the people cannot put all of our faith in one political party or another. They, especially the Big Two, are huge machines that run on money- lots of it. They are like bureaucracies in that their primary function is survival. They extend their partisanship down to local politics, where it doesn't apply. I don't care if my town's Electrician is Republican or Democrat, just keep the one stoplight in town working.
Two is company, three's a crowd. The last thing the Big Two want is a Third Party to gain power. They would ban all competing parties if they could. They want the voting public split about evenly between them. Then, they rake in the lobby money and point their fingers at each other when something goes wrong.
They would like to make voting a straight party ticket mandatory. It already is for primaries. Why can't we vote split ticket in a primary? Give me one good reason. There are not enough independent voters out here to cause them much concern. They have got the electorate hypnotized.

That is why I vote Libertarian at EVERY chance I get. If no Lib, I hold my nose and vote Repub.

The current political labels have become meaningless. The major political parties have more in common than real differences.

There is however a bright light here in Georgia. A quick look at the ballot will show Libertarian selections for most major state offices. What a refreshing change it would be to have people in office who want to rein-in the growth and expansion of government.

We do have a choice. All politics are local.

Except this time it won't work. There are many good-looking, articulate, sensible-sounding Democrats out there that deserve your votes.

Problem is that when these blow-dried yuppies get to Capitol Hill they will be under the control of the old school Democrats - Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. Then they will get advice from Ted Kennedy and John Kerry. And if the Demos actually win enough seats, these cuties that just got elected will take their marching orders from Speaker Pelosi.

Are you ready for that?

When you hear the tone, you will awaken from the trance, with no ill effects and no memory of being hypnotized.

What is "all due respect"? Must mean there is none, here. Vote for the person running, not the stupid party. Split your vote.

When a neo-con spends all my money on the rich and has a higher deficit than anyone else in history, he deosn't get to call himself a conservative. A vote for a third party is a wasted vote, so logically, Conservative Democrat (who used to be a Republican) McGraw will get my vote and everyone I know says the same.

is paid for by the Committee To Elect McGraw.

Guess we won't be seeing much of you after the election will we MostConsiderate? Go play in your own county. Have a good day.

Conservative Democrat = Liberal Republican

And no...I'm not voting for Westmoreland.

Thanks, guy. I got so mesmerized by that flying ying yang thingy, I lost track. I yeild to you, sir.

Conservative Democrat = Liberal Republican
RIGHT ON

Maybe I'm just dulled by the message. With BOTH sides talking about the Demo's taking over, I just tune it out anymore. Sounds like a lot of wishful thinking to me.

Thanks for snapping me out of it and sending him packing.
Meow = Roar

Man, don't let mainframe see that.
