The last thing Republicans need is to run a liberal

[Sid]

After a trouncing in the ’06 mid-term elections that hoisted Democrats back into control of both houses of congress, the Republican Party and true partisan constituents are desperate to make certain that a President Hillary or President Obama never becomes a reality. The prospect of such an event is so frightening to both Republicans and conservatives that some are willing to do whatever it takes to keep it from happening, and rightfully so.

The last thing this country needs is a defeatist socialist hate-filled Democrat in the White House. But if Republicans think that they can unite the Party behind a liberal candidate without the principled core of the Party on board, they are sadly mistaken I’m afraid.

If a candidate does not stand for the unalienable right to Life, personal Liberty and the individual pursuit of happiness in a free-market economy free from federal tyranny and constant attacks on marriage, gun rights, religious expression and common decency, what makes him any different from today’s Democrats?

At this point, I think you will be better off with a conservative Democrat! All the best!........

You don't understand the Democratic Party for you to say that.

Not a chance even a moderate would be picked by the Dems.

But I do understand enough about politics to know that a Rep president and a Dem house will mean nothing will get done at all for 4 years. You are better off to have a right leaning Dem so as not to cause a stalemate and at least address some of your national issues. all the best......

I repeat, no right leaning Dem can get out of the primaries.

So far, Republicans (http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/281#) only agree that they dislike all of their choices in ‘08. They have not yet begun to consider what if anything, to do about it.

As of the October 12-14 USA Today/Gallup poll, Republicans have not yet picked a candidate to unite behind. Sure, it’s early in the primary process and unlike the DNC race which only has one legitimate candidate, the Republican cup runneth over with lack-luster options. But despite the record number of choices, the field still appears void of any real good choices.

In terms of support from Republican voters, Giuliani (http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/281#) is maxed out at 32% - Fred Thompson is running a distant second at only 18% - McCain is hanging in at 14% and Romney is still stuck at 10%, right where he’s been for a year and $50 million dollars now.

The “unsure” number is at 9% and Huckabee and Paul are well below that. Brownback, Tancredo and Hunter poll so low, that they are tied only with an un-named someone else, at or below 2%.

Honestly, until all these so-called second or third tier guys get off the debate stage, we are not going to get a good look at the real contenders. There just isn’t enough time for any single candidate to shine. These no chancers who think they are helping their party by sucking up valuable air and limelight, are just fooling themselves and their supporters.

I’m all for the democratic process. Anyone should be able to throw their hat in the ring. But these guys have had their hats in the ring for a year now and have never broken above 5% within their own party.

So they are running where?

For what?
