Did anyone listen to the debate? RSB made a great point:If you vote for one of the two big parties despite not liking what they do, they can ignore you, because you're staying in line and giving "big government" your vote. If you do not vote, they can ignore you, because you're letting others make the "big government" choice for you (which is even better from what I perceive as their perspective; "Yes, little sheep, let others decide for you... We know better, after all...")
There's only one way to give the DNC and the RNC a big bloody nose and have them both sit up and take notice, and that's to put someone in office who will not support Big Government, someone who will govern based on our founding principles and from the rock-solid basis of our Constitution.
I don't trust Ellsworth as far as I could throw him. (Turn)Coats says all the right things now, but once he's in office, we're stuck with him for six years no matter how he votes. His vote raped all of us back in 1994 and they say rapists are unable to be rehabilitated. I'm not bending over to make it easier for him.
The only way that RSB "doesn't have a chance" is if people who say they want change vote for more of the same. The shift of power back to the People has to begin somewhere. Let's start a revolution, a rebellion that takes place wholly within the voting booths of our state and in a completely peaceable manner. Let our weapons consist of our voices and our opinions, that our firearms be unnecessary.
Rebecca Sink-Burris has my vote and I encourage everyone to follow that example.
Blessings,
Bill
Rebecca Sink-Burris has my vote so far, from what I got from the last debate. I need to do some more research before I'm really comfortable with it.
I will vote straight GOP. No matter what you mix crap with, it is still crap. You mix crap with steak the end result is still crap. You mix dems with GOP you have crap. You mix libertarians with dems you have crap, you mix libertarians with GOP you have crap.

Repost of mine from another thread because there are 3 of these going at once.
I think that people that are voting for the 'lesser of two evils' are burdened with the false assumption that the Republicans want to defeat the Democrats. That is absolutely not true anymore. I haven't forgotten the contract with America that gave the republicans the house and senate and president. What happened? Nothing. Everything that they tried was defeated by Republican infighting and a willing Democrat minority.
The goal is to accumulate and maintain power.
That's all.
The reason for Coats coming out of retirement is the existing republicans know he will not change anything or upset the status quo like Hostettler or the any of other Tea Party candidates would have.
Yup, did that last time and got Clinton.
But I hate Coats, so I'll probably vote RSB...
Yet I now look back and think that Bill doesn't look that bad. Never thought I would say that in my life. But next to Obama....

I still have research to do. Politics is one area that I like to try and form my own opinions. This will actually be my first time voting. Besides the last presidential election. To me all politicians are nothing more then puppets. They can give a good speech. Vote for bills that you may agree with. Still what is really keeping them from screwing us over. Track record only goes so far. Politics is a dirty vicious game. All you can do is take a leap of faith and hope they do as promised. There is no guarantee.
Heck clinton looked good next to bush by the end of his second term.
