| akuma587 said: I'm not offended in the least, but the word racism and Republican go in the same sentence way too often for the Republicans to just shrug this off like it is nothing. They shouldn't get themselves in situations like this in the first place. Its like Michael Jackson getting caught with another kid, or OJ having another woman he is dating get murdered. Even if you did absolutely nothing wrong, you sure as hell look guilty. @Kasz: Oh, you are absolutely right. Its all about the old guard wanting to keep their power within the party. But that is worthless if your party is going to keep losing election after election because you are still sitting around fantasizing about Ronald Reagan and America being a "Center-Right" nation. If Republicans want to live in dreamland, they are going to have a rude awakening when Democrats gain even more seats in the House and the Senate. |
Eh, i still think it's better then selling out your ideals to get votes.
I'd rather die by my ideals then be part of a winning side i didn't agree with. I once wanted to be a politican... until I realized that my stances were so far from what the two major parties believed in i'd never get a fair shot in either.
Sure i could go along and run as a democrat... and probably could of won some stuff too. Early city consoleship would of been easy since the city votes for whoever the tnion votes for and i've got an in with the local union. Building up from there would of worked pretty well.
But i'd rather not give up my ideas about fiscal conservatism and the like etc.
I hate the Neo-cons but i can actually respect the "going down fighting" mentality.
