Re: Election Day Comments

I would take a Blue Dog over any Republican. It's a hard pill but if you don't have a majority you can't implement your agenda. Hardcore Conservatives fail to see that and happy about that. Viva la stupid.

Name some hardcore conservative agenda items that were implemented when the Republicans were in power on a national level. I can't really think of any besides tax cuts.

I'm more than happy to have a Conservative as our Governor. You can spin it any way you want. At the end of the day we won this time.

Perhaps we can lower the business taxes and get even more of the businesses that are fleeing from the North. If we can drill off our coast we'll have cheap oil that we don't have to buy from anyone and get money back from what we sell, just like in Alaska.

That's actually a good question. May ask you, what are the hardcore conservative agenda items? Outside of the social issues, I'm not familiar with many, other than tax cuts and smaller government.

None of significance because no one is as stupid as a hardcore conservatives. You will never see that agenda see daylight and reason is because no Republican is going to stick out his/her neck for it. The numbers aren't simply there and allusion to that is all smokes and mirrors. For a big country with so many tugging vested interest the idea of a small government is impossible.

You won VA, I'll give you that...NJ is a tried and true blue state so I'm not worried about that. We really won NY 23 which means Dems have one more solid blue guy in the house. Like 12thMan said, it's a toss-up.

Your liberal agenda has again clouded your vision.

United States presidential election, 1980 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

United States presidential election, 1984 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No other president has won like this in recent history.

He did raise taxes out of necessity and spent a shit load on his war toys without actually paying for them...that's really hard core conservative agenda without the fiscal restraint and limited government part. You're not walking, you're crawling. You should know better, being on your knees is conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman.

What you said was, "that no one could run and win on Conservative principles". You are wrong. Someone did, and won by landslides. Congress controls spending. Reagan's Congress was Democratic. Clinton didn't get to put in his commie agenda. His Congress was Republican.

Name some expensive toys Congress didn't pay for. The last time I checked the Missouri was taken out of moth balls. SDI was never implemented? At the time the US and the USSR were reducing their nuclear stock piles?

You're a real piece of work Saden. You liberals sure are a hateful breed.

Why do conservatives constantly hearken back to the Reagan era to prove their point about the enduring quality of conservative principles. Reagan was for his time. Lincoln was for his time. So forth and so on. Today we live in a completely different climate. Demographically the country has evolved and continues to do so. The globe has changed for that matter. Politics are more interconnected and simply require more compromise on some key issues. I guess what I'm saying is the world isn't as black and white as it was, say, twenty or thirty years ago.

My main issue if with Republicans, and some liberals for that matter, they tend to view the world in terms of absolutes. They don't debate shades of grey, only black and white.

What I said was no one will run and win on a hardcore conservatives platform this day an age... you know, kick the illegals all out of the country sort of principles, go back to the gold standards stupidity, get rid social programs, etc, etc. I was skeptical of your reading skills, now I'm even more skeptical of you comprehension skills.

Freeze, the jig is up, put your hands up buster or I'll shoot!
