    Default Death of a party

    Just a note to let you know I enjoy the debate and plan to rejoin it if... Today I've been watching the US Senate debate the stimulus package and I'll admit I'm very depressed with the Senator from Maine and Pennsylvania joining in with the democrats. If this legislation goes down as it looks it will I will never bother myself with politics again for the rest of my life because I think the Republican Party is dead and the alternative is worse than death. America and the world are finished if my party dies and it's on life support. I don't know how to put my thoughts into words of how I feel but I will guarantee you that you will never hear from me again if this socialist’s bill goes down as planned. We are doomed, the world is doomed and the other 38 Republicans might as well clock out and go home and watch the end in comfort. On the other hand, if the Republican’s pull a rabbit out of their hats I’ll be back. I just can’t take pardoning a terrorist and the death of my party in one day.

    Well, I know this idea sucks, but you might look to see if there's another party that does think and believe as you do. I mean, it's not like you're the only one who has had it with the way the Repubs have gone. I mean, my dad's been a lifelong republican, least the the Bush run of things happened.

    If your party isn't representing you anymore, then find a party who is

    I disagree.....so long as you recognize that the guy from Maine and the guy from Pennsylvania are acting differently the party itself isn't dead, it's when they look like the rest of the Republicans that you write the party off......
    ...full immersion.....

    There is a party that thinks like you do! It needs convicted people like you in order to grow and become a more influencial source of contributing element.


    VOTE LIBERTARIAN for real change.
    If you continue to think the way you have always thought, you will continue to get what you have always got!

    A government big enough to provide you everything you need is big enough to take everything you have!

    Classact, I was in your shoes about a year ago. It took me a few months to figure out where I belonged politically. If you truly desire small government and more freedoms, I encourage you to look into the Libertarian Party.
