Hard to do while you independents claim to be conservative but then put the pure socialists in power by voting for Obama.

At least the Republicans are not voting for Obama, you guys are.


That is the real reason independent canidates have a hard time getting popular, they can't seem to get behind the least evil when it is the most important thing to do.


Take McCain, no he was not the most conservative person in the world, I had a lot of issues with him myself, but you independents would not vote for him and instead voted for Obama. Obama has done more damage in his first year than McCain could have done in 20 years and yet you guys still could not get behind him.



You can't always get what you want, but sometimes you can help stop the worse things you don't want, and for some reason, you guys can't understand that concept. Like your attacks on Palin, while it is good to consider things like if letting the people of Alaska own oil, it is wrong to say you would never vote for her when she is head and shoulders more conservative than anyone else "right now" you could name as having enough National popularity to win a National election.


That means you would rather the true socialists win.
