Its not going to be easy taking the Senate, so I want the most electable candidate possible to win, that way we can focus elsewhere this fall.
Exactly. I wish I could channel Bill Buckley and remind you that we need to support the most conservative candidate that can win. If you were starving on a desert island with nothing to eat but a half loaf of bread, would you complain that you don't have a full loaf and not eat it (and starve to death) or eat it? What I'm saying is, half a loaf is better than no bread. I support Thompson, and I really don't think that PPP polls are very reliable since they're a Democratic pollster and have been giving inflated Democrat numbers all throughout this election cycle. But it still makes me nervous. Thompson helped pass the first welfare to work bill in the nation and did a lot of other great things as Governor. Why would people be calling him a RINO or a squish now?
