Both parties will continue to shift left as long as the entire country continues to shift left.

That's fine. Just know that your faux-principled obstinance is only contributing to the leftward shift, and doing absolutely nothing to better your community, state, or country.

That's what we've been doing for 7 or 8 pages now. The only candidate that can possibly oppose what the democrats are doing, are republicans. Some of them won't, some of them say they will and still won't. But some of them will. And reality says that's the best you are going to get.

This board complains all the time about “RINOs” failing to represent them but dunk on libertarians that choose people that better align with their core values.

If you only ever vote for the lesser of two evils all you get is more evil.

"Because of Democrats" is a shitty selling point, uniparty person.


As a liberty loving conservative, why should I vote Murkowski?

This post/position presupposes that Libertarian candidates are viable and can win elections.

They cannot. There is no merit in voting for a candidate that cannot win.

I still do. I will never vote for a politician again just to beat the left and I have learned my lesson.

There are other Republicans running, and you are free to rank your choices.

Ah, you've been under a rock for 40 years. That explains everything! Here's a shocker for you: The republican establishment believes unsuccessful candidates didn't win because they weren't centrist/leftist enough.

Under your rock, you probably weren't aware that Republicans followed up the nomination of war-monger Songbird McCain with verified leftist Pierre DeLecto Romney.

When an America First candidate accidentally won the nomination and the presidency, the establishment republicans clutched their pearls so hard that they allowed a fraudulent election to stand, so they could rid the world of that madness.

No, they love people like YOU, who support the uniparty.

Thank you for the status quo. You seem to want exactly what we have.

So, they love conservatives who vote for candidates that have an actual shot at beating them.

They don't love conservatives that throw their votes away by supporting non-Leftists that have no chance to win.

More brilliance!

You're no "conservative>" Youre a party sheep.

You display absolutely no independent thought. You're simply a bot for the uniparty.

Remember the uniparty?

Because I cast my vote to keep Dems from burning the country down, I'm not conservative?

So Rand Paul and Thomas Massie aren't conservative?

Yep, I'd vote for them, but not because they're Republican. Because I support their ideas.

Is Lisa Murkowski Republican?

But you just argued that someone that casts a vote for the lesser of two evils can't be conservative.

What do you think Massie or Paul would be posting in this thread if they had the time to burn? You think they'd be suggesting you waste your vote and help Dems get elected?

Who is the conservative she's running against?

Is she a Republican? It was a simple question you didn't answer.

WTF does that have to do with Massey?
