That's nice, but there aren't enough conservatives here to make it work. You can't post something and then, maybe, 3 days later get one response. It;s like talking to yourself.

Feels like the old squeeze play Eric.

It's funny you should reply because I actually put in a part that said "if you want to see an example of how conservatives can post in here without causing trouble, please do a search for cookie's posts". Seriously, I had it in there but pulled it because I thought it would raise more questions. But yeah, I am saying it now.

Ok. Now I feel guilty. I'm not Jewish, but I'm big on guilt. I could hold my own with any Jewish mother in the guilt department. >>hangs head<<

I support Obama and will vote for him. He is a little inexperienced but I think his judgment and smarts make up for his lack of experience.

I just hope he favors his conservative inclinations. And there is nothing wrong with that. A conservative Obama is a perfect politician.

Viva le Obama.

Why not just let them post what they want when they want and ban them if they get insulting nasty?

The same way the should if any liberal gets nasty.

The chances of this becoming a "pro McCain" forum are remote at best,
based on the majority views expressed here. The owner of the site,
like the owner of anything else, will run his property as he sees fit,
but the very best way to discredit ideas and opinions deserving of such
treatment, such as McCain and Bush support, is to examine them in
the light of day, not to segregate them in their own ghetto.

A scary prospect, as in their innate smugness, ghettos are the deserved consequence of their inhabitants.We certainly wouldn't want conservatives to have to experience(even symbolically) non-preferential treatment.

In my opinion, the repub posters who want to come here and discuss actual political issues, are hardly the most pressing problem in the 'election forum'.
