[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4014918, member: 45773"] I've said for years that party is more important than the person. People in TX oftentimes vote for democrats because "he/she was the better candidate" or "he/she is a conservative democrat". Well, that may be. But when the democrat is elected the party owns them, they make the party stronger and they defy the party at their political peril. The party can control election funds, the party can force them into a primary at election time, etc... The two major parties are not, despite what a lot of people say, the same. They may share some traits like being unable to control spending and a few other things. But in terms of social issues they couldn't be further apart. While democrats will rally around their candidate...see HRC, BHO, Biden, Maxine Waters, etc... All horrible people and disastrous for our country, republicans won't. Basically because they're generally too principled. Republicans are masters at making perfection the mortal enemy of good enough when it comes to political candidates. [/QUOTE]
