Thoughts of the day

I am almost embarrassed to be a republican. The pundits and the media have done everything possible to prevent Huckabee from becoming president. They have distorted his record. The Hannity's and Limbaughs of the world declared it a 2 man race when it wasnt. That probably cost Huckabee Missouri and Oklahoma. They continue to do it now saying its over when for a brief period on super Tuesday they said that Huckabee was back in. They kept him from getting fair time at the debates because they had annointed Mitt Romney Mr. Conservative.
The conservatives want that evangelical vote and the grass roots vote but when the most conservative candidate comes from thet group they say thanks but no thanks. We wont support you. We will portray you as a radical religous nut and try to thwart you at every turn. We will hope a big money cadidate comes in and says that he is a conservative and rally around him and trash everyone else. I feel let down by my party and the conservative base. I hope the rest of the American people can restore some of my faith in our political process by voting by the best candidate and not just doing what the media tells them today. I saw some of that on Tuesday.


And this to those of you who still rant about McCain and praise Romney. SHUT UP! You made this happen and if McCain wins its your fault. I'll vote for whoever the nominee is but part of me is hoping for a new grass roots conservative party to form. Because the supposed true conservatives have really let us down and along with the media have really done a grave disservice to our nation.
