I was pissed at Christine over the pot issue.
You said Dino was a moderate on many issues,so what issues was Dino a moderate on? What issues made you decide to vote for Dino despite his opposition to abortion, gun control, same sex marriage, amnesty, obamacare,tax increases and so on
So you do not like her pro-marijuana stance so you voted for a guy who opposed abortion, gun control, same sex marriage, amnesty, obamacare,tax increases and so onI was pissed at Christine over the pot issue.

She encouraged the vote to not even come up for debate in the Washington house the first time. She sided with the big corporations who where against it but she was also a DA who put people in jail for petty drug crimes. She did say to me in 78 that pot was no worse than booze.
A better question, I think, would to be ask if it's time for the Democratic party to flush the druggies, the sexual perverts, the criminals, the nanny-statists, the bigots, the baby killers, and the unproductive parasites.
Of course, the answer is obvious. If they did that, there'd be nothing left of the Democrats.
So out of frustration for the the incumbent Governor stance on marijuana who probably pretty much agreed with you on many far left issues you decided to vote for someone who is politically the polar opposite of you and whose stance on marijuana is much worse than that incumbent governor's? I can't help but think that would be like me voting for someone like Dianne Feinstein because the the incumbent in my state who share most of political views was hesitance on allowing concealed carry.
I have been waiting my whole life for pot to be legal. The fight has ben won and if I had to sacrifice one self righteous biddy then so be it. Rossi was also against it but said the will of the people will decide.
I like Fienstien.
It is time. Time for the GOP to stop being extreme and crazy so we can return to a two party system and not a one party and the crazy rednecks anymore. It is time to govern GOP. Something you have not done at the national level in years. Get with it.
Then too in the congressional elections of 2012 the vote there was relative even, 59.6 million for Democrats, 58.2 million for Republican candidates. A difference of only 1.4 million votes. Much closer than the presidential election where President Obama won by 5 million votes. Now just think about this, there were 3.6 million people who voted for Obama and then voted Republican for their member of the House. Makes me want to say HMM. Perhaps the 2012 vote says more about Romney than the Republicans and their social conservatives, but who really knows.
far left folks such as yourself.

Of course you do,you are far left like she is.

I would wager that those 5 million more who voted for Obammy just didn't bother to vote for the 3.6 million difference you speak of.
In fact, you can assume that was the problem in 2010 and could be the Dem's downfall in 2014.
Btw, I see the Prez's negatives are better in two polls on RCP today.
And, that Perdue may have screwed the pooch in your primary--what a douchebag .
His remarks that surfaced today, from five years ago slamming Cheney and linking the war to Haliburton, renews the "Amash" coalition IMV.At least we know who to blame for the mess we're in, don't we?
I see two parties for the long term.
I also see multiple wings in each party.
I see new realignments being forged, such as Rand Paul with his isolationism attracting DEM liberals, in swwpite of DEM talking heads.

I believe now more than ever that it is the best Elite/RINO, at this time Kasich, v. the best Libertarian/TEA, at this point Rand .
I see that Cochran hit back at McDaniel in Mississippi.Yeah, I keep watching that. I keep watching to find out if the president can get to that magic 45% mark. But it seems every time he gets just above 43%, he falls back down again. Obama's approval rating is one of the indicators I base my senate predictions on. I haven't made up my mind yet which primary I will vote in. I think I owe Sam Nunn a vote for his daughter and she will have a primary opponent or two. I also was hopping David Perdue would be her opponent. I'll just decide later.
What is the conservative obsession with labeling people "far left" as if it's an insult?
Isolationism will never be overwhelmingly popular as can be evidenced by the President's foreign policy polling results. Does that mean we need to get involved everywhere? No, but we do need to be decisive...
Putin and Linc have lost count of the sum total of policy positions that the GOP takes on each event that occurs .Isolationism will never be overwhelmingly popular as can be evidenced by the President's foreign policy polling results.
Does that mean we need to get involved everywhere? No, but we do need to be decisive...
Your statements say the President has been an isolationist and I disagree.
You then say that this foreign policy has not been overwhelmingly popular;
I would counter that zero Presidents would have been more popular due to today's politics.
Putin and Linc have lost count of the sum total of policy positions that the GOP takes on each event that occurs .
The best thing we can do right now is export more energy to Europe.The President lacked a comprehensive policy or response with regard to recent international events (e.g. hands off).
This usually doesn't end well...
I'm surprised to read this from you.
How would you have put his "hands on".
Are you speaking of Syria as a recent event?
The best thing we can do right now is export more energy to Europe.
Since that would help Red-State DEMs, it won't happen.
The inability of Congress to function in a timely manner, 5 weeks for the Ukraine aid to say the least, has finally caught up
No Syria is not recent, but the situation in Crimea is. I'm not in favor of exporting any of our strategic natural resources. Europe needs to develop its own...
But you still won't say how you would put your "hands" on Crimea .
Not me.
I correctly recognize that—common misconception notwithstanding—the political opposite of “right” is not “left”; tbe opposite of “right” is “wrong”.
