Republicans ashamed to have "Republican" next to their names on ballot

Great article; that does not surprise me in the least bit.
How lame!

only if ron paul would be ashamed of the republicans and denounce them, he probibly would have gotten more votes that away. the way he talks i think him being labeled a republican is not right
my vote will be for paul the libertarian not paul the republican

Ron Paul's platform for the most part is traditional Republican. It is the majority of the Republican Party that has lost its way. NeoCons....
Maybe they should leave the party and let Ron build it the way its supposed to be ;)

I agree with that! Who cares what the label is, what do they stand for. In my humble view, people that need a label along side a candidate are to lazy to look at the individual issues.

Have a good one:s4:

WELCOME TO THE SPIN ZONE...or P4B ZONE.

Valid point....I'd just as soon see if their democrat or republican than to have to actually look at where they stand on the issues. And people wonder why we're limited to a two party system.:rolleyes:

Have a good one!:s4:

Actually I strongly disagree. Too many Americans vote on party line as opposed to what a candidate stands for.

See republican on the ticket and watch how many people run to place their check mark o the democratic ticket.

Remove politicial affiliations all together and watch how many people might actually LISTEN to what people have to say.

I am not sticking up for this guy, I am saying I don't think any political party should be listed, EVER. Forget parties; let's get back to actually informing ourselves with what the candidates stand for instead of just picking a person because of the party that's listed next to their name.

There are a number of people on this board alone who would vote Democrat just because the candidate is a democrat and they believe they will stand up for them. Really what people shoudl be doing is listening to candidates; reviewing it against that person's past voting record and career history and weighing it against the opposing candidate.

But what the hell am I thinking? Responsible voters? LOL...
