Some of you must think that two Illegal Aliens named R2-D2 or C-3PO are registered voters. In local elections my maternal Grand Father's vote was worth a 10 pound sack of sugar or else a 25 pound sack of cornmeal. Times were hard back then.

If the Tea Party wants to win elections they would do well to emulate Congressman Davey Crocket of Tennessee who plied his electorate with fresh corn liquor and dried T-Backey.

Almost 150 years ago the GOP chartered trains, called "the cars" at the time. The cars job was to carry voters from the state line as far as the cars could travel in 12 hours, but still allowing time for the train riders to disembark and vote in every whistle stop and town.

As a condition of continued employment the Yellow Dog Democrats required every public employee and their family members to hold their filled in paper ballot up to an exterior window in the polling place. This was so that the local powers that be could sleep at night, knowing that every school teacher, jailor, janitor, clerk and garbage man voted 'correctly'.

If the Tea Party wants to win elections then they better learn how to beg, borrow, and steal votes themselves. :mrgreen:

So let me see if I have this right Kay. What you are saying is that all political races should be decided and awarded to the most dirty and underhanded candidate in that particular race. You apparently want a no holds bared slug fest to the bitter end and he who has the most money, connections, dirty scoundrels on the payroll, can afford the most executions of the competition, and can basically throw the most dirt and lies upon his competition should by all means win the race as the most competent of the candidates, right? Meanwhile an honest individual who wants to run a contest on policies and do it fairly in an open and above board manner is in your opinion a loser and should never be elected to any public office whatsoever because he doesn't roll around in the mud like the democrats do, right?
