You really have to be kidding. A republican is the only one I know that can turn a $250 surplus into a 1.2 trillion dollar deficit while running the economy into the worst recession since the great depression. When was the last time a republican balanced the budget?

Reason I ask as did is, try to remember who Billy boy worked with to balance the budget and pay off some of the debit. But then blew it later. It was not his party.
Do you really want to believe there is a genuine difference between Democrats and Republicans? The only possible difference is that Democrats throw out a socially liberal bone every once in a while. The only "liberal" policies Obama has enacted has been for homosexual rights. Everything else has been conservative republican policy. Not current conservative republican policy of today where they don't give a shit about this country they are just trying to loot as much money out of the country as possible before it goes down and they move to their Dubai property. I am talking about conservative republican policy from the days when they still cared about this country. Even his most hated by conservatives health care plan was written by the Heritage Foundation and previously enacted by a Republican governor.
We are only allowed to vote for the people the corporate money allows us to vote for. They play good cop bad cop as far as these candidates go. Informed conservatives act outraged by Obama so that uninformed liberals feel good about supporting him even though his economic and foreign policy actions are the same as Bush's. Uninformed liberals hear that Rush Limbaugh hates it so it must be good. Meanwhile Rush's proclaimed hatred of it is simply to get liberals to accept it, and to spur the hatred of uninformed conservatives.
Obama is the second best republican president of modern times, second only to Bill Clinton. He has done more to enact Reagan policies than anyone else. Conservative God Ronnie Reagan wouldn't win a single Republican primary today.

back ta NY and Rocky. Who was NYS last conservative governor??????
If it was not for George Wallace, Tricky Dickie would have never got in. IMHO Giving us G. Ford that beat Reagan in the primary leading to more down hill yet nice guy that never should have been Jimmy Carter. So now Reagan got in.
in my life time as president
Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, are the ones I liked. With Bush I and II along with should have went to jail Bill Clinton as just ok. the rest
So who was the last conservative republican NYS governor, it was long be for me
Nathan Lewis Miller
that won over
Al Smith only to lose it to
Al Smith
