[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll be voting for the dem nominee most likely to beat Comstock. WP endorsed Wexton, supposedly more likely to be able to work with both sides of the aisle, more moderate/less polarizing. I like Helmer, especially what he did at the gun show, but we really need moderation. [b]Too much extremes on both sides, which is why we're in this mess.[/b][/quote]

I disagree, I think there is mostly extremism just on one side. The Republicans have gotten nuttier and their party has basically no ideology or principle right now. Reagan would be a moderate Democrat in 2018. [/quote]

Uh, no.  No he would not.  And I would counter your statement by saying the liberals have gotten nuttier - and that's an understatement.[/quote]

Sorry, I don’t want someone who can “work with” the NRA. No Wexton for me.[/quote]

I want someone who can work with the Republicans to reform gun laws and their enforcement. Gun Culture is so ingrained in the US, change will have to come in small, bite-sized pieces, unfortunately. I feel Wexton could accomplish more than someone who is just running on this issue. Believe me, I would love to see radical changes, but that just isn't going to happen and no progress will be made by electing someone too far left on this.[/quote]

Wexton barely even tried though. Seemed like she was phoning it in, hoping to win on name recognition and endorsements. She strikes me as lazy and establishment.[/quote]
