    Has anyone else gotten the letter from the republicans begging for more money? I got one and it didn't say do not reply so I did. Told them they will be getting no more from me. Evidently, they are nonbelievers, because I got another today. Junk bin!

    Makes for good kindling for the firepit. Just like the letters I get from the NRA

    Wife got one.

    Sent it back, "A party that does not support it's President, does not get support from me"

    Soooo... Those among you claiming you'll "NEVER" vote republican ever again. Does this mean you are all in agreement that when Ted Cruze's election cycle comes again you'll just let Beto have that seat in the Senate? What simply brilliant idea! I'm amazed I didn't think of it first!

    Sounds like a bunch of quitters to me! Yes, massive reform is needed. Perhaps a new party is formed. Perhaps Cruze moves to that party. But to suggest "NEVER" is pretty short sighted.

    In his 8 years in Senate, tell me all the pro-gun bills Ted has authored?

    Primary elections Doug.

    I’d never say I won’t vote for a Republican. As a political orphan, I can say I’ve never donated a dime to any political party or candidate.

    I wish we’d do away with all political parties completely.

    Carry on ......

    Who, or what party I vote for, is really none of your business. Last I checked, I don't need or require your approval of permission.

    You vote your way, and I'll vote mine. Capisce?

    Cruz is very pro-gun and 2nd Amendment, but none that I can recall.

    It was a loaded question I already knew the answer to.

    He proposed a bill in 2019, it was mostly anti gun, did not REPEAL a single thing. He is another all talk, no action on 2A. His bill would have just jammed up more innocent gun owners.
