re: #237 Sharmuta

My opinion is the Goldwater conservatives would come back to the party, and we would gain membership from others who lean right but are turned off by the so-cons. I met some republicans who voted for Obama, and was specifically told it was due to creationism and anti-science.

I mean this with no disrespect, but are your friends that voted for Obama pleased with the results? I cannot understand why anyone that calls themselves a Republican would have voted for Obama. McCain ran a poor campaign and even I have problems with him, but I cannot see myself voting for a man with Obama’s record and tendencies. McCain is not a religious nut, a creationist nor anti-science, is he?
