Republicans don't make this huge mistake. What many lack in knowledge and decency they make up for in conviction and commitment. That's why they win. They don't whine or moan defeatedly about how awful they are, and they don't fail to march, much less fall back in the face of...nothing.

How about: Go find your candidates and post their bios for all to check out?

For those who haven't taken a good look in their political mirror, it's past time.

You still need to learn about your candidates. And don't forget to dig up some dirty truths about their Republicans opponents. They all have some these days. If nothing else, just willingness to join Republican caucuses is evidence of bad character and bad intentions.

I have seen and heard NOTHING
Harsh? like i give a shit....clock is ticking
to get on a ballot signatures are required
The time frame is very condensed

a campaign is not something you pour in a pan, add water and stick in the microwave.

ponder the irony if we have those specials and the gop ran unopposed....
