2006&2008 elections - republicans were abandoned by conservatives.

You see, WE don't walk in lockstep with the party, WE are not sheeple like the obamabots, WE actually hold the party responsible for their deviation from conservative principles.

Who's this "we" Kemo Sabe? IIRC, you supported Scott Brown, who many call a RINO, and has certainly deviated from conservative principles.

In 2000 and 2004 Democrats were abandoned by liberals.

You see, that argument easily goes both ways.

The idea that conservatives did not turn out in 06 or 08, or that they didn't vote Republican is just plain false. the GOP lost in 2006 and 2008 because they got their asses kicked among moderates.

But I will fill you in.

There is a huge difference.

The left wingers follow their leaders like sheep because you all get in line and follow their marching orders. Whether it is right or wrong, you will follow them to the end of a cliff. Look at the few Obama followers that are left, they still believe in the fool who has done nothing but make things much worse and has failed his party miserably.

Do you know your liberal leaders do not believe you are smart enough to make a decision on your own? They do NOT think highly of their base at all.

And thanks for admitting the above mentioned people are so successful. Gosh I bet that eats at you they are millionaires over and over.

Advice for you. DO NOT follow people who are not successful because then you become one of them.

Following Obama is like waiting to the poison to destroy you. He is that infectious to you and your party. No wonder many dems do not want to be seen with him. With a track record he has, no wonder.

And you call him a leader.

Leaders actually give you a reason to believe in them. Obama is a miserable failure and I wonder why anyone with their right mind would acknowledge they follow him after the failure he has been.

Run from him like so many others have.

He is a LAME DUCK WALKING.
You completely missed the point of my post. Nice work.

Reagan was a leader and was well trusted by both sides of the aisle.

Obama is NO leader and simply cannot be trusted for his word. He is a total fraud and has proven it to us.

Obama could not fill a cup of tea for Reagan correctly.

Funny you say this because Obama himself has said he would like to be like Reagan. Or did you not know that also?

Obama would do well to pretend to be like Reagan. Reagan is mentioned all the time as one of the greatest Presidents ever. Obama, well he is down at the bottom with FDR and Carter as the all time worst.
Reagan, give me a break. I guess you forgot about the Iran/contra affair where he helped arm Iran, now our enemy. Or how about how he armed Saddam. A man who used what he got from Reagan against his own people while Reagan ignored it. Yeah great President.

Iran was our enemy before Reagan was elected as well. I guess he thought they'd be friends with us, as they released the hostages on his inauguration day.

Who's the voice of the GOP?

It's a toss up between big corporations and Pee Wee Herman!

Yup, not to mention what Reagan did with the funds he got from selling the arms to Iran. Sending the funds to the Contra Rebels. A group whose actions were so heinous and horrific than Congress banned the funding of the Contra rebels UNANIMOUSLY.
