I know full well the appeal that Pat Buchanan has with this forum. His message on our Second Amendment rights is unequivocally consistent with ours. There's just one problem, for you guys in never-never land out there -- THERE'S NO WAY IN HELL PAT BUCHANAN WILL WIN!!! NONE WHATSOEVER. PERIOD. END OF STORY. I really don't think there is anything compromising or inconsistent with our convictions to be politically pragmatic. As our buddy Rush Limbaugh so eliquently states time and time again, there's no glory in losing! What drives me absolutely nuts is that there are many many people (pro 2nd amendment, pro-life, you name it) that will go to the grave before they support somebody that isn't 100% on deck on that one issue (whatever it is). Most of the time, I even agree with them on that issue. This "glass half empty" mentality, however, may win them a place in heaven, but in the meantime, it'll be hell on earth. Let's get real and, if Bush is the Republican candidate, let's swallow hard and support him. Don't get me wrong. I like Pat Buchanan, but the guy is about as electable as Jesse Jackson or David Duke.
