I am not concerned about the Tea Party, or Christian voters that are so weak in their commitment that they would abandon their conservative ideology out of indignity, and spite. Personally, I don't believe the poster on here that wants to scare the conservatives with the idea of Graham leaving the GOP. I have more faith in my conservative ideologues that they will not let one stupid act of congress hinder their purpose of regaining a strong America. If Franklin feels that his demonstration is going to change the congressional vote, he's kind of mistaken. It's already over. And conservatives won't sabotage their own party out of spite, period.

If conservatives/Republicans get mad at the budget vote then they are stupid for not understanding that there was no other way. If Franklin and the Tea Party doesn't understand that, the I have given them more credit than they deserve. How much of a chance would we have of getting a Republican elected president if the Republicans cause a shut down? How many independent votes would the Republicans get if they defund Planned Parenthood? No, the idea is to pick your battles for gain, not principle. Principle will only doom the country right now. Like any war, there will be collateral damage.

At any rate, who is Franklin Graham to the average person, anyway?[/QUOTE]

The Villages on-line paper had a large article concerning Franklin Graham's bus tour. It was inviting Villagers to go to the Franklin Graham meeting for $30 on the bus.

Obviously, people do care about him and his message about leaving the Republican Party.

Hillary wins!
