19. I think you don't get it.

Why do you say that the voters have "marginalized" the Republican party when over 40% of Americans voted for McCain? EVEN with Palin for a running mate?

I would RATHER have Republicans in a cabinet than in the Senate. They cannot "filibuster" in a cabinet position. They literally have to work FOR the President.

Any Republican who would take a Cabinet position is saying to the world "I WILL DO EVERYTHING IN MY POWER TO FULLY SUPPORT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION".


I have no problem with such a Republican.

I think you are too angry at the party as a whole to accept the idea that some Republicans can be an asset to our nation, because they are good, competent INDIVIDUALS.
