Santorum is really self-righteous, I AM THE ONE.
Do any of these guys believe in climate change?? That really worries me.
In an October 2007 interview, Paul held that climate change is not a "major problem threatening civilization," stating "I think war and financial crises and big governments marching into our homes and elimination of habeas corpus -- those are immediate threats. We're about to lose our whole country and whole republic! If we can be declared an enemy combatant and put away without a trial, then that's going to affect a lot of us a lot sooner than the temperature going up."[167] He declined to name any particular environmental heroes and affirmed no special environmental achievements other than his educating the people about free-market solutions rather than "government expenditures and special-interest politics".[167]
He has voted against federal subsidies for the oil and gas industry, saying that without government subsidies to the oil and gas industries, alternative fuels would be more competitive with oil and gas and would come to market on a competitive basis sooner.

Again, he seems to have state rights and free market ideas that could overlap with protecting the environment...

It depends on the state. Some states will only allow registered voters in the Republican Party. But some are open to Democrats and independents. I'm not sure what Georgia's system is, but I won't be voting in the primary. I will vote in the general election though.

Why not? It gives you two chances to win the election.ahlycotc wrote:ResurrectionRooney wrote:It's always seemed somewhat exploitable to me, the Primary system, why not have a blatantly Democratic candidate run for the Republican ticket and encourage all Democrats to register as Republicans and vote for him in the Primaries.
