brigadecommander 25-Sep-12, 07:33	we have lost our Speaker...... i respect his decision. But I'm disappointed. Perhaps like Icarus my ambition exceeds our abilities.Without his stabilizing influence and common sense i don't see how this works.I know of no other Conservative with his portfolio. And without a Republican Leader able to control his caucus, it would descend into gridlock. As we can see in the real World. Unless someone else has other ideas i think this project comes to an abrupt end. Again i understand and respect the speaker. He is just irreplaceable.
chaz5 25-Sep-12, 08:32	... there are other reasonable conservatives.
brigadecommander 25-Sep-12, 09:13	really who? who? i don't see any.
chaz5 25-Sep-12, 09:16	... you may have a different opinion about their worthiness, but it might be better to pick an able adversary from among the usual conservative posters ... or abandon the idea altogether.
illinawek 25-Sep-12, 10:10	I'll be conservative for a week.
brigadecommander 25-Sep-12, 10:56	chaz; please inquire. I am not very popular with 'other' Conservatives. The 'henny and vickoid' type are unacceptable. If you can find a moderate conservative, let me know. Then i will continue. If you find someone i will of course be friendly and respectful. Maybe zorro knows one.He is in several clubs....J. PS; IT WILL TAKE MORE THEN A WEEK.Perhaps several months. Serious experiments usually do. If you are Liberal you can't play a Conservative.

chaz5 25-Sep-12, 10:58	... traction doesn't seem to be happening.
brigadecommander 25-Sep-12, 11:03	i am prepared to go forward. I just don't know any Conservatives in our club.There are in other clubs like DOK.But we are not on speaking terms.Do you talk with him? Ask him.I am willing to to work with him.But he would have to join this club.
zorroloco 25-Sep-12, 11:03	bc i am in only one club. this one. as for reasonable conservatives, since william f. buckley died, they have become as rare as the california condor. i miss bil buckley.
brigadecommander 25-Sep-12, 11:14	Well unless someone has another idea we will have to drop this experiment. No big deal .My heart is not broken. Believe me! i will come up with other ideas. It would have gotten tremendously interesting though. I had planed to ask Zorro to re-introduce the 'affordable-care' act. And i bet we could have passed it. As there are no lobbyists to contend with. And as that was happening i thought a dangerous crisis over seas could be manufactured to happen at the same time. This would have tested all of us. Oh well.
