Republican Debate

I had the privilege to sit and watch the NH Republican debate held at UNH last Wednesday. First was a reception and then we walked over to the Whittemore Center and found our seats. It was certainly an interesting time as there are several candidates who are scary and people support them. By scary I mean they have some scary points of views, ideas, and philosophies. I happen to know whom I will be voting for and now I have a second choice, but will the public and Christian community as a whole come out to vote and vote their values and not what they think is "electable." I happen to dislike this term as people are "electable" because we elect them and nothing else. I have talked with people who are concerned they will be throwing away votes...take this into consideration we go to heaven someday and stand before God, and when he asks us to give an account of our lives- we can always say, "I didn't want to throw the vote away so I voted for someone with less principles and virtue." I think not. I happen to be a one issue voter- is the candidate pro-life - because a society that wipes out entire generations is well, no good can come from that. www.operationoutcry.org
