will these "men" for whom 'party matters' now unite under the flag of Lincoln and Reagan and support the now Republican Mayoral nominee or will they use the reach and access they have to cast aspersions and create false doubt among their limited, but energized, audience?

Medlock said he didn't want to endorse Lafortune and is less interested in backing Bartlett. Good chance they will go "no endorse."

I will be at least as loyal to the 2009 Republican nominee for mayor as Dewey Bartlett Jr was in 2006 and intended to be in 2009.

I love folks who, rather than answer questions, refer to others perceived, related, shortcomings.

Translation: "I am not a member of the 'party matters' club and am not a real Republican." Which is fine, I just wish you would make it official and leave that party of Lincoln and Reagan

Reagan was once a Democrat.  He said that he didn't leave the Democratic party, the Democratic party left him.  The Republican party is trying really hard to leave it's mainstream members.

Not only was Reagan a Democrat, but once the head of a labor union. And if Mssrs. Bates and Medlock believe that, ostensibly, their party has left them from an ideological perspective (from their perspective, surly local returns would provide credence to this notion), then leave. and make no apologies for it

If you're going to judge my Republicanism, you need to post under your real name, so we can judge yours. Especially since you endorsed Wilbert Collins over John Smaligo in 2006.

Ummm....putting aside I wouldn't know "Wilbert Collins" if he sat on my face, will you please answer the very simple question being asked?

or are you a political coward?

I've given a perfectly good answer to your question, but you haven't answered mine.

I wonder why you're afraid to post under your real name, but I think I know who you are anyway.

Peculiar obsessions are a sure tell. If someone joined this forum and did nothing but post rants about the Great White Whale, we'd know he was Captain Ahab, even if he called himself DCtransplant. And likewise, when someone obsessively rants about Chris Medlock and Michael Bates, it's not too hard to guess.

Sock puppetry is hard, isn't it, Lady Recall?

By the way, should I address the DCtransplant sock puppet as male or female? Or have you decided that yet?

How is that perceived. You are asking if members of Party A will be a "good party person" and endorse Individual A when Individual A himself, endorsed a candidate of another party in the last two elections for the office Individual A is running for.

Bartlett has made himself scarce at Republican party events as well. You can't say everyone should form in line behind Bartlett when Bartlett isn't even there himself.

Exactly right.

If ever there were an argument for "None of the Above" on the ballot, Bartlett would be it.
