We The People love it!
There you have it, endorse a 'moderate' like McCain, Romney and other losers. Why would any grassroots donor support losers like them?
They will coalesce early, and fine tune until the machine is ramped for ‘16 and ready to win.
Sounds so good but then there's reality; they can't win without conservatives and conservatives will not support a loser candidate.
The Tea Party will bicker between ourselves, fail to watch the clock, or coalesce EARLY enough.
Projection pure and simple. The Tea Party is a local phenomenon and is much more adept at that level. Your diatribe is insulting to the fine, intelligent and hardworking Tea Party organizers who know the ground game much better than any of your Beltway fakers.
This will, of course, make us LATE to the game, deprive us of pooled money and resources, which depletes both way too soon.
There's a solution to that. Fall in line behind Cruz!
Cruz doesn’t need to directly campaign for any named candidate. He can show up in any state and make speeches that articulate conservatism and Tea Party issues. That’s all he needs to do.
He does not need to endorse any specific candidate. It will be known to the grassroots by association which candidate would follow Cruz’ lead.
His statement was designed to diffuse the hostility of Senate moderates and RINOs. But they know he is still a threat to them. But because of his statement they cannot raise funds against him. He has neutered them.
Cruz can show up in South Carolina and espouse all the Tea Party issues such as the flaws and failures in immigration reform and the lunacy and deception of the Global Warming Scam, both issues of which Graham supports. People will know then that Graham is not a candidate that Cruz is endorsing.
Cruz can show up in Kentucky and espouse Tea Party issues of budget and debt and voters there will know that he’s not endorsing McConnell.
Everywhere Cruz shows up and speaks Tea Party issues, voters will know who he does not endorse and will figure out themselves who the best Tea Party candidate is to follow his lead.
Which is an excellent reason for the Republican't Party to pull its collective head out of its collective ass and stop attacking conservatives.
I am convinced that Republican primary voters, the last best hope of man, are also incapable of self-government.
Powerful...I hope it gets to where people can see it...
Thanks Cincinatus’ Wife.
Do you think Henry Ross Perot was a co-conspirator with Bill Clinton? H. Ross claims that the first Bush sold out POWS in Vietnam.
Then become a union member...Fight from the inside...Some union members lean to the right on some issues...
I watched the video, and thought it was good.
It isn’t about jobs however. At least not enough.
Jobs.
Jobs.
Jobs.
America is not making enough. China is taking over the world, and we are importing everything in America, from China.
Bring back JOBS.
Otherwise it’s a good video, but Ted please stand up and take a stand for American jobs.
H. Ross would seem to have been on the right side of a lot of questions.
Just saying...
Not sure he was on gun control, but on a lot of other issues he got it.
There must be a better way to predict the next Presidential selection - so I looked at the “last name” attraction quotient.
18% one syllable:
Polk, Pierce, Grant, Hayes, Taft, Ford, Bush, Bush.
54% two syllables:
Adams, Monroe, Adams, Jackson, Tyler, Taylor, Fillmore, Lincoln, Johnson, Garfield, Arthur, Cleveland, Wilson, Harding, Coolidge, Hoover, Truman, Johnson, Nixon, Carter, Reagan, Clinton.
28% three syllables:
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Van Buren, Harrison, Harrison, McKinley, Roosevelt, Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Obama. That's all I got;)
No I don’t. Perot was just a crank who got rich off EDS government contracting. Nothing otherwise particularly extraordinary about him.
But Perot tapped into the anger of blue collar GOP conservatives when they figured out Bush was a phony. Their vote was a protest vote.
And you think Obama’s groups like ACORN and OFA are capable of self-government?
“A third party for 2016 elections will guarantee a Clinton win.”
While I perfectly understand their frustration and I share it, they either don't know or care to know that primaries are where it's at. Primaries are the keystone to getting conservatives elected at all.
In many states, these "independent thinkers" can't vote for any GOP primary candidates let alone the conservative ones......they can vote only for candidates on the loser third party of their registration choice.
I would suggest that this coming mid-term election is so vital to the survival of our nation that these concerned freepers re-register just as fast as they can. Then vote for the most conservative candidate on the GOP ballot.
States with closed primaries are numerous. Type in "closed primary states" in your favorite search engine to see if your state is included in the list.
Also remember that in open primary states, the lefties can cross over in a concerted effort and flood the votes for liberal GOP primary candidates.
All this is why voting in a primary is essential if conservative candidates are to be victorious.

No, people in KY falsely think McC is of the “Tea Party”.
You DO realize the Establishment does not need the Tea Party the way you seem to believe.
We grassroots voters have been formally and officially kicked to the curb in exchange for the Latino vote and the disenchanted Democrat/Independent & Womens vote.
Boehner has announced as much, and the RNC is moving with the Boehner crowd in the House together with the liberal senate, toward Amnesty.
The intent is to marginalize conservatives until they go Third Party. (Never to be heard from again.)
I intend to hang with Cruz, Lee, Paul, Gomert, and Jeff Sessions types to hear how we beat the odds in’16, and avoid splintering again, divided up between too many candidates.
Also, how willing will conservatives be to let their man move to the center to attract votes needed to win a nomination?
I like the line at the end....send conservative reinforcements to the Senate!!!!
