I see no evidence we are the majority any more. Maybe we are the real RINO’s, maybe we should all become independents and simply vote for the best candidates even if they are minor party

I hardly watch Fox anymore. Personally, I would rather get my news from interwebz.

Faux News has always sucked, and now they are just as liberal as the rest of the channels (not that they were all that conservative to begin with)

He had ‘electability’

That was some BS wasn’t it?

I would bet if Newt had debated Obama the crap would have hit the fan, especially about Benghazi.

Mitt just grinned while 4 Americans died.

Fox lost the “conservative” construct years ago — it was a ploy to garner viewership — they are all washed up - fake - and no different than CNN or the rest of them...

I don’t even watch them anymore — a big waste of time...

The whole USA MSM is a waste...I think RT News has better coverage - and that’s coming out of Moscow!..or maybe the BBC...

US News sources cannot be trusted or listened to...

The party is divided up among a number of factions. First, there's the GOP-e. This consists of the talking heads and professional mumbletypeg players ~ the Roves for example. Then they have their well-wishers ~ Coulter, et al, and a trick bag of potential candidates like Christie, Rubio, and that crowd. We know who they are.

Finally they have followers ~ that maxes out to about 15% of the party faithful.

Second, we come to the Defcons, Socons, Fiscons, Traditionalists and Constitutionalists ~ they're the other 85%.

In this group it is expected that people will also have links, if only philosophical, to the other coalition partners.

There's no such expectation with the GOP-e.

If we have to dump those people, then so be it. I'd start at the top with the immediate purge of Preibus and his friends, and work our way down through the state committees ~ every one of whom who voted for Preibus need to be purged and the sooner the better.

We can give them an easy way to start ~ Preibus can simply admit to an extramarital affair with David Petreaeus to get this ball rolling. One scandal ties into another, and pretty quick you get the party cleansed of the losers!

You crybabies should stop whining. Do you really think that Foxnews was THE problem? FoxNews was the ONLY station that kept hacking at the Benghazi story until some whistleblowers started to leak useful information. Then, they just put it on TV for seemingly 24 hours a day. This allowed a good third of TV viewers to learn about it. Let me tell you, without them, there would have been 0 mention of Benghazi collectively in the media. Without Fox News the Left would have a total monopoly on their propaganda. Are there any other sources for information? sure there are. However, how many people actually get their news from those other sources? Not many. It would be back to the time when there were only 3 channels and all of them liberal...except worse, because in those days the media kept their partisanship very subtle. Today, they are to the left of Castro. So yeah, keep blaming Fox News if you feel like it. I will continue to support it and encourage the people who work there.

You’re right. Start with Preibus for certain.

I’m watching Fox News right now...they just had a commercial that said BENGHAZI in big, bold letters and a teaser about Justice Janeane’s show tomorrow. Think any other cable outlets are discussing Libya? We need Fox news.

But we need to let Fox news be the CENTER of the political spectrum (which it is) and form a far right network to counterbalance MSNBC, the gay network.

Maybe before we go off half cocked we should look at states where we were successful, like my state of Kentucky for example.

There are 515,00 more RATS registered in Kentucky than Republicans.

State turnout was 59.16% of registered voters.

Romney 60.51%, Obama 37.81%

We won a House seat in a primarily RAT district by defeating a 3 term RAT incumbent (Chandler).

The only RAT who won a House seat was Yarmuth because his opponent didn't have any money.

“But we need to let Fox news be the CENTER of the political spectrum (which it is) and form a far right network to counterbalance MSNBC, the gay network.”


This is an important statement that warrants copying All. This rhetoric about “far right” betrays who the RINOs are - every time. It demonstrates a lack of understanding of principles.

“Far right” is jargin of the left. RINOs, like liberals think that being moderate magically makes them the most correct as though both sides were divided 50/50 with equal amount of error. How prosaic.

Yes, I’m “far correct”. I’m extremely correct. That’s because of I have my moral compass given my God 2,000 years ago.

Sure we could finally start a new party. BUT why should we?

Sure... Let's just stand around kickin' that dead horse... that'll work...

You need to read up on the Reagan Revolution and Limbaugh's 'See, I told you so'. That was at the end of the Conservative's 40 years in the wilderness, and everyone believed there were no Conservatives anymore. Look what happened.

They are there, and more numerous than anyone imagines.

If you think Fox News was the problem you need to broaden your vision.

I just wish they would get rid of Shep Smith and Juan Williams. They are both idiots...and libs, IMO.

I wish Fox would drop "Fair and Balanced" and just be "Fair." There isn't balance OR fairness on any other channel.
