You’re sort of right, except I believe Palin will be the first one of those two, to hold the Presidency.

Just saying.

Palin. Then Cruz.

This is why Rand Paul won the poll. It was overloaded with younger voters.

Oh.

Thanks. I stand corrected.

My (big) mistake.

Millennials are bussed from colleges to CPAC.

The legalized pot pacs are well organized.

I watched Sarah very closely and was actually very pleased with her performance. The choom gang joke was not nearly as funny to the kids as it was to us geezers, but needed to be said.

That said, Palin did sort of mess things up, by bailing out

That did cost me a pretty penny. If she runs this time around, I probably won't be contributing; but I have contributed plenty.

JimRob said he wouldn't endorse him, and then he did endorse him.

Did you happen to notice how quickly Ted Cruz endorsed John 'Wayne' McCornyn after he won the Senatorial primary in Texas by more than 50% this past Tuesday? Cruz recognized that Cornyn was the last man standing, and he also knew and does know what that means. Ted's quick 'endorsement' was a shot across Cornyn's bow and John knows that. Get it? Dang, I sure hope so. It truly is very simple.

I absolutely despise all the RINOs, every one of them. Nevertheless, when dumbass voters leave us with no other choice then, guess what, we have no other choice. The Democrats have become so openly evil as to make the Devil swell with pride.

"Cruz found himself in the Senate GOP conference’s doghouse again recently after colleagues learned he signed a fundraising mailer for the Madison Project, which is trying to knock off Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky’s Senate primary. "

Jut gave to the Madison Project.

Doesn’t really make a lot of difference what conservative’s differences are or who the “conservative” side picks. The person who will be running AGAINST the demodummies candidate will be picked by the MAIN STREAM MEDIA. My only hope is that America will wake up and vote in someone with a STRONG conservative side to rid ourselves of the communists currently in control.

Amen to that

JimRob said he wouldn't endorse him, and then he did endorse him. He says this website is not associated with any political party, but that is simply not the case any more. The GOP knows that no matter who they set up, FR will endorse him.

Why is that a sin? JimRob realized that the choice was another term for Obama or a Romney and probably still agonized over his final decision. Anyone out there really think that we wouldn't be better off today if Romney had won? I know JimRob is now declaring "NO MORE RINOs" and I think it's a good stand to make and it sends a message. The problem is getting those who control the nomination process to give a flip about any messages the People send. Right now, it looks like they have the same contempt as the Dems do. We are likely screwed and will probably help dig our own graves because we don't have the same dogged energy and endurance the Dims do - they will fight like rabid dogs for the slightest edge; and we put on a strong front until we don't have what we consider the best deal - then we tuck our tails and let the Dem machine roll over us.

I agree on all counts - it's nice to see someone thinking instead of "feeling".

There is a certain point where your responses are simply kissing backside and my responses are unwelcomed criticism of FR, even though they are the conservative truth.

Your “truth” comes off more like shrill hissing and name calling. FR went strong for conservatives during the primaries. To not be able to tell the difference between that and GOPe is silly (being polite here). Your rant is nothing more than friendly fire and does more harm than good. It is pre-primary season, you acknowledge FR did the right thing during primary season. So shut yer yap and help move forward during this time. Once primary season is over, you can weigh the choices and make your decisions and positions know . Going out of your way now to focus on Your differences which are not relevant to this stage of the process leads me to wonder if your motive is not to hurt conservatives in the primaries.

And that us the conservative truth back at ya.

Really? You honestly believe that bullcrap? Then why did MkJessup try to get a conservative booted from this conservative forum just for being more conservative than he was? Because he’s a republican, not a conservative.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2920626/posts?page=596#596

And then when I asked him if he was proud of what he had done for conservatism, having seen JimRob himself call the guy a pr**k, he went silent.

I believe that you are bellyaching about an election season issue during primary season... that you are part of the problem, not the solution... and that name calling and pointing fingers is a horrid way to pull people together.
