Sorry, but if us RINOs leave then we take 70% of the money and funding with us, so you think the tea party faction can run the entire Republican Party? If anything it was the tea party faction (the fringe) that caused some of our losses in this past election and even lost in this election (ala Walsh, West, Murdouck, etc). We are a divided party right now- so you want to unite or fight among ourselves? We fight then we’re screwed for years to come. However BS articles like this where you want to attack us within the party is just fine - we’ve held the power long enough with you and without you. Remember, Eisenhower, Reagan and Bush Sr and Jr were not tea partiers - all were centrist conservatives who compromised within reason.

When you don’t believe in nothing, you will believe in anything. What exactly is it that you want to compromise with them on?

Ronald Reagan was anything but a centrist.

It is the RINO Republicans who are the architects of this massive, horrendous defeat. Just as it was in ‘92, just as it was in 2008, and just as it was on Tuesday.

RINO Republicanism is clearly NOT a winner. Conservatism is. Compare Reagan’s victory to Tuesday’s disaster if you have any further questions.

I WILL NOT pander to illegal alien criminals.

I WILL NOT accept homosexual “marriage”.

I WILL NOT abandon the unborn.

I WILL NEVER accept the UN.

I WILL NEVER accept the redistribution of wealth.

I WILL NEVER accept gun control laws.

I have something that the RINOs and the hangers-on like Tokyo Rove don’t have: values. They will NEVER, ever change.

Romney had tons of money and absolutely blew it. You can’t buy an election with no ideas. If you want to win, you have to make a deal with the tea party. They have the ideas, you have the money and experience. Now make it work.

BS! Over the last 50 years, you RINOs compromised us to the brink of Communism. You have all the principles of an alley cat and the Marxist Rats have exploited it every time they needed to. Establishment Republicans are like a football coach with a 1-9 record. As Donald Trump would say: YOU’RE FIRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am really glad of one you RINOs decided to show yourself in a post.

I have a message for you. 2010 wasn’t about your politics or your money. 2010 belongs to the Tea Party and you know it.

Obama outspent the Republican Party almost 2 to 1. Now, I will admit that we have no idea where a lot of that cash came from; but, it happened and they raised more than you and outspent you.

We had GHW Bush and he gave us Clinton. We had GW Bush and he gave us Obama. I just bet you will run Jeb Bush and only God knows what that will bring. But, Jeb is a contingency plan and that brings me to my message.

You Rinos try to move the Republican Party to the left and all the money in the treasury will not save you as a Party.

We have all watched your version of Compassionate Conservatism or whatever goofy crap you can come up with to explain your power base and lack of Leadership.

Don’t go there. Because, if you do, this is one Conservative....and yes, I am a Conservative, that will leave this Party and work openly against you and your leftist twins the Democrats.

I have worn the Republican moniker for a lot of years and I have worked countless hours to get Republican Candidates into Office. I have Raised a few dollars and made a lot of calls.

But, some of the hardest working individuals I have ever met were Tea Party folks that came in and helped us vote in Conservative Republicans. God Bless them.

Hmmm, let's reverse roles for a moment on this one.

Whenever, the social-issues "base" of the party has threatened to pull out, we've heard the RINO reminder: "Where are you going to go? The Democrats?"

So...perhaps it's time for the social-issues conservatives and the tea party to unite as a solid coalition and ask the RINOs: "Where are you going to go? The Democrats? The Libertarians? The Green Party?"

We'll let you stay as trench foot soldiers & be the ones expected to eventually compromise your principles, whatever's left of them that is, for a change...

Wow, I don’t know what to say to your disgusting, ignorant comment. However, bashing Allen West alone should be enough to get you booted from FR in my opinion.

I can’t stand RINOS. They are worse than b/c they are SPINELESS! I say let then leave the party, SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN, or either we leave. Either way, I will no longer be part of a party run by Democrats or Democrat Lite. Don’t threaten us with money cause after you gave us Obama, NO ONE is gonna money pretty soon.

NO COMPROMISING WITH COMMUNISTS, NOW OR EVER!

Not so sure that Reagan and Eisenhower wouldn't consider themselves Tea Partiers, today.
