You’re very clearly overly-emotional when talking about this subject.
McCain and Romney were indeed moderate - I didn’t say the GOP needed a moderate candidate, they need to find a candidate with crossover appeal that can generate the energy needed to pull enough mushy moderates over into his/her column to win the purple states.
Right now, “true” conservatives like Palin, West, etc will never get closer than Romney did to the White House and would likely lose is a worse manner when the final totals came out.
It’s just the reality of the time. sorry if that doesn’t jive - well actually not sorry - with your worldview but it’s the absolute truth whether you want to believe it or not.
Sarah's been bombshell by the left, the media AND by Romney, rove,....another reason I won't vote rino or for a sudden conversion candidate. (Praise The Lord my eyes have been opened by...).
I want a Ted Cruz or someone who is a fighter and not afraid of the media. The left throws out lies all the time. If our candidate can't stand firmly and speak the truth that sometimes hurts, then they need to do something else. Fighters like Chris McDaniel, fight for what is right. I have NO respect for these metrosexual phony candidates and there BFF’s on the other side of the aisle. They have shown there true ugly face.
That's exactly what he did as governor.
And while we are fighting amongst ourselves and both sides of the GOP say “my way or the highway”, the Democrat leftist coalition realizes all they have to do is watch the GOP tear itself apart (again) and they’ll return to full control.
Great paradox we have there. If the right wing of American politics was as good at the actual political game as they are forming circular firing squads, this country would be in great shape.
When Mississippi happened, a line was crossed. If the rnc doesn't make this right with Mississippi, I'll bet Cochran loses. You will have conservatives voting for the democrat or not voting at all. We Conservatives have been the abused wife for a long long time, and we have had enough. When McConnell and Boehner make public statements attacking the base, they made it clear we belong outside the tent. If you've been paying attention, the base is ready to bolt and join a third party or we will stay home like all the other people who don't vote and say all the parties are corrupt.
So you’re angry and in your anger, instead of convincing people that your views are correct you’re just going to quit, go home, and guarantee a Democrat/leftist coalition majority for all time.
Gee, that’s smart. Unfortunately this is what FR has devolved to these days.
