I would rather work on cleaning the Republican Party from the inside, as people seem fired up to do, than to jump on whatever third party (or in the Constitution Party’s case, fourth or fifth tier) dejour there is..
As a friend said recently, there is very little Constitutional about the Constitution party, they crossed the line long ago from being anti Statist to just being anti State.
A party with the likes of Chuck Baldwin, John Loftin, Michael Petroutka, et al, have very little to appeal to Conservatives.
It is probably easier to change the Constitution party than the Republican party. If we had Hannity, Levin, you, and Sarah Palin on board, we could make it a truly conservative party based on the constitution.
“A party with the likes of Chuck Baldwin, John Loftin, Michael Petroutka, et al, have very little to appeal to Conservatives.”
How about a party with the likes of Rudy, Mitt, Linc-chafee, McCain, Grahamnesty, Bush, Schwarzenegger...etc.???
AMEN! Amen, and AAAAAAMEN to each of your points.
The stupidity of the American people so influenced by the media, into believing the Republican party is made up of rich blue bloods, when the majority of folks are average hard working middle class folks with no voice on the street, unlike the MSM,
and who have to work for a living, unlike the MSM,
who have precious little time for protest, unlike the MSM,
who don’t act as rent a crowd for every little leftist issue someone has, unlike the MSM,
who haven’t forgotten Ruby Ridge, WACO, the twin towers, radical Muslims, illegal immigration, the second amendment, demographics, etc, unlike the MSM,
and above all love the country, the Constitution, the founding fathers the founding documents, and are fully aware of the founders sacrifice and that of every single man and woman who has laid their life on the line for the United States of America since before the American Revolution, unlike the MSM.
I am not entirely sure what lost this election, but have a feeling that turnout of a certain group of so called conservatives, had something to do with it. The election eight years ago with record turnout, was so close as to appear stolen. This one was a blowout by comparison. The Republican party platform has always appealed to me, what became unappealing was the acceptance of the RINO concept where candidates could be what they wanted to be and the platform be damned.
Sorta like John McCain calling himself a Republican when he should have been run out of the party. One thing for sure, being a mavrick finally caught up with him, last time that happened was 2000 in SC.
