Haven’t the moderates already done enough to destroy the party???
The GOP’s fine with going to hell as long as they get to ride shotgun.
Dear Juan,
please ‘Jump Ship’.....we don’t mind. And take that vapid daughter along with ya.
Ah, yes, the “wise” D.C. Republicans versus the Elmer Gantrys at the grassroots who don’t know any better.
Too bad this narrative is the same one they used last time.
Republicans are a lot more complex coalition than this report makes things out to be. But it is a conservative party, and it will be going forward.
Be Seeing You,
Chris
If the GOP moves to the right and stands for grass roots fly-over-country concerns, it will strike a massive cord among the American people. Happy Sunday to you all!
Goes to show how out of touch the GOP elitists in DC are.
Frank Rich gave “approving nods”????
Well we better listen then....

Why don’t people like Mc Cains daughter just become Democrats? Then they will feel comfortable with the people who think like them.
This is the same old game that progressives have played for a 100 years. Socialism and socialism lite that your choices.
NOPE, socialism or liberty and the Constitution, that's my choice.
Wake up boys and girls!
When it comes to the ELECTION............
The conservatives WIN.
The “moderate” RINOs LOSE.
What’s complicated about that?
These Republican elite need to be replaced, how do we go about replacing them?
Last time I looked, most people support the GOP on these discordant issues, the issue is they don’t vote for these issues as a priority. You have to give them something to chew on like Obama-maniac.
Anyone have a big “FAIL” sign?

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: “If they make a mistake, I don’t want them punished with a baby.”
McDumbass and the rest of the GOP moderates are idiots. Social ssues like gay marriage, abortion, are just that: social isues that ARE NOT THE PERVIEW OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. They are states-rights, hot-button issues that political parties use to win votes.
The federal government, and likewise any presidential candidate, should be concerned with the defense of the country, border control, international trade and relations, Constitutional issues, and the like... policies that affect the entire country. For a candidate to keep addressing a social issue, let alone use it as a major campaign point, is a sellout move from day one which underlines the utter idiocy of the entire “compassionate conservatism” crowd.
Well, that certainly explains how John McCain became the candidate in 2008. I wonder if Frank Rich approves of this analysis.
The fact is, we are going to have a third party if these turds insist on keeping their jobs.
Unexpectedly high???? Maybe the party's finally getting the message that conservatives are PO'ed.
The problem with the Republican party stems from trying to “change” the core values of the conservative constituency.
What part of “core values” don’t they understand?
Juan McCain failed miserably because he was chosen by the MSM and did not and does not represent those core values.
If they keep trying to appease instead of standing up and fighting for what’s right, they will lose more of their base.
I can say without remorse they have lost me. I will not abide them trying to sell out my values for my vote.
Patriot, conservative.......Republican, thanks I’ll pass
