I have no doubt you speak the truth, the GOP needs to be dimantled, destroyed, and rebuilt with true conservatives. All those a$$ clowns are worried about it holding thier committee seats and so forth, I’d love to see them poor and homeless honestly.

The GOP must be cleaned before you can even think of defeating obama.

Well, I think I’ll return the discussion to the main point.

If you are a conservative candidate who has beaten the establishment candidate and are running against the Democrats in the fall, beware of the RNC and the other national committees bearing gifts.

They will offer to help you. Gifts of money are OK. Gifts of professional campaign managers need to be looked at with a jaundiced eye.

Anyone who has read Palin’s book, Going Rogue, will get a good idea about how these professionals—both those you inherit at the state level and those sent in to run things from DC—will betray anyone who isn’t part of the RINO establishment. Or just take a look at the guys McCain sent to NY to help out Rick Lazio against Hillary in the 2000 election. Either they are stuck on stupid, or they WANT you to lose—or both.

This kind of thing has deservedly earned the Republican Party the name of the Stupid Party. They would rather be in second place and take a share of the pork from their Democrat masters than be in first place working for honest leaders who will take away all of their pork and perks.

You may need the help of professionals. But you have to be very, very careful who you let on board. In fact, better to have dedicated and intelligent amateurs working for you than crooked professionals who want you to lose.

Yeah the Dems are evil. But we’re talking about our “moderate Republican” `friends’ who stab us in the back? So, which is worse?

From that experience I can tell you that the Pubbies at the HQ in D.C. would rather have a Democrat win a given district than have a pubbie up there who would embarrass them by refusing to follow the party line.

When the party line is anything other than adherence to constitutional principles, it is their duty to refuse to follow it! We have to be rid of the career politicians and replace them with true public servants, who go back to live under the laws they pass.

RINOS, if elected in 2010, will help guarantee an ObamaCRAT victory in 2012.

It’s “germane,” NOT “germaine.”

I made the same error, but MS Word caught it before I posted it.

The RINO's because they sell the tickets to the evil Dems show.
