This is a surprise to nobody but the RNC leadership.
If a third party splits the vote, Obama will get a second term. But I guess that’s okay.
Better yet, force the RINOs to form their own third party.
That's a sign that the present republican field is not good enough. With a good candidate the GOP will win no matter who the third party candidate is.
3rd and even fourth parties will migrate to the EXACT same positions on issues.
Better to have a pure Liberal in the WH then an impure Conservative.
We need to get down on our knees and thank God that Obama beat that bastard McCain.
Let’s wait to panic till a candidate is whittled out of this huge field. I think that the GOP has a vacuum of leadership right now and that everyone is just off in all directions. Having a single decent candidate will consolidate a lot of these 3rd part folks.
It could be called the slower train to Hell
It’s a hypothetical and meaningless.
It’s like asking, “Do you favor dogs not having fleas?”
Perot gave us Clinton but Bush gave us Perot. The Stupid Party still hasn’t heard the free trade job sucking sound.
If they cannot do what we sent them to D.C. to accomplish, putting off the tough decisions until after 2012 will do them no good as they will have no chance to get re-elected as conservatives will form a third party to finally get our agenda accomplished.
Yes, Obama and liberals will have more time in office due to this, as it cannot succeed overnight, but enough of the “vote for the lesser of two evils” BS.
Vote for a dem, you get marxism via the fast track.
Vote for a republican, you get marxism via the slow track, as they are determined to stay in office and will not alienate the parasites who want their handouts.
Vote for a third party and eventually that third party will replace republicans and this country can begin the long journey back to prosperity.
It won't happen overnight, but it MUST be done if the republicans refuse to do what is necessary, and they have so far done nothing of consequence other than signal that they refuse to do anything that my put their re-election chances in jeopardy.
We need more Teapublicans to run in the primaries.
Thank the RINO leadership.
That's what this whole article is about - sabotage encouragement from Rats/RINOs for Tea Partiers to form their own party or go to the libertarian party, and thereby split the Right and ensure a Rat win.
This is the problem - you've got Bohner up there, and he NEVER publicly reminds the demons that he HAS got the veto power. HE turns it around and says, aw, well, we're only one house, and the rats have got the Senate and the WH. Well, the Republicans have got the numbers in the Senate to prevent any chance of breaking a filibuster, so it would seem they've enough power between them to kick up a ruckus, but they are not doing it, at least not so anyone would notice.
Geez. I hope that is sarcasm. Other wise I will have to find a new forum to chat on. Maybe the Ron Paul zombies have something. I am sure it would be affiliated with "High Times" magazine somehow.
A 3rd party presidential candidate has to have a base of elected 3rd party Congressmen and Senators.
Otherwise he will have to buy votes from two parties.
Nope! Our Republican Rulers go back to D.C. and work with the Democrat Rulers to pass more laws and taxes to further their power over us. That's what the voters are fed up with. Our rulers use our tax money to buy votes. That's all they do now, buy votes. We have no leadership!
Where does the Teas stand on 'fleece' trade?
