What they don’t understand is that the Tea Party is just
beginning to get a grip on the GOP, it’s a matter of
demographics, the more young Tea party reps we put in
place the sooner they will be the majority of the party.

That day IS coming.

To: tet68; All

I dissagree...

The Republican party, its leadership, most of its elected officials, elitist backers have completely succeeded in moderating the parties political representation/ideology and its political direction...

Some of us who are active in the Republican party in our locals have tried many times to re-invigorate the grassroots/originalist/literal Constitutional interpretations for many years since the direction has been set by those very establishment people in the party...

It has not been very successful, and only to a point of staving off the inevitable...

I heard someone yesterday bring up something thats been on my mind for a few years now, and that confirmation of what I have been chewing on during that time only emboldens me to hope a true conservative party can be implemented to challenge the liberal/progressive Democrat and moderate/copmpramising Republican parties...

The GOP does not represent my political views and interpretations anymore...

I do not believe I am an independent, that is a feckless term used by those who are not very politically savvy, more lazy than anything...That is my opinion...

I used to be against splitting off from the Republican establishment as an initial weaker position to take at that time...

I no longer believe it is...There are people ready to jump as I am from a political organization that is failing on ALL fronts...

And this is key...It has to be deliberate...The castigation/exploitation/lip service being stingily paid out to the grassroots/TEA Party movement makes more sense every day now...

November 2010, was a good attempt at trying to send the last good message to the GOP to get its act together...They (GOP) failed to fully appreciate the civil tone in that message and its rejection of it tells me and hopefully a few others that the GOP does want to diffuse, dilute and control what should not be controlled, but welcomed...

I think it is time to reject the GOP, and do our bet to form up a viable political party that can welcome those who wish to return to original Constitutional values and interpretations and take the Conservative movement to the next level...

I think it would immediately put the Republican party into the 3rd and weakest position (politically) and they would have to immediately caucus with us and our position of strength...

We tried to hold off a split, and there was never going to be a good time to do this, but if it ever was a time, it has to be now, we have to get it organized, get some heavy hitters to lead the charge, and get it to where the next election cycle will be the true rejection of moderate/liberal/progressives in our current and feckless representative republic...

Just my opinion...

We need to have people who wish to pony up to have no fear of running as a Conservative anymore...Not be fearful of the already established liberal media and its political hacks...

They are betting we do not have the will to fight them anymore...Well, there is a lot more to fighting than just civil discourse, and that will be their biggest mis-judgement...

I do not believe we’ll win the WH this cycle...So we had better start now getting those Senators and Congressmen noticing the real reason for this election...

Another summern of Town hall meetings, puting their incumbent feet to the fire, and letting them know they are replaceable...

Because if their response is to demean our Grassroots/TEA Party positions and intent, because “You do not know how things work in D.C. and your local state capitols!!!”

Well, hells bells, apparently the way things are working now, ain’t working...

I’d just assume fire them all...I think we can find enough “qualified” people to replace them...

Again, just my opinion...
