This is but a small part of a well written article that advocates abandoning the republican party and forming a new conservative tea party.

This is pure political suicide.

More better we work to remake the GOP than to hand the Dems/Marxists/anti-colonialists the entire country.

BTW, I'm one who suspects that Mitt likely won the fair election; and that election fraud is what flipped the count. (No proof, just a strong, strong suspicion.)

We have four years to ready a party for 2016. The republican party is a partner in disaster with the democrats. We got here with two parties; only a third will get us out.

Forget about the Presidency......for the time being. Start small, start with city councils, mayors, state reps, even go for national congress if doable, but third parties often waste time and money by blowing their wad on a phony, publicity stunt run for the White House.

We need the regional party infrastructure in place for......

Conservatives will eventually have to go Third Party for representation

A strong 3d party with conservatives would actually win elections...because the Dems and GOP would be splitting the liberal vote

Its time for a little political maturity from all...and realize...you are not going to change the GOPe

Instead of abandoning the Republican Party right now, try this. Create a Tea Party Caucus (or a similar name) for those GOPers who don’t like the Boehner/Cantor/McCarthy ruling clique and want real change at the top.

Use this caucus to either sit out votes in Congress which the Republicans would normally win in the House, or just vote present. Let the Dems win a few at the expense of Boehner and company. Then see if he will give up the leadership of the House Republicans for someone who has a backbone.

Another tactic would be for just enough Tea Partiers to LEAVE the GOP, so that the vote count in the House would be even between the GOP and the Dems (or one short for the GOP).

Since the Dems are not going to come over to the Republicans on a vote, the Boehner group would NEED the Tea Party Caucus votes to pass anything, or even to survive the next two years as a viable force. They don’t like unemployment as much as any one. Too many perks to let go.

The Tea Party Caucus (TPC) would be the power-broker of the old GOP and the foundation force of a new, more conservative, principled GOP.

Call Boehner’s bluff. He hasn’t had any balls in the past, so wht makes you thing he’d suddenly grow a pair in the near future. Get rid of him any way you can. The GOP needs more than a house-cleaning. It needs a purge of the TOP.

And if you want to really hurt the House GOP, have the TPC vote with the Dems a few times on legislation. That would emasculate Boehner’s power like nothing else.

If you’re going to play hardball in politics, you need a very big bat, a very big cup, and the balls to use the bat to protect your balls, while knocking off those of your opponents.

To rewrite an old high school cheer from the 60’s.

The Tea Party has the spirit,
The Tea Party has the guts,
The Tea Party has Boehner by the nuts
Pull, team, pull!

You know that Gallup poll where 23% of Republicans had a positive view of Socialism?
http://www.gallup.com/poll/158978/democrats-republicans-diverge-capitalism-federal-gov.aspx
You know how in the Republican primaries Romney had a bottom floor support of 23%?
We need to find these people and kick their asses out of the party.

TEA Party for me now. Get your house in order GOP and maybe I’ll come back, maybe. But if you can’t even field a candidate and beat someone like hussein, with his obvious flaws and vulnerabilities on literally every issue... Then you, GOP, are either completely incompetent and or in bed with the rats. I’m done with you until you prove otherwise.

We need to take a lesson from the Communist party. How many people actually thought that the democrat party could be so completely taken over as it has been?

The real problem lies in trying to compete with ‘FREE’ stuff which is resulting in the collapse of the entire system. Then we (Americans) will beg to be rebuilt by anyone offering more ‘FREE’ stuff, regardless the price.

I believe there are conservatives on both sides of the aisle waiting for true leadership. Lose “Tea Party” as that name has been derided by the lefties and taken over by undesirable elements of the right and in my opinion is not treated with proper respect by the media et al.

Simply call it the “Conservative Party”. By doing so conservatives of all stripes will join. Names have meaning.

How does one register as a Conservative?

For some time I have said we need to throw ALL of the incumbents out and replace them with non-politicians. The problem is that once they are in office, they see how much money they can make and how much power they can get, and they soon become politicians. I have suggested to the Tea Party Patriots that they write a contract and have ALL people running for office sign it. It would state things like:

I will either introduce a bill, or vote for an existing bill that states the following:
(1) Each member of congress will serve a maximum of twelve years.
(2) Earmarks will be ended.
(3) Each bill will be voted on in the order it is introduced. It can be voted to delay the vote for later.
(4) Each bill will be voted on without any amendments added. The only one who can change the bill is/are the one/ones who introduced it. (This would end pork barrel amendments)
(5) The government will be funded by the numbers. Each agency, department, etc., will be given a number rating and funded from #1 down. The military will be the only #1.
(6) I will vote for the Fair Tax. (It has been introduced into the house and senate, but neither leader wants it, so they aren’t putting it our for a vote. One person in the house and one person in the senate decide if a bill is voted on. If you haven’t read about it, it voids ALL federal taxes and replaces them with a federal sales tax. You pay your taxes when you buy something. The rich pay more, because they buy higher priced goods. The illegals will pay it when they buy stuff. It won’t change the price of goods. What you pay $100 for before the Fair Tax is enacted, you will pay $100 for after it is enacted. http://www.fairtax.org/site/PageServer)

Others can be added. At the bottom it will say something like:

If I fail to do the above by ??-??-????, this will be my resignation, effective on that date.

If they don’t do as promised, they are out.

If you agree that this is a good way to get change in congress, contact the Tea Party Patriots and your local tea parties to write a contract for ALL politicians to sign before they run for office. This could also be done for state elections.

I do not believe the Republican party can be saved.

Not with people like McCain, Graham , and others running it.

Boehner is as useless as teats on a boar hog, He has been Speaker for a couple of years now and Nancy Pelosi is still running the House.

I am not leaving the Republican party , it has left me.

The argument is getting a tremendous boost with the news that Speaker Boehner is purging fiscally sane folks (real conservatives) from the financial committees in the House.

My question for the past 2 years has been, is Boehner, incompetent or on the other side? Boehner is now answering that question.

And the RINO's are committing political suicide. The only question is, can the GOP be taken over by the Tea Party or does the Tea Party need push down the rotten door of the GOP and send it to the Whig heaven for failed political parties?

This is STUPID!!!!! What is wrong with those here on FR who believe they can create a perfect, pure political party with sufficient numbers to ever win anything?

We already have about 40 "third parties", isn't that enough? If you can't make anyone of these work, another one certainly isn't going to do it.

Stop and think!!!!

You can see why the GOP ignores it’s base. The rank-n-file will eat whatever they serve them.

Can't you just imagine this was the scene with Obama and his Commie staff after stealing the election through voter fraud- while Conservatives blame Romney, argue, point fingers, blather on about forming a 'new party', who to run in 2016, and try to figure out how to suck up to minorities the 'next time'?
