If you think the GOP will listen to conservatives,
you should get out more.

You're right. The 'rats basically have no-one. Hillary's name gets mentioned a lot, but she has tremendous baggage. There's Bill, Monica, Benghazi, the association with the failed obama administration, missing files, all those people who have turned up dead around her and Bill, etc. etc. If the 'rats run her, she is completely beatable - if the GOP candidate plays hardball. (something they have failed to do, so who knows)

But other than Hillary, they've got no-one rising to the top. Who would want to? A 'rat challenger will first have to beat the Clinton machine (heck, just survive) in the primaries then run against a GOP candidate who will be holding all the cards based on 'rat "leadership" over the past 8 years. (again, assuming the GOP candidate comes out swinging) 2016 is not going to be a good election cycle for any serious 'rat up and comer to throw his/her hat in the ring.

The GOP isn't much better, a few names keep coming up. From what I can see the election is going to be the GOP's to win or lose. If they run Jeb - Bush fatigue will kill them. If they run another RINO the TEA Party will kill them. If they run a moderate or centrist trying to reach across the aisle in the election the 'rats will beat him/her. This is not a time for half-**sed half measures. Another RINO and the GOP is done as a political party. (they're d**n near there now) A lot of GOP voters are fed up with RINOs and wishy-washy wimp candidates. We won't vote for the 'rats, but we will vote with our feet - either abstaining or voting for the real conservative candidate, pulling votes away from a poorly chosen GOP candidate. You had better listen GOP - you can win or lose in '16, it is entirely up to you.
