This is the correct route. There is absolutely no chance of Obama being impeached and removed from office as things stand currently. If impeachment were attempted, it would backfire and give the Democrats solid majorities in both Houses in the upcoming elections. However, this realistic view will be ridiculed by the ignoramuses who will see the Republicans as caving.

We must not impeach Obama because it won't work and it will backfire.

We must agree to the Democrats budget because a 17% "shutdown" won't work and it will backfire.

We must agree to raising the debt ceiling because fighting it won't work and it will backfire.

Issue after issue we do nothing while the country is being destroyed.

How is that strategy working out for you smart guy?

The party-first crowd will never see the light, putting Duty in second or third place to “winning”. They always promise future opposition, but right now it’s “not the right time”.

Duty - if you fulfill it they will come.

“Issue after issue we do nothing while the country is being destroyed.”

Because elections have consequences. That’s a simple fact that some apparently can’t grasp. We conservative Republicans do not have the political power to accomplish what you and I want. Win elections first.

That is why I say it’s better to vote for 80% allies (RINOs who survive primaries—and we should definitely be trying to defeat them in those primaries) than stand on principle by not voting for them in the general elections. We have to build political power to control the agenda. That’s how it works, and the Democrats know this very well. That’s probably why they’re experts at turning out their voters, because winning elections is the vital first step toward doing anything! It doesn’t matter how good you are or what you want to do, if you don’t have the votes, you lose!
