A pledge means nothing without a belief in and commitment to God. These piss-ants in DC have already shown that they have no loyalty to anyone but the highest bidder. Screw the RNC!

Let’s see which candidates sign this pledge.
Notice the article did not mention any candidates had signed it.

This appears to be a trial balloon intended to determine how GOP
voters react.

How loyal is the party to republicans, or Americans in general? If they were, why would they need an oath? They continue to have things backwards.

“Loyalty pledge. Heh.
Used to be only Democrats did that...”

So much for any pretense the Republican party stands for individual liberty and freedom of expression. Seems somewhat tyrannical to me.

The RNC hierarchy is panicking big-time because of Trump.

It's functioning now in full knee-jerk-reaction mode which is when mistakes are made.

This idiotic pledge thing embarrasses me as a Republican. It's biased, it's degrading to ALL the candidates, it's childish, it's stupid....and believe me, it's playing with fire in a variety of scenarios, all of them bad.

Impeach Reince Priebus....and I'm dead serious.

This is outrageous.

Will the GOPe candidates support Trump should he win the Republican nomination? That’s the important question, and I bet I already know the answer.

You can tell the corporate GOP is really nervous.

They could get the lobbyists to keep everybody rounded up.

Trump should pledge allegiance to god and country, everything else is second.

I would never sign a loyalty pledge to the disloyal RNC.

Why would anyone want to sign a pledge regarding the possibility of a Jeb or Mitt getting in.
Better they pledge to support the Republican voters and others betrayed by party elites.
Anyone going after all the Republicans that were elected on getting rid of Obamacare doing nothing?

The actual title of the story is: “GOP circulates loyalty pledge to box Trump in”
