There you go, questioning the "Conservative Purists" who are totally invested in their own "Have our dicks cut off with dignity, rather than vote for anyone who isn't 100% of our definition of 'Pure'!"

We have two years of listening to them destroy anyone but their own, if that individual even exists, and then after they refuse to vote to "send a message", and the RAT they elected by not voting starts to run amok, they will whine and complain for another two years.

But, hey, they are "dickless with dignity!"

“Conservative Purists” ?

Maybe, but if you don’t look for the best candidate, you end up with those who are all things to all people and stand for nothing.

I asked the question in 2012 at the stage of 6 or so in the GOP debates: “Is this the best the GOP has? If so, they are in serious trouble.”

If you don’t expect better, you get another middle-of-the-road spineless also-ran.
