They said RIP DNC in 2004 and we all know how that turned out...unfortunately. I just think that a transition of the GOP to 100 percent conservative is our best option. Michele Bachmann/Rick Santorum in 2016 would guarantee our success. I am sure that I will get hate posts because some FREEPERS hate conservative good people like Bachmann/Santorum just as the GOP Elite does. UGH!!!!!

I agree with you. If republicans become like democrats then we will have no representation. Half the country seems to be liberal so let the democrats have them. The rest of us choose to be conservatives and we want representation.

Well, I love conservatives and have been a staunch one for 45 years. That being said, you are incorrect about Santorum. Excellent man, citizen, father and husband. Poor candidate. This is not “hate”. It is reality.

Santorum isn't a good conservative. He is just another RINO that plays the conservative card. I actually do like conservatives, you know, those that don't lie to their constiuency about where they live, those that don't support ultra-liberals for office who ended up being the linchpin of getting obamacare passed. You know that if Santorum had stuck to what he calls his principles we might not have Obamacare right now? How can you then call him a "conservative good person"?

I don't think there are any perfect people and if there were such a thing I would like to think that they would be able to find something better to do with their lives than run for office. That being said we should be able to expect certain things from conservatives, like them not cheating on their wives for example. Not lying to their constiuents and not supporting liberals has to be on that list.

Do you know why these supposed conservatives have no compunctions about stabbing us in the back time after time? It's because they know they know that some people will support them no matter what as long as they mouth certain platitudes. There is nothing more important than actions, and that is the only thing that should earn or lose our votes. Santorum's actions are counter to what he says.

Romney was the last straw for me. I held my nose and voted for him and I still feel dirty for doing so. If the Republican party keeps putting forth RINOs they can do it without my financial support, without my efforts and without my vote.

I won't reply with a 'hate post', but I will give that statement a raspberry.

Michelle Bachmann, who abandoned our country?
