...notably the self-styled "maverick" "hothead" GangBang Sen. John McCain

Since Jumpin' Johnny takes pride in his "Gang of Eight" relationship perhaps we should refer to him as "GangBang McCain".

[House Atreides]

The left is, once again, telling us who and what they fear.

“”GangBang McCain”

Excellent! I am going to be laughing about that every time I think about it! ;-)

[LibLieSlayer]

Beck said they are doing a piece on rubio next week and it will destroy any hope that rubio has of a conservative career. I never did like the guy.

[Irenic]

I’ll buy the GOP a Going Away or Retirement card, no problem.

[LibLieSlayer]

I HATE COMMUNISTS AND BROOKINGS IS PURE COMMUNISM!

If they really believed this swill, they would be keeping it to themselves and laughing all the way to the ballot box.

Instead they are scared $hitless of these real conservatives.

Actually, it is and continues to be the decades of deal making and compromises
that has this country on the brink.

Tell brookings to go crap in their hat, The RINO’s have already killed the GOP.

[John S Mosby]

Lincoln Chaffee is switching parties... announced today— and a huuuuuge surprise. What a wuss, from a nothing state.

[Right Wing Assault]

their stubborn style of politics that's been rapped even by some mainstream Republicans, notably the self-styled "maverick" Sen. John McCain

Rapped EVEN by some mainstream Republicans?

And how can you be a mainstream "maverick?"

[The Wizard]

they are dong what WE want, not what the media elites want...screw the GOP if it doesn’t support the Tea Parties, no loss

[The Wizard]

or choice number 3: The Tea Party Party

[Forward the Light Brigade]

Maybe the GOP needs to go the way of the Whigs? The Vichy Republicans are collaborators with the Progs. They need to be driven from power and a new party replace them! USIP is the answer—Best if the Tea Party can take over the GOP and bring it back to Reaganism. That or 3rd Party Time. Our British cousins have shown the way with the UKIP—The Tories have been in bed with the Liberals for too long and have lost their ability to be an opposition party — they are tokens only—Liberal-lite only. UKIP may well save the day.

"The RINO’s have already killed the GOP."

They didn't help. But lack of interest in solving problems has killed the GOP. Just to ask what were the best bills introduced by the GOP, you get 38 attempts to end Obamacare.

The GOP has to improve on, Obama is a socialist, was born in Africa, is a Muslim, married to Moon the moocher, etc. These didn't work, try 'we are going to do.....'.

  Latinos, should be a natural constituency for the party, Paul argued, but "Republicans have pushed them away with harsh rhetoric over immigration." ...he would create a bipartisan panel to determine how many visas should be granted for workers already in the United States and those who might follow...

We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said. [Rand Paul: Time for GOP to soften war stance]

  One day after announcing on his radio show that he is "truly considering" running in 2014 for the U.S. Senate seat now held by New Jersey's Frank Lautenberg, Rivera amped up his message today in a television interview and a column on the Fox News Latino website... a moderate Republican who is fiscally conservative but also supports gay marriage and Roe v. Wade... [Geraldo Rivera declares himself a 'moderate Republican' as he eyes U.S. Senate run]
