The elected democrats are on the plantation and won’t be allowed to leave.

I’m not so sure they’ll go Tea Party, but I bet many Democrats will become Libertarians.

TEA is leading by example. Conservative Democrats have been as trashed by zero as we have, almost. Their insurance policies are being as cancelled as republican-voters are.

Is it too early to call them ‘Cruz Democrats’?

It depends on what the argument is.

I’ve found some success in arguing that the tea party will give liberals more of what they want than the Democrats. I remind them of all the democrat promises to end the cronyism and corporate welfare and then challenge them to show me what the democrats have done. I then remind them of the chamber of commerce attack on the tea party and explain that it’s because the chamber knows the tea party actually intends to end the cronyism and corporate welfare.

Except for one thing.... it’s NOT who votes......
BUT... who counts the votes that count..

The voting machine software may be a Trojan Horse.. i.e. probably is
Judging by many precincts with over 100% tally..
Even 100% is well night impossible.. even 90%.....

AND then there is the non mechanical massive voter fraud..
Voting DIED in Nov. 2012.. it died... i.e. became obvious... that hanky panky was afoote..

Since Nov 2012 the democrats have (no doubt) increased their expertise.. i.e. fine tuned...
Not everywhere BUT in most places.. especially the north east.. and left-coast..

WHY?.. republicans have done zero about it.. AND don’t even WANT to face that it exists..
They turn their heads and ignore it... (much to the delight of democrats)..

ONLY a Civil War can correct this situation....
I don’t like the thought of it either .... BUT IT’S TRUE...
No CW then prepare to become a democrat.. -OR- DIE..
or be re-educated in internment camps... or worked to death..

It has happened many times before AND will again...
America has become CORRUPT... and short of a CW.... deserves it..

They say Clinton is too conservative for them.

They want an Elizabeth Warren instead.

Progressive=populist they keep saying : Unemployment comp, minimum wage, universal pre-k, single payer, mandated paid leave,

Just watch NYC.

Regardless of their agreement with tea party ideas, they will always vote D. Liberalism of any degree really is a mental illness.

I got a kick out of Greta on her show a day or two ago cringing for the Dept of JustUs lawyer tasked with bringing a lawsuit against the Little Sisters of the Poor.

I'm happy you do. I try too. I have the loveliest elderly neighbors who moved from NYC to Texas and they predictably brought their politics with them. It's pointless to talk politics with them - in their mind, they are more compassionate, less racist, etc. than you and me. And yet they lure me in just so they can explain their “wonderful” position. If I do tell them something logical (conservative) they go silent and shrug. But they will never not vote D no matter how horrible the D candidate is.

LOL, the RINO party is so afraid of libertarians that they've slandered them as left of the left. What rot. Democrats will go RINO first, because RINO is between Democrats and real GOP Conservatives. Then come the Tea Party Republicans to the right of the GOP conservatives. Then to the right of them are the libertarians.

So the LAST place the Democrats will really go is the the libertarians, because there they will get zero social services. But the FIRST place they will SAY they will go is the libertarians, to freak out the Right and make a bogeyman of libertarian principles. This is because without the RINOs to block the conservatives from being able to fight, the Democrats would collapse. So they slander any rightward movement as libertarian, and then claim libertarianism is close to the heart of liberal Democrats.

It's the Big Lie, and extremely popular in California and Silicon Valley. Millions of hypocrite liberals claiming to be libertarians while grabbing as much money, power and control as possible and voting straight-ticket Democrat Socialist.

GOP guru Karl Rove further derided grassroots activists recently by saying this of his new group: “Our object is to avoid having stupid candidates who can’t win general elections.”

Um, Karl - If you really believe the above, you kind of missed the boat in 1996, 2008 and 2012.

Where is Ralph Nader when you really need him to destroy the Democratic Party. It would sure be nice to see a flaming liberal progressive, but anti-establishment party person like Nader to get the backing of splinter groups from “Occupy Whatever” to Organizing American and what ever ACORN has morphed into.

The brain-washable “Hope & Change” crowd is still out there.

A Tea Party Democrat is akin to the “$5 virgin whore” which legend says exists - oops, make that “$5 virgin Ho”.

Gotta rephrase things to stay PC correct.
