Funny how you almost never see a story like this about the Democrats. Am I to believe that there's been no dissension in the ranks there since Andrew Jackson?

That's because some Republicans -- especially what's left of the moderate wing -- don't want a repeat of the 2010 and 2012 elections

That's funny, the RINOEs ran moderates in 2012 and the Tea Party voted out so many Dems in 2010 that theHouse went Republican majority.

I swear these idiots can't even remember back 3 years.

Our opposition, in the GOP or Democrat party, lie more and better than we do. This is a unifying theme from Alabama and Virginia Tuesday.

Moderate republicans = bigger government, higher taxes, more gun control, making illegals legal,..etc

Why do I really care about them? Who are THEIR base? Democrat lites?

Fight them ALL day long.

The reporter writes “The GOP has failed to get a majority of Americans to vote for its presidential candidates in five of the last six elections.” Of course, she conveniently omits the fact that Bill Clinton had only a PLURALITY in his two victories and that Al Gore did NOT have a majority but merely a plurality when he lost to Bush in 2000. So in the past six elections only Obama (twice) and Bush (once) garnered a MAJORITY of votes.

And the same tripe is seen in the analysis of the Virginia election, omitting the large percentage of votes which went to the faux-Libertarian.

Good reporting CNN! /s

Whichever conservative diplomatically tells people to think for themselves and ignore WaPo, NYT, CNN, NBC, et al., wins.

As far as I’m concerned, the Republicans formed their own third party. There’s them, the demoncrats, and the rest of us. The republicans used to represent “the rest of us.” Now they don’t. I could care less if they become a footnote in history.

If we have to lose some elections to KILL this parasitic class of consultants, led by LaTourettes, and his cadre of crony capitalists at the Chamber of Commerce, who have helped run up the debt through their own favors, then so be it.

They poured in thousands of dollars to help their toad in Alabama, and we were not prepared for it. In 2014, we will be. Time to snap the Democrat wing of the GOP for good. Shred ‘em!

In 2000 the gop had the senate, the house and the white house. But you’d never know it.

In one corner, Conservatives- in the other corner Democrats posing as Republicans.

The difference is that Democrats all pull the same rope when it comes to winning elections/issues. They don't "fragment" until the previous unified front causes them problems. They all knew that Cruz, Lee and company were correct, but held together until the pretty much won the issue, then those affected decided to start clean up actions.

Their voters do the same thing - burn them a thousand times and they still vote for the Dems who burned them.

We fragment early and often and keep giving them elections because "the lesser of two evils is not a choice even if it means what is happening right now with a second Obama term - we have long-range dreams and short term schizophrenia - the long term can't happen if you keep killing your short term chances.
