It has come to the attention of the American people, that they are ALL snakes, and the entire bed of vipers must be dealt with.

[RatRipper]

This one has.

[Logical me]

Democratic Party, the party that is and has destroyed America.

Republican Party, the party of do nothing.

[Vaquero]

Democrats are currently a Marxist party....

the GOPe are enablers, ergo as bad or worse than the DNC. my only hope is those members of the GOP like Cruz and Palin.

[outpostinmass2]

Show me all the elitist Republicans holding tenured professorships and all those republican news editors. Where are those trust fund spoiled Republicans? Not in my state. I have never run into one.

Uh...duh...YUP!

[gdani]

They may despise them but it does not mean they will not vote for them.

Just wait until mid-2016 around here when all those same people who currently say they will never vote for RINOs, the Republican Party, etc change their tune & start calling people traitors for not voting for the GOP.

In other words, just like we saw in 2012.

Didn't get beyond the flawed 3d paragraph. The answer to the question in the title: "Not exactly".

The American spirit is that of a compassionate winner and many of us recognize the attacks on that spirit coming from the left.

Most of us hold in contempt those who swear an oath to uphold our Constitution and take our money by way of salary and benefits...and then either do nothing, very little or the exact opposite in response to that oath.

[skeeter]

The republicans are mistaken if they think they've pulled anything over on their constituency this time.

I have a strong suspicion they've really overplayed their hand.

[lormand]

I once served as President of my college chapter of the College Republicans. During my stint, I became frustrated and disillusioned about the control of the party by establishment north eastern Rockefeller republicans. I could not believe how politically unsavy the establishment was by completely ignoring Reagan's two landslide elections.

For the first time in my life, I refused to vote for Senator John Cornyn or my RINO congressman John Carter. I refuse to hold my nose when I vote from now on. I will not vote for establishment big government republicans period. Mississippi was the last straw for me.

Ted Cruz is the only elected official in Texas that represents me in Washington.

America's Own Axis of Weasels

[Thom Pain]

This started sometime around 1776; that’s why they created the Constitution.

[old and tired]

I can’t speak for anyone else, but I know I do.

[Da Coyote]

Indeed we have.

And, given that we effectively have no voting choices (idiot-level incompetence or merely lib arts professor level incompetence), there soon will be no other choice for the population save for revolt.

Really, that will soon become the only solution, whether you believe in it or not.

[central_va]

I don't understand the hatred Democrat rank and file have for the Democrat Party leadership. They actually do what they say they are going to do, they fight for the convictions and are in your face. Why are devout Democrats unhappy? Are they not socialist enough? We haven't achieved a communist state yet?

I wish the Republicans were like that but in the opposite direction politically.

[JayAr36]

They should be despised. Washington has become the most corrupt place since the Roman Empire. Vote trading, millions made WHILE in office, voter fraud accepted, etc. They have made their bed and so far haven’t truly been made responsible. There is a start but after a few years in office they too will have gone native.

[Bon mots]

Yup.

[EternalHope]

The leaders of the Republican Party have made it clear that they consider me their enemy.

I no longer think those leaders can be deposed by “working from within”.

I support a NEW party, even if that means the Republican Party loses the next election. Good riddance if they do.
