We don’t need a revolt, it will achieve nothing. We need a new party that articulates conservative values. If as conservatives we remain in the GOP we will have to compromise our principles. Conservatism is a movement not a political party. We need a party that is exclusive to us, not one we have to share.

And still we are buffeted by elitist bashing of Sarah Palin.

Agreed, they can's even defend one of their own. Yet is she? She is everything they oppose.

Sarah Palin was the only thing between John McCain for President and flat line.

Bingo! As soon as Palin was announced I was thrilled. She is everything we supported as a Primary Challenge candidate. She took on the corrupt republican machine in Alaska, she won and followed through with her promise to go after corruption. This is the whole concept with Primary Challenge. We have to take on the corrupt machine and what better way than to go after them in their house of power!

But... But....

Don’t you understand that Palin is UNQUALIFIED? Even though she has far more executive experience than the Messiah?

I’ll have to report you to the Thought Police for reeducation, dude...

Had the same phenomena back during the McClintock/Schwarten-RINO debacle in Californistan. Disgusting...

I agree. Preaching to the choir has gotten us no where. We have to become the Party of reform, real change and the return to the Constitution.

When we put up candidates that carry that message and we promote honesty, integrity, Law abiding, Citizen Legislators that do not want to spend their life in DC, we can make huge headway.

People do not trust politicians from the local levels and worse in DC.

It’s in Limbaughs site. He had a monologue talking about a source inside the Republicans retreat a couple weeks ago.

Friends, we are the last surviving nieces and nephews of Uncle Sam. Our fellow citizens are blind, deaf, dumb and worse than stupid.

I'm not sure you'll get far with that as your campaign slogan.

The blue states wouldn’t let us go. Who do you think is paying their bills?

LOL. The federal revenue from blue states in nearly 3 times that of the federal revenue from red states.

Blue $1,975,116,492,000.00
Red $695,342,860,000.00

Federal revenue came from IRS by way of wikipedia (won't apologize for its use in reporting hard data)

If you are a conservative with school aged kids in public school, you are NOT a conservative. Start tomorrow, pull your kids out of public school.

You paying the tab for my four kids?

Yes, Sarah Palin IS our stimulus package.

The enemies of the Republic in both parties recognize that.

And Shephard Smith just hates her because he can't look that good in red heels.

We are wise to laugh off the "media" and "party establishment" attacks on Sarah Palin as spasmodic self-preservation of life-sapping parasites.

Your strategy to take back the party locally is unstoppable.

As the media withers on the vine, so, too, shall the national party.

Candidates and principles, not an elite priest class of fish-fisted salesmen.
