Sorry to tell you, but there is no ‘we’ anymore.
The GOP jumped the shark this time. Not going to go into the reasons why, just check the record.
It’s Constitution Party time for all those who want this country back. And we will take it back.
The Republican ‘Wet Noodle’ Party is not only finished, they’re through.
HAHAHAHAHA, please. The Constitution Party is joke. Even the Greens got like 3-4 times more votes. The Constitution Party is so pathetic that, as of this moment, it only scored .09% of the vote. They couldn't even get .1%. Pathetic.
This 3rd party nonsense is the same thing we hear every time and it will never, ever, amount to squat. The Republican party is going to have to figure out a way to get more of the minority vote. Period. I know people don't want to hear that, but if we want to win national (and soon, State) elections we are going to have to figure out how to reach these people. There just aren't enough white people moving to the GOP fast enough to offset the explosion of minority ranks. Good grief, we are even losing 70% of Asians when we were winning them just a decade or so ago. That just can't go on, and folks that don't realize it are just sticking their heads in the sand.
“The Republican ‘Wet Noodle’ Party is not only finished, they’re through.”
You speak the truth. The problem for me is what to do about it. If we can’t unseat the GOPe, then we have to create an entity that will take over the bones of the GOP and craft something different. The problem for Conservatives is a couple of things. First, we don’t offer the “free lunch.” Second, we are not monolithic like the RATs. Third, even the so-called “moderate RATs” will vote for a liberal, but the reverse is not true. Fourth, although I hate to say it, the “religious conservatives” need to come to grips with the fact that this is politics and not church. You can’t win and hold each and every candidate to the exact specifications laid down by your particular “branch” of Christianity. And finally Fifth, we need to vet our candidates a whole lot better. We would likely have three and possibly four more “conservatives” in the US Senate if we had been more careful about Akin, Mourdock, Angle and O’Donnell. These people were the “darlings” of the Right, but we should have been suspect that they would do damage to themselves with their unfettered mouths and loose for all of us.
