"We'll keep our God, our guns, our Constitution, our TEA Party, and to He// with the GOP-E"
It’s clearly time for a third party, the Tea Party.
Mark Levin is a national treasure, and that’s no exaggeration.
None of this crapweasel caving-in for him.
BTTT...The GOP-e has to go!!
I’m glad that Levin addressed Governor Palin’s prominent role in conservatism, we will need her and the tea party in 2014.
When discussing the future of conservatism, Levin highlighted in particular Texas Senator-elect Ted Cruz and former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, among others.
“I love Sarah Palin,” Levin said.
“You see how intelligent she is?,” Levin asked, noting that Palin is nothing like the caricature of her on the left and in the mainstream media.
Levin said Palin should be given credit for effectively and enthusiastically articulating the conservative cause, even though she has been attacked by the mainstream media and the Republican establishment.
“Yet, she still rallies the base a hundred times more than these people telling us what we are supposed to do,” Levin said.
It seems to me that the Tea Party is but a concept with lots of talk and absolutely no action. With out action, the Tea Party has no real effect
The fervor of two or three years ago has dissipated
You BETCHA.
Mark is right. There is no way around it the RINOs have to go.
Levin is one of my heroes. I have more respect for him than Rush and most other radio commentators. Thomas Sowell is my favorite journalist.
Good to know we have a few constitutionalists left
I heard the same thing from a group just outside of Cleveland over the summer, that their numbers were down a lot. Except for Ted Cruz, most of the Tea Party candidates did not do very well. Mandel lost; Mourdock lost; Aken's Tea Party opponent didn't even win the primary. West is likely to lose. So, while I'd like to think it's a force, right now it isn't.
Until or unless the Tea Party can mobilize people at least 15 years younger on average, it will not have much impact.
The Stupid Party intentionally went out of its way to remove all references to the Tea Party at the 2012 Republican Convention... and look what it got them in November.
You won’t change the Republican Party elite – National Chairman, Reince Priebus, aligned himself with Romney and they shut out the Tea Party and conservatives at the national convention and passed a rule to be able to shut them down from now on. Priebus did not allow the words, Tea Party, be spoken in front of the convention. Every speaker had his/her speech gone over and any comments Priebus and Romney people didn’t want was removed. That is the reason Palin turned down a speech – she didn’t want her words edited. It should be meaningful to you that she didn’t go.
Those delegates, the base of the party that had been shut down, went home and told their friends and Romney lost votes.
Priebus already has the required votes to give him that office again in a few months when they have that election. He has their support and that means conservatives and Tea Party will remain second class citizens in the party.
We won’t be able to elect a conservative candidate in the 2016 primary because Priebus and the rest think they have to go even more left than Romney to get independent voters and Hispanic voters and black voters.
They will attach the sign, “Most Electable” once again to their liberal candidate of choice, to assure his election as the winning primary candidate. That also assures his defeat in the general election even though you and others will vote for the liberal once again to try to prevent “President Hillary Clinton” from happening.
There is not a conservative Republican Party anymore.
This is my opinion and I worked inside the Republican Party for many years and I know how it works. Your opinion may vary.
What a bunch of crap. Where were they in November? THEY STAYED HOME. Way to go!
It amazes me that Mark Levin is from Philly. That makes two conservatives I know from there. :)
“He said after Reagan, George H.W. Bush lurched to the left rather than “build up Reaganism” and the party and the conservative movement has not been the same since.”
George Herbert Walker Bush, a much smaller man than Reagan, has made a life’s work of undoing the Reagan Revolution and bringing back the Rockefeller Republican machine of Prescott Bush, Nelson Rockefeller and George Romney et alia.
He has achieved that end.
The only good thing about the nomenklatura of the Geriatric Old Plotters is that for most of them their sun has just about set for eternity.
He's right: It's only by overthrowing the GOP-E that we begin re-claiming the party of Ronald Reagan.
Unfortunately, I live in Illinois, and all but ONE of the Tea Party Republican's that were elected here in 2010 survived the 2012 elections due to "re-districting" here in Illinois that was designed to eliminate the "Tea Party Republican's" and guarantee a Democrat stranglehold state-wide until at least 2020.
I gotta get the hell out of this state!
Good for Levin. Right on the mark.
It’s too bad that the tea Party supports candidates who voted to fund 0bamacare.
It worked in Canada
Conservatives hold the country now.

Look North^^^
This is almost impossible. We've tried for years with lil to no gain in conservative control.
Two steps forward, one step back it seems. Then we go into a hole for 8 years with Clinton then Obozo.
The liberal progressives, Enviro-nuts, Socialist have gained firm control.
Republicans are a bunch of spineless capitulators. They have little will to fight for conservative values.
Lower taxes? Smaller government? Rule of Law? Liberty/Freedom? Fiscal responsibility?
Where are our Republican leaders?
