"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton |

"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams |

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

Hey, we are going to settle here, except for maybe Paul RyanBoo him off the stage. Do not let him speak. When RMGO did that to Governor Bill Owens in Colorado the little twerp disappeared forever.

Paul Ryan has sunk his White House hopes, at least as a Republican candidate. Is there a primary challenger on the horizon?

Actually he is the emerging leader of the new Conservative Party.
The Republican Party has entered its death throes.
To: SoConPubbie
Republicans, however, continue to shoulder most of the blame. Republicans are going to get the blame no matter what they do. The media will pound them from now until November regardless of whether its Obamacare, CR, debt ceiling or something else. The incessant attacks will intensify as we approach the elections. So Pubbies may as well stand up and fight. What is there to lose? I think Cruz understands this quite well.

I had forgotten about Governor Owens of CO; wasn’t he a stealth Democrat all the time?

Yes, he is filling a void that was glaringly obvious, and a very good choice for leader. Dubya retired from politics, Romney would normally be the titular head but also bugged out. This left crazy lefty McCain, who was no use at all, McConnell the same, and Boener, who is doing his best but is not conservative enough.

McCain is just fuming this morning on FNC with Martha MacCallum interview.....have never seen him this mad and is blaiming everything on everyone except for the demonrats and O. It’s sickening.
Thankful we have someone with some backbone and morals like Ted Cruz.

Exactly. And I’m proud to be on board. Watching the voters’ summit on CSPAN3. Most refreshing.
