If this final betrayal doesn't spark an exodus from the corrupt, decrepit Republican Party and the creation of a new national TEA Party, then NOTHING will!

Interesting post by someone yesterday.. It is better to vote for a true conservative and lose then go with the RINO who may win the election but will let you down in the crunch.....

The RINO’s are begging to be voted out by us “exotics” that are not so much on the fringe as their Democrat friends are telling them
To: Timber Rattler
I’m weighing how much faith I should continue to have, if any, in the electoral process.

Excellent analysis. The GOP-e consistently opposes and/or kneecaps conservative Republican candidates and then expresses dismay when those candidates lose. Conservative candidates do not only have to contend with the Democrat in front of them, but with the GOP-e pinning their arms behind their back.

Well, something that is completely flying over the heads of the chatterers and pundits this morning is the very slim margins of victory in both Virginia and Alabama, despite all odds.
The GOP-E might be dancing this morning, but it's dancing on its own political grave.

The Republicans saved a bunch of money here. In 2016 they don’t have to spend anything in Virginia as they delivered it to the Clinton machine last night.

I didn't think the citizens of VA would have the courage to vote for a conservative.
While I understand the anger and agree somewhat with a new party, a 3rd party will continue to ensure Democratic victory. In the case of VA, where an Obama bundler footed the bill for the “Libertarian” candidate, then you would have the vote split 4 ways. Dems, Rep, Lib and Tea Party....Tell me how this will create a victory for the Tea party candidate?

To paraphrase another FReeper some weeks ago:
"The GOP-E doesn't represent us in Washington, it represents Washington to us."

We should ask Ken to run for Senate. We now know the landscape down to the last patch of grass, and can win with national TEA support.

“Moderates” are lying manipulative bottom feeding scum. They’ll happily toss a race to the democrats just to say “We told you so”.
Nothing but Kapos who kiss the asses of their masters while keeping the problem inmates in line.

The RNC chose to spend their donors' money on the New Jersey Fatass instead.

“Chamber of commerce” zero support. There you have it, the amalgamation of big business and the dems for all to see. Ya see, they love their subsidies. They love their o care as it will remove a huge burden from their expense ledgers.

If I were a Democrat trying to fracture the Conservative movement, I would write this article.

AND, the GOP is totally oblivious to the damage done by having such a huge portion of our state government handed to socialists, not to mention giving Hillary a Virginia base of operations in 2016. The GOP will NEVER see any support from me, ever.

I think fundraising was Cuccinelli’s Achilles heel. He was a reluctant fundraiser. A right winger like him should have been fundraising in red states and making pledges of mutual support with like-minded conservatives. Instead, he let McAuliffe outraise him. Cory Booker was a lock for the US Senate, but he raised funds all over the country anyway. Complaining is not a strategy.

The GOP just showed the world that they regard the Conservative movement as the enemy.

the Cuccinelli campaign blanketed Virginia with ads. More money wasn’t going to help. The fix was in.
