The GOP has an image problem- someone is always stepping their foot in their mouths with women, minorities, etc. Rand Paul’s defense on war on women issue, he brought up Clinton and Monica Lewinnski. Really? Why didn’t he use stats like under Obama admin women make less money then the men.

They have allowed the Dems and Liberals to define the Look at how they twisted the Civil Rights history. I want the Black GOP party to do more to educate the Dem black voters of the history of the GOP, of Margaret Sanger and her motives to exterminate the blacks, handicapped, people. The Frederick Douglas Republicans are trying to do this.

I do think there are hard working Black folks who have voted Dem that could be turned, There are hard-working legal Hispanics who could be turned as well.

We need a good solid don’t take any crap messenger(s) to work and gain the trust of the minorities.

At our National Conventions, news folks and Dems laugh at the GOP every time- saying, look all you see is a sea of white folks.

Dems require that so many minorities are delegates. Why don’t we do that?

GOP keeps doing the same ole thing every election. They know there is voter fraud, they do nothing, like Romney just rolled over even though there were more votes then voters in several Ohio counties and other States.

Look at Chicago blacks turning on Obama because they feel he abandoned them.

GOP just focuses on raising money, doing their political stumps and do the wait and see if they win or lose.

They could elect a female Speaker of the House...but instead they nominate elitist men.

I am tired of passing women Prius drivers and having Obama stickers on their cars. I am tired of people like Rand Paul saying stupid crap when trying to show GOP doesn’t have a war on women.

Wish the Republicans would stop the drop a baby in the USA and become American citizen law- Canada did that like 20 years ago....if they win Senate and President, only hope to change that law, though....

thats funny as hell. I put the same sign in the back window of my car. Before I was kicked off a liberal board, I preached it like it was the truth. The low info people bought it hook line and sinker. I spun it like this, Obama said to reduce voter intimidation and disenfranchisement, Republicans vote on Tuesday and Dems on Wednesday.

All Jokes aside, I still feel like we conservative Texans best no get complacent.

Tattoo vote? That’s the ticket, Rand. Let’s target the NBA. We can drive the Democrat vote down from 93 percent of players to 91.5.

......."Socially indifferent"?

“Texas will be a Democratic state within 10 years if you don’t change,”....

But if they follow Paul’s pro-amnesty trail, Texas can turn blue even sooner. Yay! Does he really think people are this dumb?

Why is rand paul repeating such nonsense?

***
Because he is a proud member of the Republicrat Party.

>> He is entirely right that the GOP needs some kind of image makeover.

Vote out the RINOs. There’s the makeover.

Thanks for carrying the enemy’s water, Rand.

I, for one, am no longer fooled into thinking that Rand Paul is on our side.

Same here. I was happy to support him as long as he behaved like a conservative, but what am I supposed to do when a rep starts 'going native'?

I'm sorry, but Rand blew it.

Cause he’s a moron and what he’s really saying here is the GOP needs all the stoners that love his daddy.

>> Rand Paul is about as far from GOP-e as you can get.
> That's not true at all.

Indicates perhaps that the "GOP-e" isn't that useful a concept.

Yesterday's rebel or insurgent or true conservative is tomorrow's elitist or establishmentarian.

I don't think we conservatives really understood what Rand Paul was about at first. Now that he's been in office a while, it's apparent that he's a center-right Republican with libertarian leanings. Not a true conservative by any stretch.

The true rebels and insurgents stay that way, and never make peace with the enemies of the republic.

Those are a couple big “if’s”. Not all Texans vote. Many in my own county refuse to vote because they believe the current crop of candidates aren’t worth it.
