More stupid division-making.

Why do conservatives go through this every election?

They spend more time trying to kill each other than fighting against the left.

“More stupid division-making....”
*******************************************************************
Sorry to see that you think that those of us who, for example, CHOOSE to be members of the Gun Owners of America instead of the National Rifle Association are stupid and devisive. It’s, at least for a while longer, still a relatively free country so you can feel and do as you wish regarding membership and/or support of various organizations. And I, and those who have come to the same conclusions I have come to, are equally free to believe and do as we CHOOSE.

I’ve lived in districts (e.g., google Wayne Gilchrest) where the NRA supported one of THE most liberal members of Congress against a conservative challenger—simply because he was an incumbent. That is apparently the NRA’s strategy—and it was that particularly election which caused me to not renew my NRA membership and to cease supporting their election fund raising efforts. I’ve moved on to an organization that is more consistently conservative.

Yup.

These are the people who do not want to see conservatives coalesce around a single presidential candidate because each candidate has some flaws.

These are the people who keep telling us how bad all these groups are while ignoring all the progress those groups helped create.

The Chamber of Commerce does a lot of good. It also supports amnesty. I see their flaws clearly.

The NRA does an incredible amount of good, but sometimes uses flawed reasoning to endorse a candidate. I see their flaws clearly.

I would much rather have a team that is pulling in the same direction with flaws I know than nobody at my side who is flawless.

I sometimes think these people are liberal agents meant to keep us divided.
