This happened some time ago with a conservative who lost out to a RINO in another big race and refused to attend a breakfast the next morning and shake hands with the winner of that Primary. Where is that candidate today - nowhere!!!

and if it were the other way around, and the RINO would not endorse? They'd probably be running the state party

The Republican Party establishment can go to hell as far as I am concerned. You explain it well. Bend over and take it up the rear or get out.

A lot of us conservatives are getting out. Good luck with your Doles, McCains and Romneys.

I will NOT vote for a RINO.
NEVER AGAIN !

What a DISAPPOINTMENT these dupes are that continue playing the "Establishment Republicans' " game of "Vote fort the lesser of two EVILS "!
Compromisers ALWAYS LOSE !

"Establishment Republicans" lose everytime they're listened to.
They wouldn't care if they DO lose.
If they can't be in power, they don't want US in power.
It's just that simple.
It's WAR!

We will never unify under "Establishment Republicans" .
"Establishment Republicans" have more in common with the Democrats, than they do with Conservatives.
The weak candidates are "Establishment Republicans", weak on national security, amnesty for illegals, abortion, and government spending.
"Establishment Republicans" scream "COMPROMISE".
And people who study the Bible know that COMPROMISE almost always leads to destruction.
Someone once said [We're] 'Not victims of "the Establishment." '
I disagree.
I ask you again: It WAS Mitt Romney, leader of the "Establishment Republicans"
and it WAS the "Establishment Republicans" who funded all those negative ads against Conservatives.

So conservatives, the BASE of the Republican Party, WERE ' victims of "the Establishment." '

These "Establishment Republicans" are being weeded out, one by one, and slowly but surely, the TEA Party is taking over.

"Establishment Republicans" Want to Redefine the Term "Conservative"
DO CONSERVATIVES "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" WANT TO WIN IN 2014 OR NOT?

Jack Kerwick wrote an article on May 24, 2011 titled The Tea Partier versus The Republican and he expressed some important issues that I agree with.


I'm fresh out of "patience", and I'm not in the mood for "compromise".
"COMPROMISE" to me is a dirty word.
Let the RINO's compromise their values, with the conservatives, for a change.
Take a good long look at where "Establishment Republicans" ALWAYS take us.



The "Establishment Republicans" can GO TO HELL !

FIRST we MUST DESTROY the "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" BEFORE we can REBUILD the CONSERVATIVE GOP.

Perhaps you are one who espouses the idea and is also capable of explaining why it will work.

I have asked others and they refuse, or can't give a cogent answer: How does replacing wishy-washy Republicans with hard-core democrats further our purpose and/or position us optimally to foster a less radical leftward swing and get us on track? How many more Obamas can we take and still be able to remember what our nation once looked like?

The Left got it's current power and all it's anti-Freedom/Constitution crap in place by patiently voting, en-masse, for anyone who was even a smidgen less conservative than the other choices. They stuck with the game plan and they made huge strides towards our destruction one baby step at a time. If you really think that allowing them to become a super majority throughout (bound to happen if everyone in every State follows your recipe) will help Conservatism, please explain it so others can understand it.

The Democrats are counting on it.

Conservatives refused to vote for RINOs in five of the past six Presidential elections. All that got us was President Clinton, President Obama and damned near President Algore. How has that strategy been working out for you so far?

Do whatever you can to get the best candidates nominated that you can vote for, but when it comes time to vote all you can do is pick between the candidates that you actually have to choose from. Unless you are on the ballot, you will never have a candidate to vote for that you agree with all of the time. The best you can hope for is a candidate that you agree with most of the time. In many cases, your choice comes down to which is the lesser of two evils. That is reality whether you like it or not.

In one month, either the Democrats will continue to control the Senate for another two years or Republicans (including a lot of RINOs) will control the Senate. Those are the only two possibilities. One of those two choices is going to occur, regardless of whether or not you refuse to pick one.

In a Republican/RINO controlled Senate, at least the conservatives have a chance of blocking some of Obama's far left wing liberal judicial appointments. In a Democrat/Harry Reid controlled Senate, then conservatives have no chance whatsoever to block anything.

The only way to get the establishment Republicans to stop pushing moderate/liberal candidates is to fight like hell to get a conservative candidate nominated in 2016 and then fight like hell to get him elected by a landslide. Winning elections sends a message.

Believe me, I’m not in favor of Establishment Republicans. I’d like to see a nationalized Tea Party that unites to endorse and back good conservative candidates, initially on the GOP ballot, in 50 states.

As that national party matures, if they don’t succeed in taking over the GOP from the Establishment, then I’d like to see them pull a UKIP.

But that doesn’t mean that with an Obama presidency and the Supreme Court potentially at stake, once the primaries are over, we should be backstabbing those in the GOP who have actually held the line in office.

There’s a difference between strong and stupid.

It's a long, hard battle that we've got ahead of us.
We must "STEEL" our political party.
No longer can we tolerate "linguine-spined" elected Republicans.
To fight this EVIL, we must ALL be willing to expose the DemocRATs' lying, cheating, stealing, and abusing their constituents,
and be able to do it at the drop of a hat.
Those RINOs that we MUST weed out, continue to make us weaker and weaker, with every consecutive election.

Go back to Comment #24 and watch those videos.
David Horowitz describes the problem VERY WELL, so you MUST watch it and take notes.
Each and every one of our candidates MUST FIGHT and MUST HAVE NO SYMPATHY about DESTROYING their DemocRAT opponent.
The "nice guy" and the "want to be loved by the media" fantasy ~ IS OVER.
If our elected officials can't fight and "DELIVER A KNOCK OUT PUNCH", then we don't want them, ~ plain and simple.
Read Jack Kerwick's article again.
Don't skip over this "MEAT" and don't get lost in the minutia !
If you still want to be timid and soft spoken, then expect to continue losing.
If you're still on the "MILK" of politics, you're going to get you head delivered to you by the DemocRATs.
It's time to "DRAW BLOOD" !

That’s because we need Kansas as insurance to take the Senate. Too many states are too close for comfort right now.

All-in-all Roberts is not a RINO like Cochran or McConnell. Wolf may have been a better choice, but I’d much rather have Roberts in this seat than the pinko “independent” that will caucus with the RATS.

If we must give the GOP a "FIERY FURNACE OF A TRIAL"
"COMPROMISE" IS A DIRTY WORD !
I read a great article by Sheriff Jim R. Schwiesow, Ret. written February 4, 2011 from "NewsWithViews.com" and here's part of it.
Read Compromise Is a Dirty Word for Club for Growth.

Believe me, I’m not in favor of Establishment Republicans.

I fully agree.

Saving our nation will require two necessary steps.

First, the Republicans need to take control of the Senate this year. If not, then Obama and Reid will have two more years to pack the courts with whatever far left wing nominees that they want, all of whom will be legislating from the bench for another generation. Also, the chances of Republicans taking the Senate in 2016 are slim, simply because of the numbers of Democrat and Republican seats that will be up for election that year. The best chance for a Republican controlled Senate after 2016 is to take the Senate this year and hold it in 2016.

Second, we need to elect a conservative President in 2016 and start replacing RINOs in the House and Senate with conservatives. A conservative President with the support of a Republican controlled House and Senate can undo nearly everything that Obama has done.

If we cannot accomplish both of these steps, then it is going to be very difficult for our nation to survive.

That’s because we need Kansas as insurance to take the Senate. Too many states are too close for comfort right now.

Also, we need insurance for 2016, when it will be an uphill battle just to break even.

In 2008, the Democrats had a landslide year. As a result, most of the seats that are up for election this year are Democrat seats. In 2010, the Republicans had a landslide year. As a result, most of the seats that are up for election in 2016 are Republican seats.

To gain seats in 2016, the Republicans will have to take out Democrats who managed to get elected or re-elected in 2010 and hold on to every Republican that got elected that year. It will be an uphill battle not to lose some Senate seats in 2016, no matter who our presidential candidate may be.

I don't want to fight like hell to get a conservative candidate nominated and elected President in 2016 only to have everything we want him to do blocked by a Harry Reid controlled Senate.

Soros to Host Fundraiser for ‘Independent’ Kansas Senate Candidate

Kansas Senate hopeful Greg Orman insists that he is not beholden to the Democratic Party, but a major Democratic donor is hosting a fundraiser for his campaign to unseat Republican incumbent Sen. Pat Roberts.

Jonathan Soros, son of billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, will host a New York City fundraiser this week for Orman, who is running as an independent candidate, according to an invitation obtained by America Rising.

Because that has worked so effectively for the past 20 years.

In 1992, conservatives refused to vote for the RINO Bush, giving us President Clinton.

In 1996, conservatives refused to vote for the RINO Dole, once again giving us President Clinton.

In 2000, conservatives refused to vote for the RINO Bush II, damned near giving us President Algore (He won a majority of the popular vote. Thank God for the electoral college).

In 2008, conservatives refused to vote for the RINO McCain, giving us President Obama.

In 2012, conservatives refused to vote for the RINO Dole, once again giving us President Obama.

Do you see any sort of pattern here? Has refusing to vote for a RINO and letting the Democrat win ever worked?

Trying to convince the establishment Republicans not to nominate RINOs by electing Democrats is like trying to convince the environmental left that Global Warming is a scam by pointing out that every single global warming model that has predicted Global Warming has been wrong for the past 20 years.

The only way to get the establishment Republicans to stop nominating RINOs is to get a conservative candidate nominated and then get him elected by a landslide. Winning elections sends a message. Losing elections does not.

I agree, though that has been our ongoing strategy—and it hasn’t been sufficient. That’s why I think we need to develop a national tea party to both consolidate our votes at the primary stage and then, if necessary, eventually replace the GOP outright.

Simply voting in Democrats doesn’t solve anything either. I agree that we have to take stronger action, but it doesn’t have to be mindless action.

Typo, though RINOs are pretty interchangeable.
