When I see them telling us to compromise I always see in my minds eye the photos of beheaded people. That is what compromise will do for you.

Christie is the guy the media has been foisting on us for years.

They love to choose our candidates for us, to our detriment.

Don’t let it happen...

"...and this is why Christie will not be the 2016 nominee."

Don't underestimate the gutless GOP elite. They've given us nominees like him too many times before.

Buh~bye Chrissy. We thought we knew ya. And we were right.

[ColdOne]

I guess that was a bit harsh, but you cannot compromise with these loons in power.
