” ...Party elites who will only give us RINO candidates ...
Party elites don’t give us a thing. We do it to ourselves.
There were several viable conservative options in the 2012 GOP primary season. Conservative voters could not or would not find a single conservative candidate to rally around. And no single conservative candidate was willing to step aside to allow those voters to coalesce around another conservative candidate.
We split our votes. GOP-e took full advantage of that. But no one can say conservatives didn’t bring it on ourselves.
I agree with most of this statement. Unfortunately, the general GOP electorate is way too squishy moderate. There are not enough conservatives like those on FR. With nine challengers who split the non-Romney vote, it was 2008 all over again and we're left with McQueegII.
