Senator Cruz certainly shows that he has the qualities conservatives are looking for in the Republican Party. Could this be the start of new Republican leadership? We - the voters, supporters, campaign workers, door knockers, etc. - will have to decide if we want it to happen. If we have a leadership we can support than we have to step up an be counted.

The RNC has been calling daily. I don’t answer the call.
The GOP makes we want to puke these days with likes of McCain “leading” it.

...this should be the end of Senator John McCain as a voice of influence...
But then I thought that happened before and was sadly proven wrong.

...this should be the end of Senator John McCain as a voice of influence in the Republican party. Ditto his mini-me, Senator Lindsey Graham.Speaking of Miss Lindsey, anybody else notice she hasn't been seen much lately?

Great article! Very positive about the future of conservativism.

I to ignore the GOPO. Not worth my time. They really no longer care what I have to say, they are just after my money to elect rats.

After spending over forty years as a registered Republican, I cut myself loose from that pathetic bunch of eunuchs and registered last year as a Conservative. Guys like Ted Cruz, God Bless him, just may bring me back!

Speaking of Miss Lindsey, anybody else notice she hasn't been seen much lately? I suspect linda may be in heat and is shacked up someplace with her boyfriend.
Or, she's plotting how to overcome THREE very capable people who want her job. The primary and runoff next June (scroll down) will be very interesting.

Could this be the start of new Republican leadership? It most certainly is. That rumble you hear in the background is the indignant harrumphing of the old guard who see their end approaching.
They don't like it one bit, and will continue bellowing until their offices are cleaned out.

Why not tell the RNC that Cruz and company represent Conservatism, unlike the RNC and the GOP. Furthermore, tell them that you will only support and sponsor Conservatives like Cruz and you will not make contributions to the RNC nor the GOP RINOs.

McCain is under the influence of some voice, not American, not conservative.
The problem with the McCains and Bushes, et al is that they’re simply part of the ruling class, each waiting his turn to steer the Leviathan’s teat toward their cronies and manage the federal apparatus and apparatchniks as they will.

There is no reason to think the Tea Party, if properly organized and harnessed, cannot be even more potent next year than it was in 2010, especially now that its members know the government really was out to get them. I won't hold my breath for 2014, but by 2016, yes...the old GOPe machine should be gone. I know the democrats are having themselves a wet dream at our internal GOP civil war, but if real democrats did the same to the progressives who have co-opted their party and they got back to representing the real hopes and dreams of AMERICANS, they too will have a civil war on their hands.
Harry Reid, calling them Tea Party Anarchists. What's a matter Harry, do they scare you more than OWS? Does it scare you the Tea Party accomplished more in less than 6 years...than all the decades it has taken the progressives to get where they are now?
And make no mistake, the Tea Party has made inroads into a derelict government very quickly and we can make the same inroads into the culture to restore Freedom. We can do it, but will we choose to be the 'silent majority no more?'

Graham is in danger of being primaried. Like McCain, he needs to go. There’s absolutely no reason whatsoever that a milquetoast like Graham should represent a state as solidly conservative as SC is.

The decline began with GHW Bush. Never again. Actually, RINOs and conservatives have been at each other's throats since the days of FDR.
To: afraidfortherepublic
conservatives understand that rather than form a third party, their only hope is to seize control of the corrupt, rotting hulk of the GOP, Had me til here.
