I don’t get it; going conservative and staying there will WIN elections, why don’t they see that?

The threat is from the TEA party on the right, and the libertarians on the left. The GOPe brand is neither fiscal nor social conservative. I expect the Dems (if they are smart) to start pushing to lower spending and legalize drugs to pull the libertarians out. With the GOPe attacking the TEA party full time, that pretty much means we will have the DNC in charge for a while.

The GOPe has decided to attack both in hopes of regaining their base. It won’t work.

Business wants
1. Amnesty.
2. Socialized medicine.

Votes don’t matter, money does. The money gets what they want.

I am now a registered member of the Libertarian Party. If a Constitutional conservative like Cruz or Palin is on the ticket the Republicans can count on my vote. Last time I voted for Gary Johnson. He was an excellent two term governor, vetoing 750 steaming piles of laws. More vetos than all other governors combined.

A Cruz/Palin ticket works for me. Thanks for sharing.
