Yes. The RINOs have historically lined up behind a single candidate, and we haven’t. It’s much easier for them, because they can hash out their candidate among the top ten donors. It’s time we did the same thing among the top four talk show hosts.
Otherwise, bash Jeb all you want and encourage as many RINO candidates as possible.
The electoral deck is stacked against us. We will need a united party to win, and we can’t afford many mistakes. I want a conservative, but I also want a candidate whose passion is articulating a positive conservative agenda and carrying the fight to the left, as opposed to flaying other Republicans, splitting the party, and handing issues to the dems. Maybe Newt could give a class in how to do this.
That would reverse the mechanics of how Rove et al. squeezed out Sarah in 2012. Exception: Always more money at the RiNO end of the pool, so their 12 candidates are no more burden to their cause than our 2-3 to us. (Note: Wiseguys are pretty sure that the conservative GOP hasn't resources to support more than one primary candidate. That's why Moloch Rove et al. whispered into so many conservative ears that year -- to dry up the shallow end of the pool fast.)
