Did you hear Rush the other day when he was talking about one of his friends who he keeps nameless?
The subject matter was with said friend that the status quo denotes that a 3rd party is a non starter, said friend noted given the current environment they are not so sure that holds any more or something to that effect. It was not off hand, the verb-age was much better than I am discribing, and IMHO is was a warning volley to the E-GOP.
I don't know who this mystery person is. I'd love to know who El-Rushbo is talking too off the record. But you have to ask yourself why. Why are they trying ( Dems and Repubies ) trying to destroy the last vestiges of Reagan's Vision? Yes the answer is obvious, it is about power, K-Street's spice of which they are addicted and their refusal to downsize or rightsize Government and return Liberty to us.
I bet you dollars to donuts that if Rush mentioned this, the Beltway knows they are on thin ice. They know we are pissed, and they know the rise in Independents are Conservatives that have finally said enough and changed their status as a polite "Up-Yours" to the GOP. They know they can't keep their 3 Card Monte game going for much longer. "Our" ranks in the Senate will swell. The likes of Ernst and more like her coming in 16' and beyond are real, as dinosaurs their finally die off from old age, time is not in their favor.
We can wait them out, elect more or someone like Ted Cruz or Sarah Palin could run as a 3rd Party.
IMHO the GOP sucks such pond water they would have more energy and volunteers than they would know what to do with and I think Rush's little line about a 3rd party running was mentioned for effect. Rush is a master wordsmith. That one sentence was not glib or without thought.
Grab some popcorn it ought to be interesting. Closer to home, I am wondering if challenges to Boenher and McConnell are not out of the question in January....
Afraid they are, there is little doubt who controls both Houses and they are not conservatives.
We should wait until we can win the presidency then we can change things for the better.
