Growing up in OK with parents from NYC, I remember the term “Rockefeller Republicans” that my parents and grand parents used. They were also bitter over the FDR years.

It seems today many conservatives are finally reaching that level of disdain. I do think we are experiencing the end of go along to get along attitude among conservative voters. I can only hope and pray it’s so.

I am with you on these feelings with the exception that this is an entirely different generation we are living in. I do NOT believe the level of disdain will ever reach a level where conservatives go out and march on the District of Corruption - we saw some of that with Glenn Beck's huge gathering years ago and Michele Bachmann was able to get a few thousands to surround the Capitol, but since nothing ever came of those events coupled with the GOP continuing to select Boner as Speaker, plus electing and sending a GOP to "Teddie Swimmer's" seat and nothing has come from any of those actions. I believe conservatives (like me) have taken an attitude of "What is the use - the current generation does not believe like WE do, so I am the new minority" when it comes to self-governance.

NO, I do not see any uprising by Conservatives - the time is long past for something to occur. Enjoy the ride down (sorry for the pessimism, but I cannot help myself any longer).
