No conservative - no vote

The big question that spawned many pundit opinions after Romney lost the presidential election: what happened to the four million Republican voters who didn’t vote for him?

To be honest, since Bush’s second-term win, there has been a steady decline in Republican voters in presidential elections, but that still doesn’t answer the question.

The blunt answer is that many “conservative” Republicans have grown tired of putting up faux support for RINO presidential candidates. This has turned into a snowball effect and will culminate in an even larger number of conservative Republicans not voting again in 2016 if there is another RINO presidential candidate foisted upon them by establishment Republicans and the liberal media.

Well, yep, that is something I could do.

That is a good idea.

Still I am ferociously against Bush. I mean I cannot even tolerate the thought of this man as president.

I thought to myself many years ago as I saw that whole thing unfold what if that was my mom in that hospital bed?

I have to stop thinking about that, because it makes me furious.

Anyway, no Jeb.

Exactly.

If the GOP nominates a RINO, I’d bet we’re crossing the point of no return.. if we haven’t already.

Top Ten Things Americans Said When They Heard Mitt Romney Wants To Run For President

10. The same Mitt Romney?

9. I like the idea of a president who can't take a hint

8. Shouldn't he let someone else lose?

7. Maybe he just likes traveling the country by bus

6. Does he know it's my Michaels' birthday on Friday?

5. He's more qualified now after four years of doing nothing

4. Great news! (Democrats only)

3. Whatever pills he's taking, I want some

2. Finally, someone who can save us from low unemployment, falling gas prices and a record high stock market.

1. This time I think he'll beat Obama

I see it like this...if one of the aforementioned RINOs gets the nomination, I will still go to the polls and vote...with a write-in, like Cruz, for instance.

Here’s my point, if the conservatives just “stay home”, the pundits will just spend the next four years trying to figure out “why?”. However, if a write-in happens to garner a few million votes it will be very plain, even to the brain-dead GOPe why THEIR guy lost.

The TEA party has been asleep for the most part. We had a pretty good run in November only to have O’Boehner slap us down.

Want to demonstrate the power of the conservatives, then grab YOUR PHONE AND YOUR PEN and write a conservative.

We might not win on a third party cote, but we can sure as hell make the RINOs loose!
