Did anyone see the Republican Congressman named Ryan speaking about cleaning out the Party to return to the Conservative roots for the next election? He mentioned a web site and I missed it last night. I am interested in joining him in his quest. Asking for help.
A congressional district in Central NJ had a true conservative running. He barely got out of the double digits while the moderate republican won big time against the dem.
I live in that district and was glad the conservative didn’t enable the dem to win.
I remember when Jeffrey Hart said Bush was not a conservative, but a “Christian socialist.” People on FR bashed him for saying that, but it was the truth.
I live in that district and was glad the conservative didn't enable the Dem to win.
Did he run as a 3rd party in the general, or was that in the primary? If it was in the primary, he probably did not have the Party endorsement and backing, I am not telling you but asking.
I've been to County and State Political meetings and they can be brutal, if your not "one of them", if you know what I mean.
Don’t ask me for proof, but I would guess that most Republicans in Congress are to the left of FDR. And doesn’t it disgust you when some Republican pays homage to that devil.
What and who are your definition of the extreme right?
Got many robo calls for the guy...Hsing........don’t know the details. Just know he lost big.
NJ is a cess pool. We are grateful to get Garrett back and at least we have Lance instead of Stender the spender.
Abortion is NO LONGER a states’ rights issue because Roe took it away from the states. Unless you repeal Roe, it will never be a state’s rights issue. And the judges and full faith and credit clause are doing the same with gay “marriage”.
I’m sorry, but I will simply not tolerate that kind of attitude in the Republican party ever again. I stand by what I said.
I saw his signs down in the Princeton area yesterday, man that is a rough area to a Conservative to run in, with all the parasites running, I mean ruining the State, in Trenton and the lib's teaching at Princeton.
that’s why i want no more Bushes ever, even if Jeb is considered to be the best one of the lot.
The district has been realigned many times. It snakes thru many towns with no coherent electorate.
I know what you mean, I'm from Carteret, and my district was carved from Union City down to Perth Amboy, to include as much Hispanics for Bob Menendez. Now we have the ex-mayor of West New York, Albio Sirios, same difference.
Some of you FReepers are so deranged - GET OVER IT!!
So True!! We need to be SMALL GOVERNMENT FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE ADULTS. We should not be the JUDGE of MORALITY, who cares if two gays are living together. If you don't like it - don't do it!!! It does NOT affect my MARRIAGE to my wife!!
I have to agree with WellyP, you Social conservatives are the reason the GOP lies in ruins today! Fiscal Conservatives and small government conservatives had enough you your SOCIAL VIEWS. Start a F’ing RELIGIOUS PARTY, you guys are BIG GOVERNMENT CONSERVATIVES and Huckabee was the straw that broke my back - Americans should eat healthier, hey Huckabee if I want to go to McDonald’s I have the RIGHT you dumb a$$ religious nut!
The religious-type conservative will NEVER win in New England. The next conservative from New England will be a libertarian-type conservative.
I couldn't stand Huckabee. And I'm anything but big government.
Get used to us religious conservatives. We ain't gonna let ourselves get kicked around anymore. Take it up with the Dems if that upsets you.
If we conservatives don’t recognize the reality of our districts and/or our states we can never win.
All the rhetoric, all the bombast against the libs will bring us nothing.
Clearly, more than half the country doesn’t give a damn about the unborn, the military, or our national security.
Ron Paul did but conservatives maligned him as a kook and nutcase.
