Potential 3rd party candidates in 12 ?

Posted on 11/15/2010 12:40:29 PM PST by se_ohio_young_conservative

This is a message to the RNC and any potential Palin haters. Many of us will look for a 3rd party candidate if the GOP settles for another John McCain or even another "compassionate conservative" in the mold of George W. Bush. We want the real thing this time and Sarah Palin is real.

We will split the vote. And we will take as many of we can with us.

This is not a threat. This is warning.

As for potential 3rd candidates. I would even vote for someone like Alan Keyes if he takes another shot at is. Perhaps Tancredo. Donald Trump has expressed intrest, but I think he is way too left on social issues for me. Maybe someone like John Bolton ?

I will say it. I would rather lose the 2012 election than sell out to the liberals, RINOs and MSM.

Oh yes they do. They can have an impact on the nomination process, esp if it ever made it to the convention.

beyond the RNC. I am also warning anti Palin republicans who may walk to the polls on a snowy winter evening in Iowa.

they need to stop trying to appease the media.

If thats what the anti Palin people want. I guess so. Would you sell your soul to win an election ?

If she doesn't run or isn't nominated, them's the facts.
You would throw the country to wolves because of that?

Would you sell your soul to win an election ?

If you equate not having Palin on the ballot to selling
your soul, you have deeper troubles than I care to address.

No thanks. I won’t tell my children that I caused Obama to win another term by voting for a 3rd party candidate. I want my children to spend their lives in the greatest country on Earth, not a country brought to its knees by a Marxist.

The only way to make them care is to become an activist, get on the inside of the Republican Party, with likeminded friends, and change the party from within.

I'd like to see one or two real Americans get that ball rolling and then watch when they got a whole lot of their supporters into office:

I'm watching, and my vote depends on the final answer from the GOP: Pelosi/Reid/Obama won't listen to the people, will the GOP listen to the people.

I feel the same, however, I don’t want to settle for a liberal Republican. And it would be nice for my daughters to grow up in an America where a conservative christian woman can be President.

I am assuming she will run. All indications are that she will run. If she doesn’t, nevermind. ill find another conservative to get behind within the party if I can find one.

I know people who feel the same way about this. If the party rejects Palin, we will reject the party.

thats reality

How about THE NOMINEE?

If it turns out to be SpongeBob against Obama..

Would you throw away your vote on some picklehead "principle" candidate
(or worse.. write-in) and thus throw the prize to Obama?

Me, I'd have a HELL of hard time voting for Romney. I'm an anti-Mormon bigot.
Plus he's a RINO and a healthcare socialist. I'd have to be drunk to vote for him.

But God willing he won't be the nominee. Pence, Gingrich, Bolton..

It's really too early to be crying about this.

But you seem to be saying it's either Palin or scrap it all.
And that's stupid.

if Palin doesn’t run. I will most likely support our nominee.

I used to hate the 3rd party idea. I was on here 2 or 3 years ago sparing with Bob Barr and Ron Paul folks that McCain was better than Obama. you are only helping Obama. Then there was a turning point. I saw how the media treated Palin. Then I saw her trashed by Republicans on this site and others who are supposed to be on our side. After all she went through for being one of us ? we cant let it be all for nothing. we have to poke the media and liberals in the eye for what they did.

Last I looked she wasn't on food stamps or living in a homeless shelter.

The problem is Palin's approval rating with the general public is horrid.

Can she build a large enough coalition to beat Obama? Doubtful with a 50+ negative approval rating.

we need to get those people to come along. I am convinced if the economy is still poor, they will come along.

Lets face it we all need to vote Republican even if they run a corpse. Another 4 years of Oblablah is not an option.

“The ball is in the RNC’s court. Not mine.”

The individuals candidates decide to run or not to run, not the RNC.

The voters decide who wins the primaries in each state.

Now you threaten if your candidate can’t win the primaries, you will destroy the chances for others?

What an immature, naive, inexperienced attitude, young one.

Apparently in the minority, I agree with you. The Republican Establishment is going to pick a CFR- approved, global insider, elitist candidate, who may or may not win the Presidency (probably will not against Obama) but still be a government dork. (Oh how refreshing it would have been for Christine O'Donnell to ask her fundamental questions out loud in the Senate Chambers - it is the values which matter not the personal slickness.)

The absolutely most critical thing is to get an articulate, committed conservative candidate, who knows exactly what conservatism is (individual responsibility as opposed to government authority), and publicly slams that home on the national stage, on every issue, so that no one can filter, spin, or hide the message.

There is good chance that person will not win anything because of the stupid universal egocentric abyss we as a nation have fallen into. (Does anyone think JFK's "don't ask what your country - " has much winning traction these days?) But at least those who face the truth about themselves, about our nation, will go down swinging.

The Republican Establishment is just another class of furtively funded, government obsessed politicians; how obvious is that? Thus the Tea Party.

There is nothing magical, only contrived, about two political parties.
