With respect, cut the crap.
Dr. Keyes, as much as I actually admire the guy (and I actually do...), represents about 15% of the Party. If he represented any more, he'd be a power within the Party. As such, he got laid off by MSNBC.
Look, I know you worked for the guy and respect him. He was a UN ambassador and a respected rhetoritician within the Party. But he is not a serious politician. Serious politicians are men who are willing to give and take. Alan Keyes is All Apocalypse, All the Time.
Finally, I did not call Idaho Republicans Nazis, and you know it. You're building a straw man. I said that there were probably supremacists within the CP (and I strongly suspect that I am right).
As to the Libertarians, I don't care what they think. Those bastards cost us votes the last go-round, so they can take their meds and kiss my butt.
Be Seeing You,
Chris

With respect, cut the crap. With respect, that was my intention for posting on this thread in the first place. There is crap all over the place.

Without quibbling about your numbers, it is hard for me to understand how you could consider someone who represents such a large fraction of the the ruling coalition of America to not be 'a power'. It is also hard for me to understand why you, or others who claim to care about the President's reelection, think it is okay to throw brickbats at this group, or willy-nilly group them in any way with those who have made themselves the enemy of the GOP.

Whatever. The thousands of Republicans, including many FReepers, who will crowd the ballroom at CPAC tomorrow morning to hear Dr. Keyes will overwhelmingly reject your harsh criticism, as will millions of conservative Americans.

Hmmm...that certainly is not how I read the content or the attitude of your posts. And your 'strong suspicions' certainly still don't represent proof...they are nothing more than specious and malicious innuendo.
