Reality is,that there are NOT enough far righties,in this nation,to do anything except hand election after election,on a silver platter,to the Dems,into perpetuity,should they all go third party and divide the GOP.And therein lies another fallacy.There aren't enough righties,who would join only one coalition of fringers.

Fortunately,or unfortunately,depending upon one's viewpoint,Libertarians and Constitution Party people and Patsies and the Christian Right,and one issue voters and whomever else might go fringe,are so diametrically opposed with one another,that this is the fool's gold of fringe day dreaming.Then,there is the problem of a candidate.It would have to be someone who is charismatic and has gravitas.That's a HUGE order,which no one could fill.

And then there's money.Political campaigns cost BIG BUCKS!

We either stand together or get damned Dems.We must get HUGE majorities in both House and hold the White House.Then and ONLY then,can we work on dulling the RINOS,whilst realizing that certain parts of this nation will NEVER elect a staunch Conservative,even though they will support a moderate to RINO Republican.

At times I have a hard time telling dems and RINOs apart..and once the RINOs get in, it's incredibly hard to get them out.

I'd say it was worth having a dem in the White House for 4-8 years if in the process we could force the RINOs out of the GOP and return the GOP to its Conservative roots. After all, we've had liberal Presidents in the not too distant past. Some people foam at the mouth just thinking about a liberal President (you'd think that 2004 was the first election they were old enough to vote in), but if it meant getting control of the GOP, it'd be worth it (just watch, somebody will be unable to respond to that intelligently and will start making personal attacks against me, lol).

If we don't start acting now, we will have a police state, and it won't be the doing of the liberals. The RINOs are just a big of fans of big and intrusive government.

Nobody,in Maine,for example,is going to elect a faaaaaaar righty GOPer to either House.And that's just one state where that is a fact of life.And yes,even RINOS can bed useful,because we need a large majority in both Houses AND the White House!

Having Kerry in the White House,is NOT going to get you strong,staunch Conservatives elected to both Houses.What it WILL get you,are extreme lefty Supreme Court Justices and judges,not to mention losing the WoT,higher taxes,and a whole bunch of other horrible things.

Was it really worth having 8 years of Clinton? Some might say yes,considering that the GOPers were able to,on the third try and with a whole lot of help from wee Dickie Morris the toe sucker,get a welfare reform Bill passed and signed;not to mention the GOP ascendancy in both Houses.But was that worth Ruth Badder Ginsberg,selling/giving our secrets to the Chinese,pardoning terrorists and thieves,and 9/11,to name but a few of Clinton's legacies?

Some people seem to think that their daydreams could be come reality,with wishing.That's a fool's paradise and not reality.If onlies don't usually come to fruition and your newest wee wrinkle doesn't take into account that which dooms it to absolute failure and worse.
