What happened to the "fire in the belly" of the GOP?

They're saving that for campaign season. Then, they'll flame us within an inch of our lives, if we so much as hint at holding their feet to the fire, as they present us with RINO party hacks to "support". If we balk, they will laugh in our faces, and say, "What are you gonna do, elect Hillary?"

They figure they OWN "the base" and its votes, just like the DNC owns "the Black vote." We can go screw ourselves, as they go a-panderin' after every Democrat faction on earth. Why should they do anything for US? Remember, they own OUR votes. It's the liberals they need to woo. So, it's the liberals they suck-up to.

Some things never change -- although I suspect this time, one thing that will change is the "ownership issue." I think a lot of "owned" voters have just about had it up to here, and are NOT gonna take it anymore.

But, maybe I'm wrong. I guess we'll find out after the coming elections.

"They're saving that for campaign season."

Maybe Zell Miller Redux?

You can count me as being among them.

This is one voter who is not "owned". I am quite sure I am not alone in this view. There is the Beltway GOP and their elitist ilk and there is the Flyover GOP walking behind trying to clean up the mess.
