Every 10-12 years, the RNC has to do some house cleaning.
Care to give us some documented examples of when the RNC did such a thing? Or is this just a figment of your imagination.
Bush's term is over in "08 and the party will be forced to abandon it's extreme right wing to move to the center where the general electorate is.
Care to explain how one goes about such a purge?
Also, it will be in response to the DNC move to the center as well.
Sorry, bub. The DNC and its congressional leadership went irretreivably left quite some time ago. They don't know the way back.
It will be quite a battle for supremacy, and nobody that belongs to this so called true conservative wing of the party will be happy with the candidates that emerge from the primary fights.
Do you write fiction for a living?
The candidates will both be centrists, and both the extreme left wing and the right wing of each party will be alienated. There will be a mad scramble on both sides for third parties, and the winner will be chosen as a result of who is split worse, and who has more apathetic voters stay home.
Spoken with the confidence of a prophet.
I can't, at this time predict who that will be.
Crystal ball go fuzzy?
It depends on how many blue dog Democrats we pick up...
Hey, you might get all six of them that are left!
We are certain to suffer some severe loss in seats, but we may be able to hold on to the reigns.
"Reigns"? Hah...
One thing is clear. The Republican party will not look like it does today.
Without conservatives, what is left of it will look like a trial-size Democrat Party.
We cannot win elections with a somewhat large segment that is at war with the rest of the party.
Looks to me, reading your posts, that it is YOU that is "at war" with the majority in the GOP.
We cut Buchanan loose during the last upheaval...
Delusions of grandeur.
...and I would think that this cut will be much larger and deeper, based on the rhetoric coming from right wing congress critters.
Your repeated use of the word "right-wing" in a derogatory manner says much about where you're coming from.
The RNC needs to stop pussy footing and start playing hardball, or we will lose.
The RNC and its affiliates has never stopped "playing hardball" against conservatives. In fact, it is that very attitude that has led us to where we are now. And your solution to the bleeding is to cut the victim some more. Just brilliant.
We need to look this in the eye and take it to it's ultimate conclusion now, before it is too late to rebuild the base for the '08 general elections.
You're about five years behind Rove, and too ignorant to know that Rove's similiar plan died in the streets with marching illegal aliens...
...if we don't, it will be 2012 before we see power again.
You're from what I call the PIG wing of the party, obviously: "Power Is God".
And you expect me to respond to that?
Take a hike.......
