The GOP keeps going liberal because the base says "where else are you going to go".

These Bushbots want me to hold my nose and pull the lever for these liberal Republicans. Wish they would spend that much energy trying to get the RINOs to go right instead.

Go Constitution Party for a change.

So do I. I believe they'll get the message before the fall, but the RINOs (especially career ones) are largely a reflection of their constituents.

Go Constitution Party for a change.

No way. You third party advocates slay me. It's easy to drop out and play the dressed in black from head to toe, disenfranchised, "I'm too cool for the estabishment", Trenchcoat Mafia type. Why not do the work you wish for above instead of being marginalized with the fringe like La Rouche, The Green Pary, The Reform Party, Libertarians, etc....

You need to realize the populous views third parties the same way they view "multilevel marketing company" salespeople. Sure, they make money and seem legit; but most people feel deep down inside it's a monumental scam and want nothing to do with it. Enjoy your next "seminar" and keep buying those tapes.

Fine if the GOP offers you a GOP-funded Lincoln Chafee. But if they offer you a fairly conservative candidate who is less than 100% conservative, you have to weigh that too.

For voters like me, I have a Club For Growth candidate in an open seat for Congress and I have a deep-pockets GOP candidate up against a faux-conservative Democrat incumbent. So despite the fact that the Stupid Party has done so little to deserve my loyalty, I really have no right to abandon my own GOP candidates in this state just to make a pointlessly principled conservative vote.

But your mileage will vary. My choices are luckier than many have.
