The Republican Party will nominate whoever wins the primaries...the one who gets the most votes...the most popular one...etc, etc, etc.
If you don't approve of the candidate, then something is wrong with YOU - you're in the wrong party. Start your own party. It's your duty as a party member to go with the majority of party members. Until you can sway a majority of party members of your views, you're SOL.
Everyone complains about the makeup of the electorate and blames them or the party instead of themselves. If things are beyond your control then you had no power in the first place. If you really care, then gain some power by making a difference. Don't expect THEM to come to YOU, especially if you're in the minority of the party. You have to run a grassroots campaign to get your minority viewpoints approved by the majority.
This is a largely democratic political system. If the majority of party members would like a particular candidate to run, they will run whether you like it or not.
A majority of party members DO agree with my views. Its Rudy whores like you who have been trying to convince them that they must give up those principles in order to win against Hillary.
You've got some nerve telling people loyal conservative Republicans, who are the core of the party, that THEY are the problem when RINO enablers like yourself are why the Republican party is no longer the party of Reagan.

If the Republican party abandons conservatism, that's true. I'm sure many of us will be happy to leave it if that happens.
But, we know what the Republican party stands for or stood for if one looks at its platform. When one does, one find its RINO Rudy that is in the wrong party.
Jawohl, Herr Kommissar.
I and many others place principles over party, and this is why in 2003 I left the Republican party. I am now a conservative independent.
