The base was weak last election but the GOP leadership didn't get the clue. This time the base will walk if a RINO is the candidate.

The question is what is the base? The GOP certainly doesn't consider Conservatives the base since they have already abandon Conservative principles.

In my estimation, revolution happens in the party when Conservatives gain control. Thereafter, bit by bit, our representatives' resolve is eroded by lobbyists and business concerns, and the never ending desire to make it bigger, better, faster, stronger. In their quest to wield power, they sacrifice the one thing they need to truly retain power- They sacrifice their principles. Soon the Rockefeller wing takes power... Business without conscience. In order to consolidate position, they loft RINO candidates. As the base grows less enamored, the vote gets tighter till control slips away and is lost until another conservative coup... And so it goes.

This time however, I believe things are dangerously different. Our businesses have grown beyond our borders and have become a global entity in their own right. Their involvement with Socialist China and Europe have given them pause- They have subscribed to "new" ideas that are definitely un-American.

They have long desired to shear away the limiting bonds of conscience the Conservative Right have imposed upon them, and are now actively seeking to do so using the compromise with Socialism forged and proven in the successes of Hong Kong.

Big Business has never been our ally, and has now found a way to loosen it's chaffing collar and throw off it's leash. If we do not recognize that fact and work to defy it, it will surely break free of all control and conscience.

The Rockefeller wing must be subdued. They must be forced to cede power, and conservatives must win the day. Once in power we must fight tooth and nail to preserve our sovereignty and restore our country to it's proper course. To elect a RINO is exactly the same thing as electing a Liberal Democrat. We fail to recognize that at our peril, and ensure our doom to do otherwise.
