This is not Fred’s fault.

It is the fault of conservatives that do not get involved in their state parties to prevent independents from controlling the Iowa, NH and SC primaries.

It is the fault of conservatives that have not stepped up to take control of the Republican Party away from those more concerned with garnering power or being liked.

It is the fault of conservatives that do not get informed about the candidates and vote (like most everyone) on the basis of popularity.

It is the fault of conservatives that a man wins primaries because he is not ashamed of expousing his religious beliefs while getting a pass for his position on the issues.

It is the fault of conservatives who support a man based on his looks, wealth and business acumen rather than his historical stance on the issues.

It is the fault of conservatives who back a candidate that did the right thing in the face of tragedy.....he led people with confidence and strength....but never found too many conservative principles worth fighting for.

It is the fault of conservatives that take an “all or nothing” mentality to the issues rather than embracing incrementalism like our opponents have employed so successfully.

Fred is out because conservatives did not step up.

The Republican Party is ours for the taking, but conservatives are typically averse to overt activism.

If you want to blame everyone else for the lack of conservatives in this race, you are more like the “no personal responsibility” liberals than you think.

Right ...

Looking at your sig The Democratic Party will not exist in a few years....we are watching history unfold before us

I'm thinking you're right, it will most probably be replaced by the Ministries of Truth, Peace, Love and Plenty ... ring a bell for you?

The democrat party will still be here.
It is the GOP that will be gone.

Hell, it appears to gone right now as a counterpoint to the left.

Personally, I will not support leftist candidates - I do believe that everyone on the GOP ballot right now from Mitt - forced health care for all of us and WE pay - to McCain - forced amnesty for all and WE pay - are far enough to the left that I do not care who is elected any more.

Mitt looks great - nice hair - but the results of his governing are no different than hillary’s.

McCain must have this poster on his wall:
“Ayn gav bli pigyon”
Translated: “No back without a dagger in it.”
Rudy and huckabee are known commodities to all.

May the GOP have good luck in it's future endevours.
I'm sitting at home with my wallet closed and my vote my own.
