“Gallup: 59% of Republicans want GOP to become more conservative”

Which the GOP ptb will take as the perfect opportunity to slink even further left.

“What I want to know is this: who are the knuckleheads that are in the other 41%??”

KentTrappedinLiberalSeattle, I might just be BobTrappedinLiberalMassachusetts.

I am not one of those 59%. EVERY single conservatives up here that I know feel the same way.

And I know a lot of them.

That means no RINO/liberals like Romney, McCain, Guliani, Paul, Huckabee..

The only redeeming factor for McCain, Paul and Huckabee was their proven record as pro-lifers...

There’s up and coming conservative leaders out there ...

And we desparately need them now...

Palin, Cantor, Jindal, Steele...

Traditional values are timeless and will always be appealing - except to those who want to destroy them.

It never fails to amaze how some consider themselves self-appointed high-priests of conservative political correctness.

It may be that they are the biggest RHINOs of all.

Wars are won by focusing on the enemy and growing the forces against it, not by feverishly and foolishly attacking one’s own forces.

Obama won because GOP voters stayed home, in droves.

Palin could have beaten Obama. No kidding.

Gallup forgot to mention that 30% of the people he polled were democrats.

Hunt the RINO’S state by state, if you’re a conservative politician in Arizona reading this, run against McCain in the 2010 primary.

I and 1000 other FReepers will drop everything and go to work for ACORN for you signing up “voters” in Arizona.

EMail from Congressman Eric Cantor, VA (R)... Nov 20

Dear Friend,

Yesterday I was elected Republican Whip by my colleagues in Congress. The Whip is the second ranking Republican position in the U.S. House. I want to again thank you for all your help and support. With out you, none of this is possible.

My number one priority is and always will be serving Virginia’s Seventh District. My commitment to excellent constituent service and attention to the people I represent will never change.

It is my hope that this leadership position will provide a broader platform to advocate for the values and principles the people of the Seventh District believe in.

The Whip position will allow me to refocus our party on fiscal discipline, smaller government and increasing our families’ prosperity. I firmly believe that we need to focus on commonsense solutions to the problems facing middle class Americans.

When the new Congress convenes in January, our nation will still be faced with economic turmoil at home and challenges abroad. We need leadership not partisanship in Washington. Our role as Republicans is to work with the new President where we can find common ground. It is also our role to serve as a check and balance on the excesses of the Obama-Pelosi team in Washington.

I thank you again for all your help and support and I look forward to seeing you soon.

(Signed)

Vague promises of “excellent constituent service,” “attention to the people I represent,” “values and principles,” “fiscal discipline,” “smaller government,” “prosperity,” “commonsense solutions.”

Bleh. Any Democrat could dish out the same meaningless pap. And they do, every day.
