This concept can be the biggest threat to the RINO's and Corrupt in Congress.

People in this forum and blogs nationwide are outraged that we have gotten to this point in our Nations History. The Republicans in Congress have become so out of touch, so comfortable in their rolls and have failed to listen to US, the backbone of the Party.

It is not time to quit, it is time to get up off our apathy, stop being keyboard activists and take our Country back.

I have started the website, it is just the beginning, we need your help. We need to list the RINOs and the corrupt that we need to target for defeat in the primary of 2010.

Believe me the RINOS are done. The GOP is done. A new movement will surface and the bums will go the way of the Whigs.

I’ve bookmarked the site. You are right on. Our party is dead in the water and has done almost as much damage as the left. Let’s roll.

Thanks! I agree, but we need good conservative leadership, and
right now I don’t even know if there’s anyone who qualifies!

Very true that it will take a revolt to turn things around.
When the ax starts falling on everything this country currently
stands for, maybe we’ll have a chance of a revolt succeeding.
If I don’t sound optimistic, it’s because I am not at this point.

The only people capable of dropping everything they are currently doing to run for office, are those with money. Unfortunately, it does seem that the people with money are not your staunch conservatives, but instead RINOs who are willing to cut too many deals that will benefit their family fortune.

Wouldn't it be refreshing to see "regular Joes" with staunch conservative values running for office? That is why Sarah Palin was so popular.

What do we have to do in order to get more "regular Joes" elected to office?

Over the next six years, we have to start focusing on beating every incumbent politician in their next elections. This means defeating some Republicans, but we need new ideas and people with the proper sense of direction.

If we want out nation back, these are some things that we have to do.

I think it’s too late to save the Republican Party. The leadership is too entrenched and too stupid and enslaved to their personal perks, power and priveleges to listen to folks like us. There’s a small minority of folks in DC who I would like to see form the kernal of a new conservative party. The rest can go to hell.

No, we’re not in a cycle. The nation is in uncharted waters, and nothing is the same. That’s part of the problem....everyone thinks this is just a cycle that will end, and the pendulum will swing back. Hence, we get posters like this one who want to employ the same old tactics, as if we’re going to be living under the same set of rules.

They may be done but how do you plan on keeping them out of office and keeping the seat in Republican hands.

You do it by running a Conservative against them in the primary. That is what we are looking for.

We can intimidate them into voting the way they are supposed to vote. How many issues are the democrats and Obama gonna bring up in the next year or two that will help bury this country?

The very threat of them being challenged in the primary can and will help sway their votes.

but over the past eight years they proved that once in DC, they throw their constituents under the bus.

They threw their constituents under the bus about 90 days after swear-in back in 1994. They had 12 years, not eight.

How many members of the Constitution Party are currently in office? The Constitution Party needs to back our Conservatives in the primary. The general election is not the place to wage war like this. The Primary is where they are most vulnerable.
