I am suspicious of the broken party refrain I am seeing on threads. And the constant condemnation of people in the party,,it feels subversive. LIke people are trying to gin up defections to a third party or hopelessness.

I think O is going to present a wonderful opportunity for a grand slam next year. ANd if we allow fractures to happen over inability to have a big tent, we won’t capitalize on it.

THe constant refrain of throw out the rinos, the pop off remarks about anyone who is not enamored with a particular candidate, the insults, etc. All designed to foment hopelessness and ill feelings.

I personally think that anyone would be better than Obama. Even McCain would have been better. And those who insist on their candidate, who threaten not to vote, who insult and act like thugs to people who support someone else do nothing but cause us to lose.

End of rant.

I understand your frustration. But we must be realistic if we want to make anything better.

The party is broken. Period. And it will stay broken as long as the RINOs and libs run it. Is the party learning anything now? Well, we have Mitch [no stones] McConnell endorsing Charlie [the ersatz Republican] Crist for the Senate. Hell's bells, these guys are from the same club that got us where we are now. Just what we need, more McCains, McConnells, and their ilk. Jeez, we practically had to storm McConnell's office with pitchforks to get him to come out against amnesty. And even then he didn't do that until the last moment. Michael Steele certainly hasn't fired up the base. We have Megan McCain running around sounding like she is a paid lobbyist for the DNC and no one in the party has the guts to criticize her. Assuming anyone actually disagrees or cares. We have major Republican members of the Senate publicly saying they believe The Wise Latina is a bad jurist but that they will still vote for her.

And you wonder why some of us nearly puke when we say GOP?

I fully support your rant, especially the last paragraph.

THANK YOU! I, too, get sick and tired of these holier-than-thou type idiots on here who think that if you don't support their particular candidate (usually Ron Paul or Duncan Hunter), than you're not a "real" conservative. Real conservatives get behind the most conservative candidate who stands a chance of winning, and go for the gold. They don't whine and complain and undermine and screech like harpies because their guy didn't win.

Usually, these are the same type of people who just want to complain about the Republican Party instead of actually doing anything to retake the GOP for conservatism. Worthless losers, in my estimation. No, they're worse than worthless because in the process of exercising their worthlessness, they are also undermining the morale of the conservative movement as a whole.
