I understand political math and logic.

No, you don't. I clearly and succinctly explained to you that Chuck DeVore has been running for 11 months. He has no money, has not generated the Tea Party & grassroots support like Rand Paul and Marco Rubio has, and is running 3rd in a leftist state. When you see what Sarah has seen, you would understand why she made the decision she did. It has nothing to do with "supporting RINOs," because Sarah has endorsed far more conservatives than RINOs. In fact, not including the McCain endorsement, Carly is the only RINO she has endorsed, and furthermore she's not even a RINO because she has no prior public service on which to base that on.

Your plan B is not working, has not been working for decades. How many times do you advocate running head-on into the same wall?

I don't advocate supporting RINOs bub. If this was a two-man race and DeVore was behind Campbell and Sarah would have endorsed Campbell, I would have went ballistic. This is just one race with unusual circumstances, not something that should be done nationally.

Stand for your convictions, support them always and people will follow. Have you noticed with your approach how many are now registered as decline to state voters? What party do you think a majority of those voters came from, why did they leave and why do they stay home in such large numbers on election day?

I have and Sarah has. Why do you think there's the Tea Parties to begin with? The Republican Party has been put on notice and a lot of new Republican challengers are solid conservatives.

You are still supposed to support Devore. And when the GOP realizes that going against the base is going to cost them an election, they will listen the next time.

Do I need to remind you what happened to Quayle when he made his Murphey Brown speech. As soon as the media pounced on Quayle, with the exception of Kissinger, Kirkpatrick and a few others, the GOP "compromisers" ran like cock roaches when the media lights turned on.

It was Bill Clinton who years later came out and said Quayle was right on Murphy Brown.

These people you say we should support for the good of the party will not even stand by us in the face of an obvious conservative truth like Quayle uttered.

Support Devore and people like him or we continue to lose. People like you are destroying - have destroyed - the GOP. Incrementalism only works if you get movement. You approach has gotten none in decades.

As for your suggestion that the Republican party has been put on notice, I have history on my side of that argument. But we don't have to guess. Let's mark our calendars a year from the election and come back to this discussion. I bet I will be proved correct?

And you most certainly are supporting the RINO wing of the party.
