In case’s like that we keep lighting fires under their butts until they are so scared of us they start voting the country first and get along to go along last.
Thanks to all who have responded to my admitted vitriol for Chris Christie this morning, even those who take issue with me.
But I’m tired of Republicans who are far quicker to attack conservatives in their own party than lefties among the Demoviks.
My position is that Christie is a classic Rino in that he runs as a conservative and governs (or legislates) as a liberal—ala Schwarzenegger, McCain, Graham, you all know the rest....
FReepers list Giuliani as one of these people and I agree he is a Rino — but when did he ever attack a conservative?? If I’m wrong about this, point it out, fine. But I say you can be a Rino and not attack fellow Republicans for being conservatives—the classic McCain position.
Let’s face it: our chances of getting a conservative nominee in 2012 are in full-scale dwindle at this point, about ready to reach “sprial down” before going into Absolute Freefall.
All these internecine attacks on Palin will do is make Huckabee or Romney the nominee. Then, either one of them loses to Obamsky pure and simple.
What is our realpolitik fallback here?
Is it to start working to force Obamsky to the Right, understanding that we are stuck with him for 6 more years—??
This seems to be the doctrinaire Republican position at this point.
I’d rather go third party and I wish now Palin had done that after stepping down as governor. If nothing else, she would have run in 2012 in such manner to destroy the Republican party FOREVER—and wouldn’t THAT be a start???
