I’d be happy if we had 2 parties instead of 1.
____________

Then work inside the Republican party to make that happen.

“Then work inside the Republican party to make that happen.”

I’d prefer that the Republican Party start working with us, instead of against us.

I will never again give to the RNC. I will never again let them funnel my money to RINOs, who are going to attack TEA party candidates.

I will judge a candidate by the content of his character, and his voting record, not the R next to his name.

I’d gladly swap a Zell Miller for any number of R’s.

Maybe that’s how we should do it, have a draft, like the NFL... We’ll trade you 1 Johnny McCain for a couple 2nd round draft picks....

Make sure you let them know why you aren’t giving them money. Give money to Republican tea party candidates. Volunteer for them...do what it takes...

But make no mistake, a vote for a third party is a vote for B. Hussein Obama. I don’t care if the third party candidate is a reincarnated Ronald Reagan....voting a third party in the presidential election means Barry wins.

So, if Romney gets the nomination, and Palin runs 3rd party, you’d pull the trigger for Romney?

Exactly. Sounds like an Alinsky tactic to divide and conquer, giving Barry a second term.....

The best offer I got for McCain was a warm beer....

Yes, agreed, we made great strides forward. But, how many kicks to the teeth do we have to take (in case Bohner takes the “deal” they’re throwing out there) before we say enough is enough?

They are all liberal groups. Look at who is running them.

“But the Dems as a party will fall first.”

No they will not. They are an unabashed party of vice, larceny and tyranny, and they deliver those things to their constituents.

“....Or a complete “take-over” from the tea party movement.”

You optimists will just have to learn the hard way. The GOP nomenklatura will keep you outside, just as they have frustrated all grassroots and conservative supporters and members for three generations now. Reforming the GOP is akin to repairing a broken axe by replacing both the worn out head and the broken handle.

New wine, new wineskin. You will see.

That was a different time and another world. Zell Miller would have changed to the GOP if he had been younger, with more time to serve. The Dem leadership CONTROLS their members. A lot of them are dumb as rocks -- those members who can speak a complete sentence are trotted out to the cameras with their talking points. THERE is no free thought on the Left.

The GOP backbone seems to be growing on the Hill -- those members see how the governors are doing it and WINNING.
