blah, blah, blah....just keep being fooled by the republican party and you’ll get a chance to vote for another “mccain”. But I bet you’ll never be invited to the Boner/obama golf outings or the Boner/Barney Frank cocktail party.

“...just keep being fooled by the republican party....”

Sorry pal, but I AM the Republican Party. I don’t like some of the leadership, nor some of the elected officials, but I AM the Republican party. From the inside I can change the things I don’t like.....and little by little it will change....It’s what the TEA Party movement, whose identity is overwhelming Republican, is all about. Changing the American political culture.

“But I bet you’ll never be invited to the Boner/obama golf...”

You’re right I won’t. But I’ll have a voice at the table when decisions are made. You, Mr 3rd party irrelevant, won’t. Nope, keep voting for the fringe candidates and enjoy your political invisability. While you stand out in the cold, I’ll be inside pushing a Conservative agenda on the people that are setting the table.

Rino’s a problem??? Yep, but no more so than gutless conservatives that won’t stand and fight..... Those last seen in a headlong rout for the hinterland forest of fringe political folly. Less than useless.

Here’s a toast to those that can’t influence events, and who do not matter by their own misguided choice. Stand out back with the pets, maybe you’ll get the chance at a well gnawed bone.

blah, blah, blah.....you’re words are nothing. Your vote is nothing because you don’t stand on principle. You vote for any democrat who has an “R” behind his name. And you end up with a useless Boehner. But you are loved by the republicans because they see you as one of their useful idiots. Just remember that when you send them money and when you pull the lever for Romney.

I’ll repeat...I voted for McCain and wasted my vote.

“Your vote is nothing because you don’t stand on principal.”

Nonsense.... you equate voting for 3rd party loons as standing on principal. LOLOLOL

False premise, but at least I understand that you would rather sit on the sidelines, waving a pompom for the waterboy and not enter the game yourself, than get in there and fight raising the possibility of being bruised. Working for Conservative candidates is too hard for you....Conservative change isn’t worth it. Self interest portrayed as principled courage is. A couple of losses and you’ve turned tail and run. “I’ve seen the elephant, got scared, and run!.....but I’m principled!”

“I’ll repeat...I voted for McCain and wasted my vote.”

Maybe you should have worked harder in the primaries?

Old habits die hard....now you’re gonna vote for some other (3rd party) loser on “principle.” LOLOLOLOL Great thought process! Bet you voted for Ross Perot on “principle, and thereby gave us Bill Clinton who was elected with a 42% plurality.....Good job!

So go ahead.... sit on your couch. It’s comfy there and you don’t have to risk anything. Just remember you will perpetualy be in the loser’s column, but at least you can console yourself in being “a principled” loser. Yeah, that i’ll get it done......Yeah! Go team!

There are the Bill Clintons and John McCains in this world because of, not in spite of, voters with your mentality.

Thanks./s

You’re rambling proves to me you’re really obsessed with being known as a “man who’s going to make a difference” within that big tent. It’s really sad that you actually believe that the GOP establishment will listen to us peons out here. It’s people like you who gave us obama by giving us mccain. The only thing that will ever change any of this is a new republican party. I don’t believe it’s possible to return to the old one. Too many Boners in charge who love their power as much as the Pelosis.

I’ll vote for whomever I please. That’s my right. And nobody will tell me how to vote again. Not Rove, not Mccain and certainly not you.

” It’s people like you who gave us obama by giving us mccain.”

That is where you are so wrong. I have never in my life liked one bit of McCain. Did I vote for him???? No, I voted against Obama. There was no other choice.

Big tent?????

Out of necessity political parties have to cast a wide net in order to be effective. As far as the Republican party goes, I, and many others, would like to see a much more Conservative flavor to the party, which is, and has been in the recent past, more moderate/centrist than the general membership.

I don’t wear a cape, nor do any of my friends. But what do you care in any event?

By your own actions and thought process you’re irrelevant. Bottom line....a non entity. Good luck to ya. You’ll need it.

In the meantime....Ta-ta sonny!

We tried it your way in 2008. We all voted for mccain and it got us nothing. I say this time you should join us. If you don’t vote with us, you’re only helping re-elect obama.
