If a conservative third party must be created it should be called something like the “New Republicans”.

It would be useful to link the party to the Republican party as much as possible... bill it as an offshoot that seeks to reform the GOP. Welcome all true conservative republicans to join.

If Mitt gets the nomination then Newt should run on a third party ticket. He would at least take the fight to Obama. He could wring a few promises out of Mitt in exchange for throwing support to him near election day. Not sure if Mitt’s word is worth much though...

I don't think Mitt keeps promises or that anyone expects him to. Thus his abysmal lack of support and the reason Newt is ahead of him nationally.

Yesterday Newt said he's down in Florida because he's being carpet-bombed (and he certainly is) and that he is ahead nationally because all the guns are trained on him in Florida. If Mitt comes out of Florida with a healthy win he will be insufferable as will his handmaidens (and their money and ink) which are outlined so well in McCann's column.

The money and muscle is going to Mitt (and he has his own $$$ to draw on that he'll get back in spades) so it really is time for us to put our money on the line. We can NOT remain a silent majority. How long can we let the D.C.-New York Syndicate demand that we pay their bills, rescue their failed business and funnel money to their friends to continue this farce?

The threat that Newt poses from K-Street to Wall Street is a show we don't want to end in Florida or after Super Tuesday -- but rather watch for 8 years as Newt holds the bully pulpit, the veto pen and the judicial nominations.

I for one, want to help Newt write the next chapter in U.S. expceptionalism. I want to see power restored to the states and to the people. I want my grandchildren watching a president inspire a country to greatness (to dream) and work to get government out of their way so it happens.

I want my grandchildren to be Americans and to hold all the pride and chance of success that comes with being an American.

There are already plenty of third parties; Libertarian and U.S. Constitution Party to name a few. If it wasn’t for the fact that election boards do not acknowledge anything other than the two major parties, I would join the USConst. Party. The primary reason I remain a Republican is so I can try to vote for the most conservative candidate in primaries, but since the Establishment of the party seems determined to choose a RINO for the 2nd presidential election in a row before the primary even gets around to my state, staying within the GOP really has lost it’s draw.

Regardless of whether it gets to that point or not, there's no way I'll cast a vote for Willard; and I'd like to think and hope that everyone of us who can't stand the arrogant, punk-of-a-con-man will not vote for him either, even if it means an Obama second term.
