The only way we, the conservatives, will lose to the Kenyan Turd is IF the "Establishment Republicans" REFUSE to support the Republican Nominee.

They did exactly that, quite notoriously, in 1964.

If the rich guys couldn't run the train, if Rocky couldn't get the nod (it was "his turn" -- he'd been up for it in 1960 and threw his support to Nixon instead, in a backroom deal called "the compact of Seventh Avenue"), if he and the Cabots and Lodges couldn't flip the nomination to their backup boy Scranton or an acceptable dark horse (two or three names were bruited in the late going), then they'd just flip off the entire Main Street Republican Party, let them have their nominee, and tell them all to ride the short bus to hell.

Read how desperate the "Establishment Republicans" are: Look at the "winners" the "Establishment Republicans" have picked before:
The "Establishment Republicans" rate a
