It is time to start supporting a NEW PARTY that treasures our Constitution, our Republic…and for us all to REBUILD AMERICA…if we don’t, if we attempt to “cleanse” the GOP…we will fail and so will America.

Blah blah blah blah New Party blah blah hate the GOP-e blah blah blah.

We hear this virtually ever single election cycle and it isn't going to happen. Why do you need a new 3rd party anyway? There are LOTS of 3rd party's already out there just waiting for you to join and help them reach critical mass (which isn't going happen). You can join the Constitution Party, the Libertarian Party, all manner of independent party's, etc, etc.

There's ALWAYS an establishment in a political party. You can replace it with a group of people you like better, but then they become the establishment.

The only 3rd party's with the name Tea Party will be the fake ones the Democrats create to confuse people. Obama would not groan if Tea Party folks actually created a new party, he'd laugh at the stupidity of such a thing.

There isn't going to be a viable 3rd party in our 2 party system. It's happened only once in these couple hundred years and the new party simply became the 2nd leg of our two party system. You want change, you are going to have to do it from within the Republican party - and you are going to have to accept that a large portion of the party members are not very conservative and simply don't agree with a lot of us conservatives on FR.

Let’s revisit this about halfway through Bronco’s fifth year in office.

The Republicrats can’t even come up with a viable candidate who has fire and purpose. Those in Congress are so busy ‘reaching out’ to their opponents on the opposite side that they’re looking like they’re light in their loafers.

Bi-partisanship is impossible in any situation and especially now with a large chunk of the Democrats being members of the communist party. (Maxine Waters, et al)

This nation is sinking fast, but not to worry. It will be supplanted by a nation that will be pleasing to all our current enemies. It will be emasculated by the castrator-in-chief and his minions. Bagging the balls will be the Republicrats.

The only chance that a polite society will have will be to syphon off votes from the two ‘establishment’ parties in order to rule properly.

The republican party can sod off. I won't vote for their liberal offerings. If they run a conservative, I'll consider voting for the conservative. But the party can go pound sand.

It's about time for them to go the way of the Whigs.

Stuff it. your way just failed spectacularly with a lib heading up the GOP and emboldened that GOP to cave yet again. And why shouldn’t he? he has plenty of people who believe the same thing you do.

No reason for him to do what’s right when you make being wrong so consequence free. And that is EXACTLY what your excuses do.

I want to stand up and shout, "Hooray". You get it and you are rooted in reality. For those who believe that our only problem was that we didn't run Sarah Palin, or someone else acceptable, they had better stop and analyze who voted for whom.

I am extremely pessimistic as this country has taken a great big lurch to the left. Those Obama voters are not interested in limited government--to them, the bigger the better. It is impossible to expect to win an election by making our party smaller.

True enough. We got rid of the Eastern Liberal Establishment Rockefeller Republicans over the years. Now new people, a lot of them who started out at the bottom sending out letters and answering phones for Bush or Dole or McCain, are the new establishment or elite. I guess Romney being his father's son obscures the changes, but throw out today's elite and you'll see another spring up soon enough with the same complaints attached to different names.

Perhaps you can explain to me why I would wish to affiliate myself with people who do not agree with my political philosophy. That one just goes right by me.

Your entire POV reeks of “circular reasoning”.
