Contested primaries should not be a civil war. I will vote in the primary for the most conservative electable candidate. I will vote in the general for the more conservative candidate, who in my experience has always been the pubbie. I oppose fratricide.

Romney wasn't electable. He is a liberal.

Any liberal or 'moderate' that the GOP puts up is going to be unelectable. Take that to the bank.

To borrow a line from Lord of the Rings, war is upon us whether we would wish it or not. If there are people running on the Republican ticket who will do all they can to undermine conservatism, those people must be recognized as enemies and defeated. RINOs have a unique ability to give conservatives 0% of the power and 100% of the blame; Democrats may be able to take power, but they can't shift the blame to conservatives without RINOs' help.

Yep. Fight like heck for who you want in the primary.

Then vote for the winning candidate in the general.

Don't be a Sore Loserman.
