Those are some really tough odds and dire circumstances but I thank you for laying out the scenario. Primaries seem to be the only way to go.. Just wow. And if this isn’t done right, 0bama will succeed in destroying what’s left of the Republican Party. I don’t think we have the numbers just yet to get it right...at least not for a few years. Sickening..

The call for gun control compromise with Democrats came from "House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-CA)." California. In case you didn't see that, Republican--California.

America’s Democan and Republicrat royalty can’t abide any threat to their Imperial Rule, so they join hands against their constutuents and America in order to defend the palace walls in an egregious us vs. them gesture.

Let them do this and it will be the final nail in the coffin of this so-called party.

As if that wasn’t the plan all along.

The GOPe have been functioning as Demoncrats for years, about time We the People figured that out.

Not yet, many are still supporting the Bushs and Romneycrats, on this forum.

Surely we have offended God and are now paying the price.
