To: GOP

My Black friends all blame Republicans for whatever is wrong and only give Democrats credit for whatever is right. How can Rinos be so stupid to think they will ever get any of their votes. Yet about 30% of Americans are registered Independent (and can’t vote Republican in primaries); I think most want to vote for a conservative but the Rinos General election candidates are always socialist. The GOP is incorrigibly stuck on NYC stupid; I can’t even hold my nose and vote for them anymore. I’ve lost all hope and sympathy for the GOP.

There is a way, but RINOs will never try it. See post 19.

Nationally, registered independents are closer to 40 % of the electorate. From Mike Barone last November:

Starting next month, Americans in 25 states will have Republican governors and Republicans in control of both houses of the state legislatures. They aren't all small states, either. They include about 53 percent of the nation's population.

At the same time, Americans in 15 states will have Democratic governors and Democrats in control of both houses of the state legislatures. They include about 37 percent of the nation's population.

And the GOP needs to move left? I don't think so.

The independents didn't want illegal aliens getting driver licences. It was about three quarters of them and two thirds of rats on that question the last time I looked.

The lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender(LGBT) cohort may be about a few percent of the electorate.
