I’m calling shenanigans on Levin. He argues that this isn’t a purity test but the party needs to be cleaned out ....purged? This is what the hard left does. His reasoning is that by purging the party we will bring in a new breed that ...knows what it stands for. Levin’s stupid here. This is politics much of it’s local. What works on Texas not in Connecticut. I’m with William Buckley.Run the most conservative candidate that can win.
The problem with Buckley's advocacy in that manner, is that ultimately it results in an atmosphere where nobody is educated with regard to what is truly sound policy.
Lose me four elections in a row fighting for truly sound policy. By the fifth or sixth election, the Democrats will have helped you prove your point. Then the public will choose your team and policy in your local, state, and federal government will move back to the right.
We can't win electing Democrats from the Republican party.
What Buckley advocates for, results in our side not being able to pass anything, because our own party members vote against sound policy.
Huh? He is arguing that that national party has failed and will continue to fail without new leadership. He’s 100% accurate. I think you are confusing candidate selection in different states with party organization. The party organization is a failure and is losing.
