If you're a 2016 GOP presidential hopeful, watch out for Rep. Peter King's right hook ...
King believes the Republicans don't stand a chance if they put up the wrong candidate against Hillary Clinton.
"I think she's very strong on foreign policy, and I think that if we nominate someone from our isolationist wing of the party, she'll destroy them," King said, putting Sens. Rand Paul and Ted Cruz squarely in the isolationist category ...

Peter king is possibly one of the dumbest RINOs around. A Republican from New York, he is a legend in his own mind.
If the Republican nominee loses to Hillary it won’t be because he’s not sufficiently hawkish on foreign policy.
Isn’t that lots of conservatives were saying last year?
Increasingly the population favors the Tyranny side of your choice.
In Rand Paul’s case he’s probably right.
You know who else she would destroy, Peter King, who is reportedly considering a run himself. I doubt very much he’ll actually run but he will carry water for some POS like Chrissy. Or perhaps he’s actually trying to help Clinton herself in hopes of being her Ray LaHood, maybe snare that Homeland Security gig. Isn’t he as close the Clintons as he is to the IRA terrorists? The guy is crap, you can just tell he’s scum. He is far from the worst RINO in terms of voting record but he’d be one of the first I’d want to get rid of.
I hope Cruz is the next President. He’s an “isolationist”? Why is that? Cause he’s not a raging neocon who hides his less conservative positions behind aggressive foreign policy rhetoric, like King?
our fearless leader is an imp. Glad the younger generation has stepped forward to lead our nation in our time of national peril.
Direct us, oh lad.
It is the truth. Like it or not, the Republican Party consists of the conservative and liberal wings. One wing only will not be enough to win the presidency. I don’t buy the idea of silent conservative majority among common folks today. This is not the 1980s. Education, immigration, media, fertility differences, etc. have changed the political landscape.
“.....And what foreign policy successes did Hillary have?
Good question and here’s the answer:
What difference does it make?
IMO, Hitlary will lose any election because of that one statement.

I just wish the repubs would stick together instead of eating their own.
I think 60% or more of our voting population will never remember her saying that. They are dumbed down, low-information voters.
You and I will never forget it.
Of course, that’s my humble opinion, and I may be wrong.........
Hillary will lose ONLY if a Repub nominee is willing to attack her head on, “full speed ahead.” Just like Romney would never really go after O, I don’t see a candidate that will hit her with all there is to hit her with.
The only pubbies that come from NY are geldings.
good one
“Hillary will be 68 in three years.”
And when Ronald Reagan was elected in 1980 at the age of 69, all the media chanted and said, “He’s the OLDEST man EVER to be elected president!”
If, God forbid, Hitlery is ever elected president, absolutely NO ONE in the “media” will ever mention her age.....it will be swooning and panting 24/7/365. “Isn’t she wonderful?” Our lives will be one nonstop BARF alert.
They already are.
Peter King is a statist sock puppet.
“Our lives will be one nonstop BARF alert.”
“They already are.”
Unfortunately, I have to agree with you.
Ted Cruz - 2016
Don’t underestimate the “Obama Fatigue” that will be there in 2016. That could make a big difference for the right Republican.
This is the mindset of the average liberal NY republican... who is to the left of democrats in moderate states... so do the exact opposite of what he recommends.
