I will repeat the question I made on this subject earlier today:

What is the issue those who dropped out, had with the GOP?

Were they (legitimately) saying the GOP was too much like the Democrats?

What was their basis for leaving?

Thanks.

What is the issue those who dropped out,

Did you read the article?

Seems clear enough to me.

Basically Boehner is a Boehn-head, and the RNC is going along to get along ("maybe they'll like us if we...").

“What is the issue those who dropped out, had with the GOP?”

Same reasons I changed my party affiliation from Republican to unaffiliated after 40 years.

1) No principles
2) Poor leadership
3) Unwillingness to serve the people who elect them.

better to light one candle than to curse the darkness.

These people took over the Maine state party committee ... then they found out that the RNC didn’t want to agree with all ... that they couldn’t take over the RNC.

So they quit. As soon as they were frustrated in part, they would have copped a resentment and run off.

Do they have delusions of grandeur? Regardless, whatever they try next, they will crash and burn.

The second path leads to a principled preservation of our individual integrity, helping out our fellow citizens at the local level, and doing our level best for our Creator, our families, and our friends.

Yes, they rejected the GOP for being too liberal.
