...it needs to be noted that the GOPe is complicit in this. VERY complicit. Dirty as hell IMO.Not only is fighting dems waayyy down on the list of what the GOP is interested in doing, their desire is to help get a dem prez elected rather than a conservative because they are NOT conservative.
...I want this noted and remembered by all of those who tell us to vote for the lessor of two evils next year. Well, I’m not voting for McConnell. Period.
...The GOPe has publicly stated their goal in 2014 is to destroy the TEA Party movement and conservatism. In their minds, that is the first priority, fighting Dems a distant second.
McCain gave the election to Obama over a month before the election when he was running...by saying Obama is a good person and would be a good president.
Rommney in his own way did the same when he ran.
This was illustrated quite well when after Palin brought McCain MILLIONS of more supporters and votes, he siced his team of attack dogs on her and everything about her.
And then when Romney ran he inherited all of MrCain's anti Conservative staff and they continued the attacks on Plain.
They (McCain and Romney along with the GOPe) both/all wanted to go down in history as being major players in getting the first black President elected.
I will never vote for the lessor of two evils again.
I voted for Palin but she was cut off at the knees in order for her not to gain political power (which she ironically now has much more than any Republican) and also so Obama could get elected intead of McCain/Palin.
(Note to ROCKLOBSTER: That maybe not what was said, but it is true never the less ie The GOP is the real enemy.

Republican operatives want to help establishment candidates fend off tea party challenges with a new weapon: unlimited cash.
Consultants and attorneys — including the co-founder of the pro-Mitt Romney super PAC — are laying the groundwork or have already filed paperwork for dozens of super PACs organized to support individual candidates running next year.

Single-candidate super PACs also is a sign party leaders believe donors are unhappy with the results of big money groups in recent years — and are willing to take their checkbooks elsewhere.
Rove’s Crossroads groups budgeted more than $300 million on a plan to defeat President Barack Obama and flip the Senate to the GOP in 2012 — and failed. The perceived stumbles of Crossroads in 2012 led immediately to recriminations within the conservative movement about Rove’s dominance of the outside money apparatus.
