No more voting for RINOs ever, under any circumstances. Period.

I am not blaming you, my friend. I am, and will continue, to point out the self defeating folly of your statement. Not even the Democrats are stupid enough to adopt that philosophy and political strategy. They believe in political power, your statement is one of political obscurity and extinction.

You and the others who espouse this view are a distinct, but very vocal, minority on this forum, the largest conservative board on the internet. Your approach can never win an election even among conservatives, much less among the voting population at large. The basic idea is to get large numbers of diverse thinkers to vote for your candidate who will be and will act as a true conservative. Hard to do, but not impossible as Obama has demonstrated on the opposite side of the spectrum. It is not a rational approach to help him and others of his ilk out of irrational fits of anger and frustration. I will rail against you at every opportunity, you are not helpful to the conservative cause.

Well, I take your point. But I would argue that without the strategy I am urging (and I agree it would bring a terrible and painful outcome) there is no conservative cause.

That point has been proven over and over in countless elections in recent years.

I say it would bring a terrible and painful outcome, but sometimes amputation or other drastic measures are the only available interventions to save a life.

Our country is dying, almost dead, and only a chastened and wised-up conservative Republican party can save it. Certainly, more GOPe moderate shenanigans and candidates too worried about being PC to fight back against the Progressive attackers will never save the country.

We are in a final, deadly game of chicken with the GOPe, and the only (admittedly slim) chance to avoid death is to force the GOPe to blink first.
