um.. knowing the intelligence of the average voter... I bet 60% didn’t even know who the speaker and senate majority leader are!

My mistake. Overlooked Jeb (He is dead to me. Did not see his name until I reread it.)

Only if you vote for a liberal. Did you? Will you again? R or D doesn’t matter. But if you want to attempt to argue that someone like Bhoner, Mitch or Romney is not a liberal, then by all means, feel free to throw your integrity in the trash.

Then, by all means, explain how voting for a liberal is OK and conservative because I really want to see someone do it after the tens of thousands of unsuccessful tries in the last 3 elections.

The most conservative candidate is now president. Because there is only one glaring difference in their actual in office records. Barry was once anti gay marriage.

These boneheads have brought this on themselves by agreeing to every harebrained nitwit program that the neo-Soviets in the former Democratic party can dream up in what’s left of their fevered little minds. I’ve been done with them for a while now.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda...Good grief.

It is not a case of "woulda, coulda, shoulda". It is a case of failing to draw the correct conclusions from the evidence you cite. As evidence, the Perot candidacy was actually stronger evidence that a 3rd party candidate has a chance of success, whereas you conclude, erroneously, that it is evidence that a 3rd party candidate has no chance. Good grief, indeed.

Your other evidence is similarly flawed. Anderson was never a serious candidate, and was running against a very popular governor who was starting to gain extreme popularity nationally. Nader was never more than an over-hyped fringe candidate. The bottom line is that the only evidence we really have of a serious 3rd party challenge, in modern times, is the Perot candidacy, and that candidacy shows convincingly that a 3rd party candidacy is realistic.

no problem, but, back to my initial question. are you going to ignore an A list third party challenge, such as Palin or Cruz and stick with the Jeb if he is the nominee?

Actually two. I doubt Barry ever gave his own cash for anything. Mitt did to help planned Parenthood kill babies.

Perot probably would have won, had he not dropped out the first time.

That, and the illegal aliens on his lawn. Not the 'south of the border' kind, but the Alpha Centauri kind.

No argument on all that.

But wishing for it does not make it happen. I’m not at all clear how losing elections is helpful.

If that many voters are ready to walk and a majority want cry baby out, an honorable man would resign.

I think any time there is a vote, all representatives should be back in their home state in a public venue with all their constituents in attendance. They can send in their vote as a live video feed. I don’t think they would brazenly affront us as they have if we were within tomato throwing distance.

I don’t get excited about any of this. Mainly because this problem we have is too far gone to be fixed by elections.

When nothing you do seems to work, it most likely because nothing you are doing will be fixed by conventional means.

This national disgrace and problem is just that. National. DC lives in their own bubble of power, lies, and greed, but the corruption has spread like a cancer.

By Monday afternoon January 5th, 2015 ... SCORES (143) of GOP House Representatives had agreed to vote for Congressman Louis Gohmert (TX Tea Party) for the next House Speaker !

By Tuesday evening, Karl Rove, Reince Pribus, Jeb Bush, Juan McCain had expressed their DEEP SORROW for their "good friend" John Boehner ...

and John Boehner's "disrespectful" treatment by the ignorant Tea Party rednecks.



A "massive" participation by the Free Republic patriot community ...

and the "hundreds" (315) of Facebook Patriots who "committed" to have local rallies in their local communities and overpasses this weekend ...

were essential to this GREAT political victory !


The "National Day of Reckoning" event had been announced by Jim Robinson (Free Republic founder) ...

and the national news media (including The Drudge Report) reported on Sunday that tens of thousands of American Patriots had braved the bitter-cold winter temperatures ...

just like George Washington at the Battle of Trenton (Christmas 1776) ...

and Gen. George S. Patton Jr's. rescue of the gallant 101st Airborne Division (Christmas 1944) during WWII's Battle of the Bulge.

They needed a poll to find this out? They probably also have to use flashlights to find their ho hos.

I bolted long ago. I have no desire to be affiliated with the “establishment” of republicans or demorats either one. Both have failed the voters that are trying not to fail the nation and they have submitted to the stringed money of the left.

OTOH, I'm not at all clear how winning elections (with these guys) is helpful.

Cadell has said so many good things in recent years. But yesterday on Fox, he was gushing about Mario the Pious—what a “uniter” he was, in contrast to “modern” Democrats.

A disappointment. Mario the Bishop Beater a “uniter.”

No. I thought I made it clear that I had missed Jeb’s name on first reading. That is why I said “either / both.” Only read Palin and Cruz. Because, Jeb is dead to me.

Cannot think of another way to rectify my blunder.

I honestly believe if Boehner had lost his last election, and could not be the speaker, we would be in better shape would we not?

I have been recommending that people withhold their 2015 Republican dues until they get rid of Boehner and Steve Scalise. .

Scalise to s so bad as Whip that they may as well have elected Lois Lerner as Republican Whip.
