1. The GOP will choose the most moderate candidate before the primary begins. That person will be the GOP candidate in the presidential election. Our preferences don't matter. Our rallies don't matter. Our letters and calls don't matter. Elections are pre-programmed. Now the sale of that candidate begins. It's a con job. They must convince us why we should vote for their choice for us.
2. The GOP and the media will shove the above mentioned GOP Moderate at us every single day all day long, bombarding us with their images and sound-bites, telling us what a great candidate they are, and lying about how much we really want them. This is how they SELL candidates.
3. The GOP and the media will tell us which candidates we should ignore because they are too _______ (fill in the blank; conservative, hate-filled, angry, crazy, etc.)_____. Then they will shut out those candidates for us so we won't be tempted to think for ourselves.
4. The GOP will sound the alarm of "Anybody but Hilary." The most simple minded among us will buy into it, never realizing that this is the way Conservative voters are controlled by their lords and masters.
5. The GOP will deal with dissenters by hammering us with the lie that, "True Conservatives can't win. We MUST vote for a moderate or else we're voting for Hilary."
6. The GOP will deal with the remaining dissenters by blackballing their reputations saying, "If you vote for anyone BUT the candidate we tell you to vote for, you vote for Hilary." Always remember..... thinking outside the box our lords and masters gave us is eeee-vil. Just ask anyone who mindlessly votes straight GOP. They'll get up in your face about it.
7. We spend OUR time helping to campaign. We spend OUR money buying the GOP their ad time. And voila..... the GOP candidate they sold us wins the primary just as they planned.
8. The GOP candidate they sold us may lose the Presidential election. The mindless drones in the Democrat dugout rejoice that Americans really do want hope and change. Or....
9. The GOP candidate becomes President and compromises on nearly everything the Liberals want, just as the GOP planned all along.
10. The GOP will cover up the con job they perpetrated on us. Most well-meaning Conservative voters see this scenario play out over and over again during their lifetimes and never realize that they are being manipulated election after election.
11. In the wake of the GOP disappointing us all over again, voters start yapping about "Revitalizing the GOP." We spend our time and money attempting to breathe new life into the GOP crypt, pretending we don't notice it's only full of dead men's bones. We endure four years (or eight.. because Americans are completely ignorant of the most basic of freedoms, what they mean, and what they cost previous generations in blood and toil) of liberty killing government that resembles nothing the founders wanted their children to have. And then...
12. Four years later, repeat step 1.
I’m afraid we’ve already lost. It’s simple, we the real conservatives have a list of fair and decent candidates. The Rockefeller republicans will only have one. We split our vote they win the republican primaries it’s all down hill from there.
We should unify behind Cruz when the time comes and he hasn’t been taken down by the media.
The idea that the GOPe is some incredible mastermind org is so ridiculous. It's all these useless candidates who smile and say they are voting for "Christian" values that snake the vote from a more full conservatism that will give us Jeb.
We have met the enemy and he is us.
I would cheer if we could unify behind Cruz.
BTW - I really like the term Rockefeller republican because it clarifies who the socialists are in the republican party. Socialism for the very wealthy means more money for them taken from the working class.
As a Texan, I can say I would not vote for Rick Perry.
Whinging, whining, and moaning about oh "THEY" will FORCE so&so on us, no matter what we do, doesn't help and neither is it so! Get out there NOW, talk with family, friends, and yes, even strangers and tell them what your choice REALLY stands for, his accomplishments, and WHY real Conservatism is the ONLY thing that can help this nation ! Donate timed, money, and lots of effort; take people to the polls, make sure that you get others to tell even more people what you've told them and don't EVER give up !
You obviously have NO idea what the term "ROCKEFELLER REPUBLICAN" actually meant when that term was used.
whatever
Jeb wins, GOPee loses, AGAIN! Turkeys.
None of that will happen. To start off with, the GOPe candidate, Jeb Bush is not even leading the polls despite massive advantage in name recognition and the media shilling for him. Scott Walker is. And, Bush’s poll numbers keep falling. Secondly and far more important, we have Ted Cruz, the best candidate either of the parties has had for decades. Thirdly, we have Obama, by far the most left wing president in US history. Just as Reagan won by a landslide after the left wing, Iran appeasing Carter presidency, Cruz is going to win part because of Obama’s left wing extremism, appeasement of Iran and rabid anti-Americanism.
Cruz is getting money from me, though.

And you know I won't vote for anyone but a real conservative in the general election. Or primary for that matter.

Who do you think all those useless candidates are working for?
(sung to the tune of the hymn “Rock of Ages Cleft for Me”)
Rockefeller’s not for me,
He is not for GOP.
He is for the welfare state.
He has had more than one mate.
Rockefeller’s not for me,
He is not for GOP.
R-O-C-K-E-Y—
Oh, you SOB!
Remember the last time we actually ran a CONSERVATIVE candidate??
We only won forty-nine of the fifty-seven states!
This, times 10^1000.
More activism, less tinfoil hat whingeing.
The real enemy is NOT the GOP. The real enemy is the Democrat Party. Don’t let your hatred for the GOPe cause you to loose focus on what’s causing the destruction of this nation.
