That was just my lame attempt at lightening the mood a bit by recapturing an immortal one-liner from the FR archives.

" We're all the base, it's just that the "purist" are trying to push out the rest of us."

Well, I guess I'm one of the "purists" and we do not agree on who's trying to push whom out. The way we see it, it's the Hispandering GOP Big Tent party-over-principle types who are pushing the conservatives out. We have gotten the message, however. And we do know the way out.

Big mistake by the way, alienating and excluding 30+% of the total base. Going to make electing RINOs even tougher. Check with Ken Mehlman and ask him how the donations are coming along, and how many RNC/2006 membership cards have been returned cut in half.

Sad, but that's what happens when the GOP Big Tent decides it can do without conservatives. Now it may have to.

Try not to overinflate your numbers, even if you do need to do that to make yourself feel not quite so lonely.

Perhaps it's you who needs to do some checking; donations and money on hand are WAY over the top.

Numerous threads have been filled with people telling me they don't need mine or any other Conservative's vote. We'll see how that holds up over the next few elections - they seem to forget how close the last two Presidential elections were.
