If you read the history of the Republican Party you will find that except for a few instances over the last 140 plus years, the party has never been a conservative party. It has been the party for conservatives but we were more or less tolerated by the liberal elites who ran the GOP.

It is worse today than at almost any other time in history. The GOP is controlled top to middle by liberal, big government ideologues and with no apparent Reagan/Goldwater type leader to lead a resurgence of the conservative wing. I believe it is time to either retake the party or move on. You don't have to form a new party or join a third party. For a start, just withhold donations and vote for only conservatives.

While withholding donations is good, we must also let them know why. Also let them know that when we start seeing conservatism, we will support it.

That is exactly my attitude... if they nominate a country club liberal with a fancy Madison Avenue designer label for the White House, no money, no volunteer, no nothin' at all, I vote with my feet, write in Bullwinkle and vote for all the other Republicans I do like...
