Not sure the GOP is the party of conservatives and if it ever was.
Lincoln certainly wasn't a conservative and the conservative movement is ridiculed and marginalized to this day by the majority of GOP politicians.
My point will be proved when either MYTH or McInsane get the nomination or run together.
At that point it will be clear that the GOP is broken and may not be fixable.
There is no reason to be a Republican if they do the same thing as the democrats.
People are deluding themselves when they say Obama/KLinton will be worse when in fact there will be no difference.
NO MATTER WHO WINS, taxes will go up, a socialized medicine mandate enforced by the IRS will be instituted, assault weapons ban will be signed, gay marriage will be forced upon all states, enhanced hate and thought crime legislation will be enacted, government spending will continue to increase and we will cut and run in the WOT which will be portrayed by the MYTHSTER or KLINTOON as BUSH'S fault.
In light of the above it makes a lot of sense to withhold all support from the GOP and start anew, a task much easier today than in the past due to the internet and websites such as this.
I will be changing my party affiliation to independent and would welcome suggestions on a name for a new party that all conservatives could support in lieu of and to counter the Republicans.
Sure, post your platform in bullet form, then see who agrees. After doing that you’ll see that purity = marginalization.
The Libertarians have a very precise definition of their party. And get 1% of the vote.
Learn to live with compromise.. that’s what you neeed to win.
I don’t care what it is called but I want a platform party!
You don’t get to run for office under the banner unless you can embrace every single freaking issue in the platform!
That would end rich NE liberal pukes taking over the party by buying the elections!
People could vote for the freaking platform and any candidate that ran for office would get booted if they strayed from the basic platform once in office!
