No, you’re in the clear majority.
Remember, this is a very conservative web site.

The Republican voting population, at large, is not nearly as conservative. And, frankly, that’s what makes folks around here so frustrated.


Got it, you’re more like a moderate or less.

Cedric, you are making the very wrong assumption that the voting pool is static; the same mistake that is being made by the beltway RINOs.

While you guys were sleeping, the mushy middle upon which the RINOs depend, and even quite a large percentage of the liberals, have moved so far right that now the liberal Democrats and the liberal RINOs are sitting on the left end of the spectrum together wondering what the hell is happening, along with the RINO supporters on FR. The earth has shifted under your feet and you don't have a clue, and don't want one.

The RINOs cannot generate any energy among the electorate by offering simply an alternative label against the Democrats, while maintaining a similar big government mentality. The voters are wide awake like they have never before been in our lifetimes, possibly more than ever in the lifetime of the nation. And they are getting more informed via the internet and FNC than they have ever been able to in previous election cycles.

I have observed this phenomena among a group of solid Republican voters who just a year ago could not differentiate between RINO Republicans and conservative Republicans. These people would wait until the general election and just pull the (R) lever. They are now terrified at what they are seeing with this administration and wondering what the future holds for their children and grandchildren. They are also painfully aware that the RINO policies are woefully insufficient to save the nation.

The prevailing attitude I see is that the RINOs bled us dry for years, and now the Democrats are driving a stake through the nation's heart. Going back to just being bled dry is not a solution. Only common sense conservatism will save this nation.
