I have come to the conclusion that the thing that's wrong with the Party IS the Party. A elite upper crust has run it for so long they have come think of it as THEIR party and their attitude is that we ‘little people’ should be thankful they agree to let us participate in some manner.
I would like to think those days are gone. We let them lead, pretty much unfettered, and it's quite clear now where they've taken us. I, for one, don't like it where they've taken me. I am making a U-turn as quickly as I can and will beat feet out of here, back to the world of true conservatives who worship small government, personal freedom and minimal governmental interference.
Sounds like you are a Libertarian. The GOP was AWOL yesterday. They seem to be trying to maintain minority status. How could they let any Democrat claim to be conservative.
The problem with the party is that the democrats infiltrated it long ago and took it over. I hardly see any difference in leadership or regard for their voters.
Bingo. The leftists, while almost completely taking over and purging the 'Rat Party, have also grabbed much of the power in our Party. That's why we're throwing them out!
