“I don’t know how other Freepers feel...”
I think there are a good number of freepers who share your sentiment. I’m not one of them. Leaving the Republican Party will accomplish nothing but assuring Democrats control the money and power. The better path is to wrest control of the Republican Party, as the Tea Party is trying to do. It’s an uphill battle, one that began with Reagan and was furthered by the 94 Republican takeover. It has had its ups and downs, but the 2010 takeover of the house was a huge victory for the Tea Party and conservatives. Establishments come and go, and the elites of the Republican Party are dug in, but they can go nowhere without us. It is like the foolish argument by the “intellectual” elites of the party who want to marginalize cultural conservatives. It isn’t going to happen, and if it did, they would be crying to get them back. The Republican Party can’t win without cultural conservatives, and the Republican Party won’t have a future without the Tea Party conservatives.
If Rush, being a FLORIDIAN, was really interested in helping the US of A before it’s TOO late, he’d do a WEEKEND LIVE BROADCAST and INVITE the CANDIDATES into his own arena (put up some of your millions, Rush and rent a stadium) and be the MODERATOR and ask REAL ISSUES QUESTIONS)...DO IT NOW and let the candidates take the ISSUES and POUND OBAMA FOR A CHANGE!
