It has become obvious that the GOP is a free fall mode now and destined to collapse due to the nomination of a Mitt Romney and due to the establishment's attacks on conservatives and the tea party.
People who can't take it any longer are trying to stand up to the party. A good way is to not vote for the hand picked nominee who they are ramming down our throats.
But the end is near because already we are seeing a demoralized base that is spilt and broken over the nomination of Mitt Romney.
The ABO crowd fails to see the gravity of the problem or understand how true conservbatives feel about voting for Romney.
The left is feeding off this division and trolling to get the division to continue and to get Romney to demoralize the base instead of them uniting against both Obama and Romney.
The same divisions that occurred in the primaries are continuing. As people are confused on what to do as their worst fears have come true. Obama vs. Romney is where we are at. America loses no matter who wins. A Romney presidency would be a disaster of epic proportions that would be as bad as a second Obama term.
I truly feel that Romney will work to end what is left of the tea party or co-opt it some more to where they become an arm of the GOP. And then he will work to pass romneycare nationally or by having states implement it on a state by state level.
The guy is a progressive who infiltrated the republican party. And as such I am glad we have this site to expose both Romney and Obama.
The other conservative sites out there seem to be in panic, confused mode. They can't let Obama win, but they know the base hates Romney too. But they don't go as far as this site has allowed us to attack Romney and the establishment.
They won't discuss the failure of the two party system and how the GOP is trying to lose the presidential election on puropse. They won't attack Karl Rove, Dick Morris and Sean Hannity, among others for hipocrisy and promotion of Romney and his lies.
They won't expose Fox News for the frauds they have become to some extent and the GOP talking points and orders by the RNC to promote Romney and only Romney thus killing off most voices who were vocally against Romney and the GOP establishment on the right. Such as Glenn Beck, Judge Andrew Napolitano, Joe Farah and so on.
They won't report on Sheriff Joe Arpaio's posse and their findings as well.
There is so much that is wrong and it is not the least funny. Therefore, I fear the GOP is closing in on a major collapse if they can't get a good and honest presidental candidate who will expose Obama and the Left and began to help fix the GOP from it evil ways.
So we are close to a meltdown. I am not exactly sure when it comes. One logical place would be if the GOP loses the presidential election and another would be if the infightining goes into the convention and yet another instance could be if more and more people start leaving the GOP and try to form a new party. I don't know.
Everything is on the table since the GOP has screwed this election cycle up royally. And they need to exposed.
So I thank this site for being able to expose the GOP for the fruads they have become. But i fear what I am seeing by reading the web, this site, posting and studying the situation is frankly the republican party collapse.
I worte a bit too fast on the title. I meant to write destined and in the post I meant to write conservatives but misspelled. Thanks for everything.
Don’t give them any $$$.
If I really cared about who our president is in 2013 I’d be really concerned. But I don’t so I’m not.
The Titanic hit the iceberg. The water is up to C deck, and I really don’t care who the captain is any more. All I care about is finding more nails so I can build my family a life raft out of deck chairs.
We’re on our own, no matter who wins.
I disagree with this article in the sense that the GOP and the American people know that Obama has to go. Then change Congress so that control will be brought back to the people of this country. Again, control Congress and the states and you will control the President. But for not, go with Romney, get Obama out and take the next four years to change things. We can’t wait until an election to start changing things. If a third party is needed it has to start now. Either that or change the Republican party to what we want it to be.
Please remember that conservatives must vote this November, no matter what we think of the liberal from Massachusetts. We don’t have to vote for Romney, particularly in states that Obama is guaranteed to carry, but we have to vote. Whether we end up with a big government liberal like Obama in our White House or with a big government liberal like Romney in our White House, we need as conservative a Congress as possible to restrain the excesses of the administration. Vote!
Sure looks like time for a third party. But respected conservative leaders would have to get on board early for this to happen - maybe in time for 2016?
I think W was probably the last American President. I’m not sure what Obama is, but by 2016 he will be Chavez or Castro if he wins re-election.
It’s quite obvious at this point that the GOP is decadent and worthless. Look at their presumptive nominee. The only thing holding it together is a fear of Barack Obama, and let’s face it, that’s only going to be a motivating factor for the Republican partisans. For a lot of folks who aren’t beholden to the GOP, fear of Obama alone is not going be enough to motivate them. You have to give people a reason to vote FOR you, not just use wearisome scare tactics. Romney doesn’t give anybody a reason to vote FOR him. He drives off conservatives because he’s a progressive. And he doesn’t attract other progressives because they already have their guy sitting in the White House. When you get right down to it, the large bulk of Romney’s 44% that he’ll get on election day is going to be made up of that third of the country that formally identifies with the Republican Party, and who therefore thinks that they “have” to vote for him, no matter what.
Is your country not worth one last Hail Mary?
Well, I didn’t vote for the rino mcain, didn’t vote fot the rino dole, wished I had not voted for the rino elder bush. Problem is the establishment rino gop is to stupid to learn. But at least I sleep well...

I hope we can get a good congress that will hold Romney’s feet or Obama’s if he wins re-election.
The 2010 election gave us a start, but the GOP has been disappointing. They even turn their back on the HOuse contract pledge that they had trotted out after they wonm the elections in the House. And most people said it didn’t go far enough.
The whole situation is the speed with which we can get good people inc ongress. It is taking longer than planned because in the senate the tea party failed in various races in 2010.
I do hope we can keep the house and get a conservative senate. The congress is all that is left for us to aim for.
No matter what happens I see a fight, so the speak, brewing. The GOP ios not easily going to do what conservatievs wnat they have proved.
They seem to love Jeb Bushes, Mitt Romney’s, John Mccain’s and Lisa Murkowski’s. So it is not easy to steer them in the right direction.
Socialists are fighting with 20 year to 100 year vision. Conservatives feel defeated then elated every 2 years. We have got to stop this seesaw and continue the Tea Party movement XXXX 100. We are the majority. My only concern with POTUS is the nomination of judges. BUT that can be controlled in the house and senate.
Like your attitude RC2.

Amen, Mozilla. Jim, THANK YOU SO MUCH for this wonderful website. I hope every other FReeper has joined me in contributing to the FReepathon.
Actually both parties may implode.
I am seeing all kinds of fault lines and fissures opening up on the Democrat side (Enviros vs. Unions, Blacks vs. Hispanics, DC Dems vs. State/Local Dems on Fracking, etc.)
Maybe the third time will be a charmer for the GOP IF they loose this year...let’s hope if they lose this one they won’t have another chance as a pary. Time for this Grand Ole Party to end. With Pappa Bush, Dole & McCain’s losses if Romney loses, the money should just stop flowing to them.
Last go around I gagged and voted for McCain only because of Palin who was the brightest light in that election. Dole got another gag wimpy vote from me-pathetic candidate the GOP gave us. Now, Romney. I’ll vote for him not because I am scared but because I don’t like what Obama is doing one bit. So in the meantime, in the TX primary I’ll vote or write in Newt and in Nov. I’ll puke before and after voting for Mitt. No money from my pocket in this cycle if he is the nominee.
I don’t see why any rational person would find it difficult to choose between ANY non-Obama candidate and the dog-eater.
We know what the dog-eater HAS done in his first term. And, thanks to his bungled handling of an “open mic”, we know what the dog-eater WANTS TO DO, if America’s most incompetent President EVER is re-elected.
So please don’t believe every poll-tested lie and every cleverly shaded half-truth deployed by the White House, as it tries to sow dissention among us patriots!
And please remember that “cutting off your nose to spite your face” is a form of madness...
