So you would rather whine, speculate, sit on your hands and ensure a second Obama term rather than use this as an opportunity to make it far less likely that the GOP establishment selects future nominees?

Your argument is wrong. If Romney is elected, the establishment will continue selecting their nominees. However, if his chances are sabotaged (even if it means Obama wins), the establishment will not only learn a lesson but will also lose its grip over the party.

I understand your frustration with Obama and share it. Perhaps, we can control it by voting the right people into the House and the Senate.

Yeah, the RINO wing learned that lesson really well with Ford, Bush, Dole and McCain, didn't they?

We beat them only one time: with Reagan in 1980 (and 1984 by extension) because we conservatives were better organized and united. We also beat them in 1964 with Goldwater, but they sandbagged the nominee.

It would have been nice if Sarah had gotten in. But she didn't.

We have to play with the hand that we were dealt. It is even possible that a Romney administration might do something right with the right people to push him.

It is a hell of a lot more likely that will happen than pushing Obama in the right direction will happen with a bicameral majority.

I started this thread to discuss positive ways we might reform a RINO rigged system into picking less RINO inclined nominees in the future.

Too bad it has deteriorated into a thread of whining about the latest RINO wing nominee and how we will punish the GOP establishment by taking our marbles and going home.

Conservatives are supposed to be about 40% of the American voting populace, moderates about 40% and liberals about 20%. But the liberals have a firm grip on one political party, the moderates are taking over the other and the conservatives are being consigned to a fringe movement, where the liberals rightly belong.

If that doesn't bother you, then just keep doing what your doing. Whine about the latest RINO nominee and let the opportunity to reform the rigged process which gives us RINO after RINO get p*ssed away -- again!
