It is the "Principled Conservative Brigade". The same yoyos who think the Second American Civil War will be cool and fun!
If they can't get everything they want and right now, they will trash any efforts to get part of it.
We can expect them to "sit on their hands and send the GOP a strong message" and then hold their breaths until they turn into Smurfs.

LOL

Which would be completely unnecessary if we all understood strategy and applied it rationally.
"If they can't get everything they want and right now, they will trash any efforts to get part of it."
Exactly. They don't understand that you can't win the war without winning most of the battles. And you definately can't win the war if you refuse to participate in any of the battles.
There is no chance of getting a true conservative in the WH this year; that's a hard fact we have to face. The best we can hope for is to increase the number of Tea Party conservatives in both the House and Senate in 2012 (hopefully gaining control of both this year) and again 2014.
By the 2016 election, we should have a strong conservative candidate to run for President. By then, the conservatives we will have put into Congress should have corrected most of what the liberals have put into place. And if so, the economy will have gotten stronger, gas prices should be lower, dependance on foreign oil will have dropped dramatically as domestic drilling is increased, which would show a sharp contrast between how well conservatives operate the government versus liberals. Hopefully by then the conservative message would be heard, understood, and embraced.
Our Founding Fathers didn't shake off British rule in a day - it took many hard fought battles over many years, some of which they lost. Victory is incremental.

And then turn around and bitch because BHO is still in office and say that we as a country deserve it. I can't get my head around anybody who calls themselves a patriot but sits on the sidelines and allow socialism to completely consume this country.
