Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is stepping up her rhetoric against the “Republican establishment,” who she believes has turned its back on Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), commenting that there may already be a third party in American politics.
“I dare say we already have a third party. We have the liberal party, the GOP machine, and then we’ve got the good guys,” she told Neil Cavuto on Tuesday on Fox News, while Cruz was crossing the hour and a half mark of speaking on the Senate floor. “That is the third party. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee, Rand Paul … Those are the players in the party whom I will support.”
Palin was especially critical of Republican members of Congress who are not standing with Cruz as he speaks out against Obamacare on the Senate floor. She waved a white flag at the beginning of her segment with Cavuto to emphasize her point....

I saw her on Hannity tonight and she had some nice zingers for Pelosi. She suggested Cruz could read the entire Obama care bill so that Pelosi could finally find out whats in it.
With Sarah leading the charge, a third party has a better then average chance.
I was pretty done with the GOP when - under Steele - they started sending me donation requests with the words PAST DUE on them, making it look like a bill.
I’m in. I’m also out of the GOP. I despise hypocrites and liars more than anything.
I’m all done with the GOP as far as voting on strict party lines. RINOs and sellouts have destroyed the party. Sarah Palin is a breath of fresh air and a huge step in the right direction.
Id gladly sign up for the “Good guys” party..because seeing how the GOP Establishment has been bashing Cruz and Palin, either we get rid of the RINOS or the GOP will never succeed. Hearing clowns like Rove and Schmidt run their traps, close your eyes and you’d swear your hearing a leftist talk, what’s scary is that they are supposed Republicans who are talking like Democrats do..at least with the Dems, they are supposed to hate Sarah Palin and Ted Cruz, but hearing that garbage from the GOP is truly sickening
I'm all in. Let it begin now.
Deal.
Just waiting for her say so, at this point.
‘Better than the average bear’
Sarah, we’re with you. Listening to Sen Ted at this moment He is spectacular Throwing you many hugs and kisses. In the words of a hero....’Let’s Roll’

So the RINOs within the offices of Republican National commitee are going to up and quit and let the Tea Party take over? Even the members on the RNC board are mostly establishments players. Even when the floor delegates opposed rule changes at the convention like last year they are ignored and the rules are passed without any objections. We already have one party running everything and that’s the Repub-Democrat alliance
Which group does S! put Juan in?
“I say no. dividing the Republican vote is just what the Dems would want.”

Ding. Ding. Ding. Ding.
We have a winner.
A lot of us have said that.
Since the early 1970s.
And still the GOP is dominated by go along to get alongs, courtly cretins, and ordinary hustlers.
The rat party doesn’t even deserve criticism. They’re beneath it.
Palin is right, but everyone is afraid....because why? We might not reelect...John cornyn?
He can run on the silver haired patrician ticket for courtly nostalgics. Should get at least 10 or 12 votes.
In the meantime, something resembling an authentic American party will rise up. Both of the old parties reflect out of date tendencies which very few people care about.
Time for something new.
If I were her, I could NOT stay out of this. Yes, family comes first, but she also knows the call of duty, and having let the cat out of the bag in this offhand way, all that’s left is to make it formal.
She doesn’t need to declare that she’s running for anything. Just come out and cut the ties with the RNC officially, and make a statement to the effect that “Unless the GOP is going to return to it’s roots and support traditional conservative values, we have no choice than to organize a new Party”.
When the buzz dies down (in about a week), take stock and see what public support looks like. I think that as soon as a viable alternative comes into existence, you will be amazed at the support it receives.
Thats what we've been saying. Add Palin to the list, and thats my party. If they call themselves GOP, fine. If they peel off into another party, I'm in.
A GOP that doesn't want them doesn't want me either.
As I have said before, I will raise a million dollars for any campaign or movement she gets into.
Your argument is the same one that Medved, Rove, Hewitt and all of the other GOPe water carriers use to stave off any change in the republican party.
You probably advocate for voting for "the most conservative candidate that can win."
I'm done with the GOP.
