Yeah right, MCcain and McConnell have done such a bang up job.

Douche anyone that has been there over two terms.

[noprogs]

Amen willie!

Small government, personal freedom, personal responsibility, border enforcement.

“They develop an incestuous relationship with Government (that can only really happen when a government is large) and that is called Fascism.”

Well, due to this relationship, 1930’s Germany actually had a pretty good economy, right up to...well, you know...

He’s deployed more guards to bar our World War II heroes from their memorial than he sent to Benghazi when our consulate was under attack.

The President is treating our veterans the same way he treated school kids when he cancelled their White House tours. When times called for obvious government belt-tightening, he took it out on kids rather than look for anything that would affect him personally. And while our vets are barricaded from the memorial they built with their heroism, the government “slim down” won’t affect Obama’s golf game or his family’s White House chefs.

Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress are attempting to fund the Veterans Administration and other essential functions, but Democrats are blocking them because they want to make any slim down look as awful as possible in order to deflect from what this whole slim down thing is about, which is their Obamacare train wreck.

Adelman in Las Vegas, the Koch Brothers etc. etc. etc. are you listening?

[geologist]

Having read the posts on this thread ... it is discouraging. We Republicans/conservatives over and over divide, argue, split hairs and do the same things over and over. We lose because we can not or do not agree with our candidates. God help the GOP.

As long as we continue to disagree, ... it seems we are divided about Sarah as well? It is STUPID!STUPID! STUPID!

OH! DID I COMMENT STUPID? ARE WE GOING TO BE SO STUPID THAT WE LOSE AGAIN ?

America IS ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR OR GO DOWN THE DRAIN ......

Well said!

Those of us with a few summers under our belts remember the Establishment said the same about RR.

[jeltz25]

I don’t know about that. I remember back at this point in ‘05 reading all these articles about how dems and liberals can’t win at the national level, either.

Having Bush at 27% approval changed a few things. Not saying Obama will drop to 27% but I think a tea party type could win at the national level under the right circumstances.

Just as it took the right circumstances for a black liberal to win at the national level. Historically unpopular GOP incumbent, historically unpopular war championed by GOP nominee, economy in worst recession in a generation, GOP nominee stopping his campaign and then supporting unpopular bailout, etc...

Dick Morris, Karl Rove. Or was it Karl Morris and Dick Rove. Or maybe Dick Karl and Morris Rove. Or was it Rove Dick and Morris Karl. The Elitist Republicans, all the same, none of them worth a bucket of warm spit.

[Sirius Lee]

Tea Party types

Yeah, don't you just hate those types? We should run somebody that appeals to the left and can win a national election - like say, a McCain or a Romney - ooo! I know, how about a fat POS like krispy kreme or jebtard?

[Sarah Barracuda]

And Sarah is absolutely right..I am sick and tired of these so-called Republicans going on TV and bashing the Tea Party..if the GOP wants to become Dem Lite they will lose election after election after election. The RINOS wanted Romney, they got Romney, and after all is said and done what did Romney gain..one state(North Carolina) a state the Dems had already abandoned..if the GOP wants to win again they have to go back to their Conservative principals or they will never win again

[grania]

Marc Rubio was there to help Ted Cruz throughout the filibuster. He burned his bridges with the RINOs. We’ll have to see how he handles our demands that the border has to be secured and invaders shouldn’t be in the US. The other RINOs like Flake and Ayotte for example are still being mini-mcains.

[Springfield Reformer]

Bravo, my old FRiend Finny. Well said.

[TWhiteBear]

Sarah Palin can be considered a national Party, de facto, at this time. She, and her policies, as represented by the Senators and Congressmen that her support. with endorsements, publicity and funding, caused to be elected, has the philosophy, people and structure that is already a political party, lacking only the technical definition as such.[Sorry for the Germanic sentence structure}
It may be time to start sending money to her PAC, which I think is legal and available. Sarah Palin has worked and put her own hard earned money into making America a better place.
But we as Conservatives, have our work cut out for us. The people now in power in our government and institutions will never willingly surrender power, no matter how discredited their fanatic philosophies may be. Success will take time, money and real effort.

[mykroar]

and that means that the Tea Party types can’t win at a national level either.

Karl, is that you?

[upsdriver]

Well said Finny! Your posts mirror my thoughts so well.

[newfreep]

Rubio burned bridges with Conservatives when he joined Juan McInsane, Linda Gramnesty, etc to support amnesty.

Rubio is hoping Conservatives forget.

We don’t!

Breitbart: Governor Palin Rips GOP ‘High Roller Machine’

Posted on October 05 2013 - 12:34 PM - Posted by: Stacy Drake

In an exclusive interview with Breitbart’s Tony Lee and Stephen K. Bannon, Governor Palin unloaded on the GOP establishment, saying many things that needed to be said:

Palin told Breitbart News that these establishment financiers cannot relate to the average American worker and are throwing a "fit" because Wall Street knows they are in a whole new ballgame where their influence is diminishing.

Palin was responding to an article by David Freilander in Thursday’s Daily Beast in which prominent Republican establishment financiers showed disdain for the conservative grassroots while being unable to identify exactly what a "precinct captain" is.

Palin, who started her political career on the local level as an outsider before eventually challenging the GOP establishment in Alaska to become governor, said that the "GOP high roller machine can’t win elections with their cash anymore."

"If they could, all the money they threw at Romney would have paid off," Palin said, referring to Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s inability to galvanize the blue-collar conservative base during the 2012 presidential election. "It’s the average American – the grassroots Tea Party patriot with enthusiasm and boots on the ground – who wins elections":

So I say call these guys out and expose the fact that they no longer control any conservative movement because they’re not the voice of the people. See, some of these Wall Street guys basically want to use the GOP for three things: They want low taxes for themselves; they want lots of cheap foreign labor (aka blanket amnesty); and they want to be safe (though most won’t send their own kids to fight our wars, they don’t want anyone blowing up buildings in Manhattan; so they’re all for sending our sons and daughters to whatever foreign hell hole beckons to make sure the bad guys stay off our soil).

Palin, the avatar of the Tea Party movement whom the Republican establishment has tried to eviscerate and whose endorsement former South Carolina Senator Jim DeMint (R) said had the most influence in Republican primaries, was not finished excoriating the establishment financiers who were berating the Tea Party:

Ask yourself if most of them really care about America’s industrial base or can even relate to the American worker and our values. The particular fat cats who are so often used as anonymous sources to trash the grassroots see this latest Tea Party effort to keep essential government open as just a distraction. They’re throwing a bit of a fit because this is a whole new, needed ballgame where their money can’t buy elections anymore.

According to a Daily Beast report, Rep. Greg Walden (R-OR), the chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee, met with top GOP donors for lunch last month at Le Cirque, a fancy restaurant on Lexington Avenue in Manhattan.

The donors, described as "a youngish collection of financial industry types and lawyers" and "banker types who occupy the upper reaches of Wall Street’s towers" were frustrated at what they saw as conservative recalcitrance on the budget and could not understand why Republican politicians had to listen to their constituents and the grassroots who sent them to Washington. Walden told them, "Listen … we have to do this because of the Tea Party. If we don’t, these guys are going to get primaried and they are going to lose their primary.”

[...]

The financial elite and the political establishment, though, often treat these grassroots voters the way Democrats have been accused of treating African American voters–using them for their votes during election season and running as far away from them as possible once they come to Washington. The Daily Beast writes that "a number of GOP donors are wondering if it is time for a little outside counter-pressure to sap the Tea Party of some of its energy," to "stand up and not be afraid of the Tea Party."

The conservatives these donors so disdain revolted in part because of the big-government domestic policies of former President George W. Bush last decade, especially No Child Left Behind and the TARP bailouts during the 2008 financial crisis caused by the reckless behavior from the industries that employ these donors on Wall Street.

These independent-minded Americans are supporting the third-party of "good guys" that Palin recently referenced in speaking of senators like Cruz and Mike Lee (R-UT). They see that the so-called Bipartisan Establishment Party, or "BEP," really did not differ that much from Democrats when it came to growing the size of government and supporting policies like comprehensive immigration reform that benefit themselves and their cronies while harming working class Americans.

[...]

Palin told Breitbart News that "the day the GOP machine abandons the grassroots patriot – the heart and soul of the party who actually gets people elected – is the day the GOP elephant is extinct."

"This keeps up and I’m not sticking around to watch it happen," Palin said.
