As a life long supporter of the GOP, they are beginning to, no, they are turning me off. What is the difference between the GOP platform and the Dems.? Nothing.
Despite all the opposition, it is time for a third party.
GOP vs Dems = Race To The Bottom!
“Despite all the opposition, it is time for a third party.”
I am first and foremost a social/morale conservative. When the GOP drops even the “pretense” of social conservatism...then it is time for me to go elsewhere. Ronald Reagan was once a Democrat and said of that party, “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, it left me.” That is how I feel. The GOP has left me.
Plus, when libertarians (libertines) like Ron Paul are actually considered potential serious candidates for the GOP nomination....that also means the party has left me.
In the ill advised move to appeal to a “broader” group, the GOP is going to lose its socially conservative base.
