I might vote GOP over time every time, but I always vote TEA over GOPe, every time.

2. The time to vote TEA is the primary.

3. The time to vote GOP is the general election.

Advantage: GOPe

As long as they maintain control of the primary process, they maintain control of your choices.

When enough of us vote TEA in the primaries, then it will matter.

When they win by gaming the primary process, a million voices are raised. For Mississippi conservatives, the fight is on a recount AND fixing the primary. The focus on the GOPe’s method is now under the microscope. Did they expect that? Probably not. Babour took big hit because of it.

Should they simply give up? No, and I don’t think you are advocating that. Fight.

Look, if my argument is I want the GOPe to win, that would be another thing. I want TEA to win. I vote TEA in every primary. Sometimes that is ALL it takes. Celebrate that! We wouldn’t have guys like Ted Cruz otherwise. And not every long-term GOPer is a GOPe. I voted for Jeff Sessions, R-AL, in the past primary. I’m PROUD of that vote. Let’s simply ensure he has more like minded senators this year, but at the least, let’s not saddle him with more democrats. If the GOP, even with all the GOPe’s that are included, win, Jeff gets a committee seat. And THAT is a very good thing.

In WWII the American strategy was defeat the Nazis first, then focus on Japan. All I’m saying is the democrats are our Nazi’s, and the GOPe is Japan. We can actually fight BOTH. But the battlefront against the GOPe is in the primaries. The battlefront against the democrats is in the general elections. We are, again—my opinion, winning. It IS hard work. Just keep it up.

Not true. Advantage GOP.

The GOP is a house divided, and it's our job to take it back, but it is the only game in town for conservatives.

As long as they maintain control of the primary process, they maintain control of your choices.

True True True!

Get 'er done.
