The democrat would not be in a position to sell out the GOP like the speaker did. Sometimes it is better to go around a brick wall than to keep running headfirst into it.

No. Romney won the Independent vote because he was not Obama. It was the Nobama vote.

If Mitt Romney had won, we would not be facing this tidal wave of illegals, we would not have ISIS . We would not have Ebola in the US and we would not have Putin moving against Eastern Europe. A President Rand Paul would not have prevented any of those things.

The koolaid drinkers are hooked on GOPe elixir. Despite the fact that voting for RINOs for over 30 years has gotten them nowhere.

Winning is a slow process that will take work. It will be incremental and not always obvious. It will mean biting our lip and holding our nose sometimes. It will not be as easy or as automatic as an imaginary SHTF scenario.

Edit

o since a Dem house/Senate and a GOP house/senate are by their actions on Amnesty, defense of marriage, giving muslims weapons, investigating one thing to no end After another the same animal, Where is the win...

Good points all, but if faced with a choice between a RINO and a Democrat-Socialist — the only viable options in a general election — I will do whatever needs to be done to defeat the Democrat-Socialist. The alternative — to help the Democrat-Socialist win the election by voting for a candidate who cannot possibly win or by not voting — is worse for America and, compounding the agony, conservatives gain nothing ... the Republican Party leaders will not “get the message” ... they won’t.

30 years Yard. You spent 30 years failing and making the GOP more lib than ever.

Time to change horses.

It is a slow process, but sometimes you can gain more, learn more, and be motivated more by a loss. Trying to win everything with no thought to the cost is not a brilliant strategy.

I’m all for winning, but I don’t agree that holding the majority leader position but still pursuing a liberal agenda is “winning”.

If FR starts working for Hillary like they did for 0bama, I’m outta here. That means support whoever the nominee is in the general.

There is no difference between a RINO and a Dem. If they are the choices, you write in a conservative Or you elect a lib.

If you write in a conservative, you lose no more than by voting FOR a lib. But if enough of us write in, things ‘might’ change. and that is a ‘lesser evil’ than guaranteed ‘bad’ with the D/R win.

No one here worked for Obama or is working for Hillary, but if you mean we are not to resist and refuse the GOP-e, you might as well leave now. Resist we much.

No, that is not what I said. No purist is supporting Rand Paul. No purist is saying that Republicans need to expand their like-ability. You have two kinds of Republicans, who are unwilling to vote for what they call RrINOs. Labeling the anti-insider Republicans as social conservatives, serves the purpose of both the Paulers and the MSM.

No real conservative would sit out this election or vote third Party. Conservatives care too much for the country.

Rand Paul is a barking moonbat lib. Did you miss his monthlong performance a while back?

Note to self:

400 posts in and not a single GOP fan has addressed the GOP promise to pass amnesty if given power on election day.

Side note, OP has vanished.
