Conservatives better find a new home quick - because they are being rendered irrelevant by the party Ronald Reagan adopted.
The GOP will go the way of the Whigs. It cannot survive without the conservatives and the libertarians.
Well the RINOs best enjoy their two years of being Democrats because in 16 it will be 2008 all over again if this is their game plan.
After the 2014 election, the top priority needs to be the organisation of a new Party and the wooing of conservative standard-bearers to it. Let the GOP go the way of the Whigs.
Considering that the GOPe primary victories this year can be attributed to RINOs moving right to innoculate against Tea Party insurgents, they’d have to be really freaking stupid (distinct possibility) to act like there’s a moderate/establishment mandate.
The GOP-E crowing before the chickens have hatched.
” I heard Rush talking about this and his analysis seems spot-on to me. The translation in this article from Establishment Leaders in the GOP is: if the GOP wins the Senate tomorrow, the GOP will declare that a victory over Conservatives and will repudiate the TEA party and drive it from the party. “
The Chamber of Commerce/Wall Street/big banks have spent tens of millions defeating tea party /conservative candidates all across the country. McConnell loaned HIMSELF 1.8 million to make sure he wins.
To add, this is Politico. I’m catching a whif of a last minute Conservative vote suppression effort here.
There’s a lot of over the top propaganda being spread on this site right now by GOPe operatives saying conservatives need to vote for any and all Republicans tomorrow.
I could care less who wins although I expect Republicans to win by default because Democrats are more demoralized than the GOP voters.
Obama has hurt many of his supporters big time with Obamacare, hit them in their pocketbooks.
30 hour work weeks are not a prescription for prosperity.
The GOPe and Obama will continue to cut deals to increase out national debt, spending and taxes like they already have been doing.
The GOPe goal is to be a better manager of big government, including Obamacare.
I will vote Republican for state senate tomorrow and write-in conservatives for other offices including Congress.....
I believe this explains the establishment GOP’s curious lack of interest in pursuing who directed the IRS suppression of Tea Party groups. They are on board with the end result.
Politico is one of the most nauseating left-wing bias news organizations out there.
Liberal journalists are such a sneaky dishonest little snakes. You never see Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity pretending to be some partial distributor of the news. They are always proud to declare their political slant. Liberal journalists always pretend to have no bias at all.
This midterm should be an UNCONTESTED BLOWOUT! Look at the map for crying out loud! Let the GOPe morons crow all they want they will get a rude awakening in 2016 when voters sit home for Jeb and they get massacred in the Senate. If this is the best they can do under these conditions, 2016 will be a bloodbath
Just see my tag line.
Anyone who believes anything that Politico has to say about elections, should get in line to buy some bridges around Gay Frisco. Bidding will start soon.
How did that work out for us????? After wiping out democRATS tomorrow, we go to the GOPe and tell them, "guys you might be thinking that you are in charge but you're NOT." "We've had your number for some time and now you will end your leadership positions, your 'team' with some true conservatives among you!. You can stay in DC that you love than your home state folks but not in leadership in positions to shut down conservatives in your party."
This is not a surprise. If they win, it will be because the Obamanoids are immensely unpopular among intelligent people, not because their candidates are all that popular. But of course that’s not a message they will admit to.
I’ve been pretty quiet this time around concerning the midterm elections, because I feel discouraged. Yes, by all means, Freepers should get out and vote; but more than ever it’s for the “lesser evil.” Who’s the big winner in the photos on Drudge as the election approaches? Mitch McConnell. Ugh.
I’m afraid that the Republican Party isn’t just dying any more. It’s dead. And unless we get strong, reliable, real conservative leadership, the Tea Party will go on drifting around instead of replacing it.
The only one in sight who can pull us out of this mess is Sarah Palin. Nobody else. Yes, I like Ted Cruz, but as a leader and example in congress, not in the White House.
None of that is pretty. So I just haven’t said very much about it. So far, although conservatives are numerous, they have allowed themselves to be outmaneuvered by the press and the political operatives of both parties.
should this article prove true its time for 3rd party.
Ho-hum...
A final political “dirty trick” being played by “Politico” to try to demoralize Conservatives just before the polls open.
The proof: Not a peep about lefty Lindsay Graham and HIS successful “divide-and-conquer” strategy to “keep” his seat.
We need to start looking at GOP senators whose terms end in 2016. We need to find solid replacements for any “big spenders” like Thad Cochran and for anyone who favors “open borders”.
Let’s do this work SOONER rather than LATER...
I predict that they've even made up this so-called 'story,' as much as the plagiarists at the NYT.
The TP will not go away because the TP is all about the federal governments constitutionally limited powers which the GOP wrongly ignores just like Democrats do.
Regarding the GOPs misguided war on the TP and the Constitution, the Constitution needs to be amended to prohibit political party support for the federal government. After all, given that one of the very few powers that the states have actually delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, to regulate an aspect of intrastate commerce is the power to regulate the US Mail Service, why do we need political parties to decide policy for the US Mail Service?
