O'Reilly: If The Conservatives Want To Reverse Losses, Stop Bickering Among Yourselves

BILL O'REILLY: All the polls say the same thing. Americans who identify themselves as conservative outnumber liberals by about two to one. Yet, social power has shifted to the left wing precincts. The reason? Organization. The far left is dominating the Internet, the entertainment industry, including the journalistic media. Outside of talk radio and Fox News there are few non-liberal voices heard nationwide.

The intensity of the far left is almost frightening. Many of these people will do almost anything to destroy their opposition. So conservative Americans find themselves somewhat demoralized as they see the Supreme Court siding with the left and the national news media promoting liberal causes on a daily basis.

But some of the blame for all of that falls on conservatives themselves. On right wing radio, you often hear about RINOs, Republicans in name only. Moderates like Jeb Bush are crushed by more conservative commentators. There is a deep division between the far and moderate right.

You don't see that on the left. Moderate liberal people not usually scorned by the Media Matters crew, for example. They concentrate solely on defaming traditional Americans. That's very important when you have a division among conservatives and a consolidation among the left -- the power shifts to the liberal precincts.

Did you know that in the last presidential election 82 percent of self-identified conservative voters cast a ballot for Mitt Romney. That means 17 percent voted for President Obama. In 2008 election, 20 percent of self-identified conservatives voted for Mr. Obama. Believe me you are not going to get that kind of flexibility on the left. They stay true to their school as the Beach Boys once sang.

If our candidates stop bickering, the MSM will describe them as “monolithic” and “boring.”

We're not sheep. We're supposed to have these fights and debate.

That's what the Left just doesn't get about conservatism. They laugh and talk about how the GOP has a "Latino" problem or are always "divided."

The Left always vote in lockstep. There's no debate, no nothing. Just whoever is popular gets the nomination.

Conservatives can’t stop bickering on this website either. Time to stop bashing conservatives who think differently.

Most of the right should rethink the strategy of pre-emptive surrender we engage in to make the left hate us less.

Of course not. Who on the left is running? Hillary........

Who on the right is running? Everyone except me........and every one of them is being anally examined by the MSM and tossed to the conservative wolves for us to devour.........

Bill is right, we're eating our own..........

It was awful. It was a lecture from an old aunt

No regard for the fact that the GOP congress is85% liberal. In the wimps move on wing

Trump does well in the polls

The mystery is no mystery.

Americans by genetic predisposition despise wimps and exalt integrity and chutzpah

The bickering is between conservatives and corporatist anti constitutional wimpy greedy squishy people who have lied to get into position to join the Marxists in charge

Irreconcilable, bill

The bickering is not between conservatives.
It's between those Republicans who are posing as conservatives and the real conservatives who have been betrayed by those posing as conservatives. I am seriously considering not voting for any so called Republicans in 2016. I've had enough of their mendacity and "bipartisanship".

I have never had a problem with a debate

Orielly would do better to assist in the leadership of how to place a good argument. Conservatives are not afraid of that And they will get together behind a good leader. Who is he thinking? Boehner? McConnell? McCain?

btw on this very point, Cruz v couric one hour media match is a must see

Unlike the Left, we do Vet our candidates.
The Washington Cartel shall not choose.
We know FOX is all about Bush.
