I pray you are correct, though I am not a Republican.

The spectrum has shifted far too far to the left and needs to return to reality and responsibility.

I doubt anyone here actually considers themselves Pubs on this board.
Remember, we are a TEA Conservative board.

The GOP is splintered all to Hell and at war with it's base.
If the GOP capitulated half as much with it's base as they do the Leftists, we could probably find some common ground.

What the base is splintered with, is a few remaining Establishment RINO's who are desperate to keep the gravy train running (see Arlen Spector). All Republicans should be suspicious, that the usual suspects keep showing up on Leftard TV as the face of the Republican party (McLame?).

As usual Dobbs is right on the money!! These internal squabbles need to be put on hold until the republicans regain the senate. The democrat will continue to drive a wedge and attempt to split the party because they gain from it. That doesn't mean that conservatives need to roll over but we do need to find common ground.

I agree...the Old Guard of the GOP need to embace their Tea Party members and seek common ground rather than continuing to side with the media (and their Party) and try to stomp out the grass roots of the Republican Party (aka - The Tea Party)....

Patronage is as old as politics. Julius Ceasar rose to power through a patronage system more than 2,000 years ago and I'm pretty sure it wasn't a new thing back then either.

But you are right. The RINOs have more to gain by telling you that you are an asshole that needs to shut up and vote for them so they can do big things. And it's going to work until we get tired enough of being called assholes, drop this codependent behavior and start sticking up for ourselves and our beliefs.

Hear, Hear....!

I'm with you my friend. Let the GOP embrace us. IMO they need us more then we need them.

No we need each other to bury the Dim's. I don't like a RINO but they are no where near as destructive as Reid, Pelosi and Obama! Once we get Both houses then we can push our agenda within our party. If they don't listen then is the time for the third party to rise up!!

Public Lynchin' always gets some attention---going after someone like Lindsey (McCain's Lapdog) Graham..even if we lose the seat (and risk not taking the Senate) is a pretty steep price to pay, but if the same as usual good old boyz see we're willing to go the distance, I'm betting they won't be willing...and then the will want to extend an olive branch to the Tea Party members of Congress and those they represent!

We ought to ride Graham real hard (like a rented mule) and make him bleed!  The Media would have a field day because we are going after one of (our) own, but actually he's one of (their) owned!!!!

If we take the senate Bambie is effectively stopped. The Democrats will blame him for squandering their gains. We may even find enough Democrats to back further investigations into his misuse of power! No we need to get rid of Harry Reid!!

Your right, we need to circle the wagons as a party and take every seat in the House and senate possible. The goal should be to take a super majority in both houses. Won't happen but with that as our goal we may win enough to over come the few turn coats and maintain the simple majority on every vote!
We need the senate this year everything else is pure BS!!

One more thing!! With the control of both houses we would have complete control over funding!!
Instead of shutting the government down we could bleed each out of control department under Obama one at a time!! We need to take back the senate. leave the RINO's until later!!

How many Hollywood film plots could we borrow for making THAT one happen? I kinda like the one about shoving him into a barrel of nuclear waste and storing him in Yucca Mountain.

The squabbling will cease when the campaign heats up. And, when it becomes apparent that actual Conservative candidates can bring in big money without the RNCC, the establishment will shut their cake holes...

They're all gonna run to the right of Reagan when it heats up...

To which the answer is: "Oh really"; and the you lay out the multitude of crimes they've committed. The problem for the Dems is that Obama has left the GOP a full menu of issues to run on. The Dems platform consists of: "the GOP are mean racists". If you've had your old policy cancelled, and are now paying for one that cost you three times as much - if you have one - any GOP commercial with Obama's promises, rubs you raw.
