People like Newt, Huckabee, McCain and others are the problem, NOT the solution.

Yeh, see that Ras poll showing Huckabee preferred in 2012?

The Tea Parties have the right idea. It is now or never. We can not afford to compromise one more time. It is that reason we are where we are – we have made too many compromises.

The NY 23 is a prime example of this, and look we have the great compromiser (Newt) willing to do it one more time. People like Newt, Huckabee, McCain and others are the problem, NOT the solution. They may have some good ideas BUT all we need to do is look at times like these to see that Newt and others will sell us and our principles out. Sorry we don’t need them.

Dr, I no longer object. The GOP has taken up the mantle of General McClellan, of whom Lincoln said after relieving him, “I am no longer willing to bore with an auger too dull to take hold.”

RWY,

My take is the NY-23 is going to show two things:

a) The Republican party cannot maintain momentum doing the Dim-Lite thing.
b) The Teas have more moxy than anybody expected. That a group of unaffiliated street urchins can have a candidate viable in such a short time is a bellwether event. Keep in mind this guy has never run for office before.

Would a party split spell doom for Obama getting reelected? If the cards are played right I don’t think so. Everybody points to the Perot influence for Clinton winning. True. However conditions are not the same now. There are more independents than there are party affiliated people. Even those affiliated, half are what you would call weak associated. Internet makes organization damn easier than before. Get a the right independent candidate with the right issues and the Teas might be able to run a winning campaign.

Do not discount the power of ‘none of the above’.

I knew Bush was soft on the border, but never knew how awful he really was. I thought once he heard the voice of the people, he would listen.

Well, he heard the voice of the people, but not the American people. The Mexican people.

So that sucked.

I must say, TLS, that it is a joy to have you with us on the site. Thanks for all your valuable contributions! And you’re a great poet too!

Well, maybe we can work with Rubio. I thought we could work with Bush too, and what a joke that was.

It’s like Lucy and the football, every time.

I’m with you rwy. I’m done voting for the candidate that “can win” because then we all lose.

Yeah, but I am really really over the lesser of two evils routine.. I can’t do that again….
