Republicans Got the Shellacking We Deserve

Hopefully Conservatives will unite to successfully expel all RINOs from the Republican party - RINOs such as Colin Powell don’t really help the cause. Secondly, they need to develop a party strategy whereby its focus would be to appeal not to the supposed objective intellect of democrats, but rather to their subjective automatic all-controlling personal feelings. Instead of trying to win votes by relying on detailed explanations of the rationality of their proposals, maybe they should instead begin to contrast how democrat policies and their own will impact the feelings, jobs, wallets, liberty, and future well-being of the electorate.

Colin Powell is not a RINO-he's a racist Dim.

I hope you're right. The moderates need some place to go and the neo-cons pushing out the moderates will leave you with the Party that will galvanize the rest of the country and pull us all together against our own extremists that will be what's left of the Republican Party. So please, force your moderates out, the way you did me, so that your scariest elements are all that's left.

Neo-cons? Oh please. Obama bombed Libya without the consent of Congress for no good reason and installed jihadists into power. And he is gun running to the al qaeda and muslim brotherhood "rebels" in Syria. So spare me the anti-"neo-con", anti-war rhetoric.

Davole & Lliebman: That’s the irony. The far left considers Obama a sellout but still pick him over Romney; while the far right call Romney (and folks like us moderates) RINO, but still picked him over Obama.

sjust-You are no moderate-you are a far left lib.
Wednesday wasn’t “good morning” in the GOP. President Obama won a second term. Republicans deserve the shellacking we got because the party of Lincoln is running candidates in 2012 like it’s 1860. Old white men just don’t cut it anymore and are not reflective of the changing demographics of the country. America is browning up not whitening up, as evidenced by the US Census findings that minorities will make up 54% of the population by the year 2050.

Americans didn’t buy what the Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney was selling because he was the wrong messenger for a growing ethnically...
