Many think the Republican Party is broken. It isn't. They are. At least they have broken the faith with that which they pontificate, a true conservative majority.
Independents, moderate Democrats and traditional working class voters are being dragged to the left by the liberal coalition within the Democrat Party. This should be an opportune moment for conservatives that wish to preserve our Republic, but it isn't because they want to stomp off in a huff, they thinking they are taking their football thus ending the game by rupturing the Party to make it stronger. Hello?
Now moderate Republicans and RINOs are shaping the Party and are moving it left towards a Soros world of Socialist delight with the Democrats.
Any person with a sense of history or current events should be able to grasp the lunacy of third Parties. They do not work. They never have. Oh, they will list the great things they have done, especially how, say in New York, they forced the Republican Party back right, but their great accomplishments are unmeasurable and exist mainly in minds clouded by delusions of greatness.
Party work is hard. It can be stupefyingly boring, it can be confusing, it can be incredibly stressful, but it is the best of America in that consensus and compromise are what make America great. These modern conservatives want change now (sound familiar?) and are now bitching because they are unhappy with John McCain and with the dark and mysterious groups within the party that are really Socialists in Republican clothing. If these damned fools are so prescient where the hell were they when the work for this election cycle was being planned? Where was their voice? Where was their expertise? Where was their organizing skill, their fund raising ability? It sure as hell wasn't helping to reshape the Reagan Republican Party. These 'saviors' were no where to be seen when and where they would have made a difference, but they are now making a difference by not only being not involved, but helping to destroy the Republican Party. Liberals are laughing at you. Liberals are laughing at us.
Some of these vaunted groups, such as the Independent, Libertarian, and Constitution, along with Federalist Republicans, say they will form a new party and sway our nation. What crap. They can't even sway a dwindling Republican Party, but they are going to save the Republic through their unique blend of political acuity and their purity of 'ism?
All they're going to do is build some personal fiefdoms and raise some money. The same money that they decry in the left, but their's will be pure money for a pure and right ideology. Kinda like raising money to stop money raising or steal the vote to prevent it from being stolen (sound familiar II?).
Our Party was built on Faith and faith. Faith in ourselves, what is right and faith in our God. There was a time that party-faithful meant something and it was something good because Party, faith and hardwork accomplished things. Where is your Faith and faith? It isn't residing in the common good.
I pray that John McCain wins, not because I believe him to be the best candidate, but because he is the better viable candidate. If, God forbid, Obama wins, well, you'll make your money, your 'new' Party will get some headlines and you'll feel all self important, but America will be worse off and in many ways you will be responsible. When the bulwarks need manning, you'll be off elsewhere bleeding strength from the effort.
In 10 years America will be still here, maybe better off, maybe not, but your great third Party will have gone the way of the Bull Moose Party leaving in its wake a reversal of 1916 where today's liberal Republicans will take complete control of the Republican Party.
Thanks a lot guys. Really. You're doing a tens of millions of dollars worth of work for free. For Liberals. Save the Republic, indeed.
While you're doing important things like designing your new party logo and getting out your all important fundraising appeals, the rest of us will be doing yeoman's work to help get real Conservatives and Republicans elected.
