Trouble is even with the public kicking the stuffings out whats left of them they are still unrepentent and pro left wing socialst.

Wake up Dumbo All your lies and broken promises are chickens come home to roost. We may despise the far left but that leaves your support of left wing socialism even more transparent - which all the GOPs/RINOs/CINOs 'cronyism' boils down/ In the end you are no different than the Left wing socialists and even more disgusting. Your Fired!

The problem now becomes how to dump the despicable Socialists like Trump, Hillary, and Sanders?

Duuuhhhhhh If you were the head of the GOP what steps would you take at this point in time.

Their Rules Committee is leading the way where's beef Dumbos???? Or like the left have you all truly forgotten your oath of office and citizenship?

On the other hand you aren't that hard to replace considering a vote against a RINO is a vote fFOR gaining recognition and representation. Assuming someone got off their couch potato ass and registered for the plethora of positions.

    As Ayn Rand wrote, "There is one side which is right and one side which is wrong, and anyone in the middle is evil." RINOs are therefore and by definition evil,

      There is a character in The Golden Pinnacle by Robert Gore who said something like, "They don't want the country run into the ground unless they are the ones doing the running." Sounds like the RINOs to me.

        ... and as H L Mencken observed,
        All government, in its essence, is a conspiracy against the superior man; its one permanent object is to oppress him and cripple him. If it be aristocratic in organisation, then it seeks to protect the man who is superior only in law against the man who is superior in fact; if it be democratic, then it seeks to protect the man who is inferior in every way against both. One of its primary functions is to regiment men by force, to make them as much alike as possible and as dependent upon one another as possible, to search out and combat originality among them. All it can see in an original idea is potential change, and hence an invasion of its prerogatives. The most dangerous man, to any government, is the man who is able to think things out for himself, without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane and intolerable, and so, if he is romantic, he tries to change it. And even if he is not romantic personally he is very apt to spread discontent among those who are …

      Rinos are the right wing of the left not a separate entity they do as they are told.

      What Rand said was for any question there is a right answer, a wrong answer and a compromise. That makes one right answer and two wrong answers.

      The Compromise finished off the USA and introduced the USSA.

      Rinos being of the left are of course evil and so are their supporters. They admit that when they ask you to vote for the lesser of two evils. That's their definition but it is the only true thing they say.

      Amd.Nelson:
      There was an interesting name given to such creatures around the turn of the last century. It was "Mugwump." Because they had their mugs on one side of the fence, and their wumps on the other side.

    The founders had it right. The idea that political office should be an obligation rather than a career was lost almost as soon as it was stated. Political power is a more insidious and addictive a narcotic than cocaine or meth. It is the kind of power that assures corruption. And it is especially attractive to those among us that are most easily corrupted. Why are there so many scoundrels in politics? It's because politics is especially attractive to scoundrels. It is said "There are some jobs that should never be given to those that want it." Politics is such a job.

    This is all about the banks being pissed that their bond investments are going down the toilet. Unlike the calamity of 2008, this one was pretty foreseeable, as was the Greek debt crisis, Iceland, etc.

    If you keep giving money to a bad-actor that refuses to get a job, the predictability of ever being paid back is pretty low. Sure you can charge a high interest rate or whatever, but that's pretty irrelevant if you are going to get zero or pennies on the dollar.

    The reality is, the risks were well known and the investors did it anyway. Now its time to let them investigate the collateral and get whatever. The taxpayers shouldn't be involved in this in the least.

    I didn't think that I would see what is happening in this election in my lifetime but reality has come to a head and is about to explode in the faces of the establishment.

    My husband predicted that the Dem and Repub establishment would unite against an ever-increasing divide of "libertarian/freedom" and "progressive socialist" in the populace.

    The problem for the establishment is that they cannot garner enough support to overtake the divide.

    I predict that this country will eventually be divided into at least 3 different zones and each will be a type of "Gulch" for the like-minded of each sort...whether progressive, individualistic OR mixed/middle.

    The Dems and Repbs are working together. They are #TeamGovernment, and they are against #TeamPeople. They RINOs are trying to destroy us. They are tried of this fight and want to win this elections. They are fighting for their lives. We must defeat them this time and send them home to mommy. Republicans -- get out there an vote against the RINOs; show them we are here to stay and that we are taking back our government.

      and vote for who? If you vote as a write in or third party in a winner takes all state it goes to either Trump or Clinton.

      The only way to win the game is not play.

      Both Sanders and Trump are exploiting the disgust people have with the current system. They each have wildly different views on WHAT to do to fix it or course. Trump is better than Sanders by far, but not perfect. I would rather no political marketing organizations and a pure one person= one vote systemin a republic which is forbidden to violate our rights

        Ted Cruz. I was for him before he even decided to run. I'm voting for the Constitution and the principles Republicans were supposed to have -- capitalism, low taxes and small government.

          We are all entitled to our positions. I wont argue that Cruz is more tuned into the constitution. But he was NOT electable, and would never win against sneaky, lying, and bought and paid for Hillary (who is the real danger). Cruz has a pedantic and preacher way of talking, and its annoying. Hillary would beat the crap out of him in debates.

            Totally disagree with you. What he said is important; people would gravitate toward his message. He believes in the People, and it shows. You are listening to the GOP about him not being electable. They turned people against him with that line. And, Truculent Trump added the word "liar." We are in a real mess now.

              But the majority of voters DIDNT WANT CRUZ regardless of the goodness of his message. Maybe BECAUSE of his message and the country is too far socialist to respond to his message.

        One person = one vote is Trump's complaint, but he has a lower % vote that the % of delegates. Some state are winner-takes-all, so he has benefited from that; yet, he complains. What a joke.

          The problem is with the system. I doubt he would complain if it was one person=one vote. The delegate system just allows the party establishment to ignore the will of the people in favor of the back room deals. I think the GOP will take a big hit this time for being crooked. It is fixed, but by the establishment, not by either candidate

    A social system is necessary, Hang on don't all shout at once!!! Every one forgets Murphy's law, If it can go wrong it will, A fair social would work (You wold have to work a certain amount of time before you could claim) and an old age pension for the women in your life that have ripped you off of all you savings and money I'm sure we can think of other examples. What I'm opposed to is immigrants coming into the country and getting more benefits than you would straight away! This is NOT fair!!!!!

    So few of us with the "right" to throw stones...even though the left, those that have created these chaotic times on purpose are much much worse.

    Those that have a mind, those that have avoided the pull of the times will expect a pristine candidate and the process of getting noticed, heard and elected is dreadful.

    I myself, have thought of it but cringe at the prospect of long forgotten events in my life being dredged up and slung full force in the perverted lamestream...for us, the rules of engagement are different.

    Could we get by with just saying we too are not without smudges in our lives and just point out our lack of awareness of the forces foisted upon us all and that now we've awakened and wish to repentantly do what we must do to save the Republic...

    Which means there is a lot of fence mending and coalition building to be done in the center . What center. Think Constitution. Might as well the GOP Rinos and the socialist extremist left are thinking left field fence advertising. AKA No one else is using it at present.

      Not a bad choice it's the one I'm using. Some will ask the question gives you the right.

      I'll sum it up.

      When others could have but won't it's left to those who can and will.“

      Remember the three groups in most discussions

      The righteous who are interested only in preaching a narrrow viewpoint and nought else.

      The debaters who are interested only in scoring points and nought else.

      Those who having figured it out roll uip there sleeves and go to work.

      The other two group are of no value and little interest.

      Those who have observed, tested, evaluated and decided this is useful can leave the rest back in what if what about land. They are part of the tests that failed. They are not useful.

      No matter what the source we were given a brain and the ability to use it. We accepted the responsibility. That single act gives us the right.

    Someone said we are all entitled to our position. Really...How about the 46% currently eligible voters who have no representation?

    So we find out in the end Cruz was not only not a Libertarian but a quitter and worse a RINO supporting the script.

    What's left. The Left should be happy they have once again managed to have the only two candidates in their rigged election. One for each brand of socialism.

    There my year old prediction of 95% of ballots cast will be for a socialist candidate.

    As for me I'm voting NOTA. The rest of you can remember the good old days with a Constitution and ....point the finger at yourselves.

    My first judgement was as a professional soldier was correct. You weren't worth fighting for. I wish my former comrades in arms had lived to see the outcome

    What a shame filled act this years charade became.

    USAA congratulations not please change the flag. It isn't yours anymore.

    There is an erroneous assumption that if we cry loud enough, vote them out of office often enough the politicians will realize their error and grant us freedom. There are only a fraction of percent that would do ever grant freedom, the rest are there for the power, prestige and money they can make by being the ones who make the decisions the rest have to live by while exempting themselves. We need to quit asking the enslavers permission to be free and just act free. Of course while there are so few libertines who would actually live free and allow others to do the same the libertines will be quickly erased from the bloodline leaving only those who demand to be slaves.

    The GOP leadership now has a hard choice to make. Change the rules to nominate Cruz -- or become irrelevant as most of their voter base deserts to the LP.

    You are just a Trump hater. I want to at least slow down the progress of socialism. Trump is our best bet for that.

    The GOP and democrats are just marketing organizations trying to collect and protect their power and money. Their rules are set up to promote that, and they pick the candidates who will help in that. They hate Trump because he came in and hijacked the republican marketing organization because they ran out of candidates who could win in November.
