    Its attitudes like your I left the GOP and conservative movement. They expect me to bend on my beliefs like open borders and free trade but any small offense against their political beliefs they let the democrat win. That is how got Obama.
    I so go for it and I will bury conservatism next to the Whigs.

    It likely will take a few more bad years (decades?) before the Republicans will go the way of the dinosaurs. So when do we get started?

    Can the third party be the Libertarian party?

    It's still a leftwing cesspool and the only rightwing "conversion" is propaganda that foolish children on the right have bought into and have been corrupted by it's idealism.

    Libertarianism was originally an ideology of the political-left. The right-wing version came later, and is unique to the U.S.

    The Republicans (and their corporate sponsors) were the primary cause of Lincoln's War on Liberty (and the crushing looters occupation.) They haven't changed their stripes, although these days they should be in orange jumpsuits instead.

    Republicans routinely go to great lengths to maintain the two-party duopoly and deny Libertarian Party members access to the ballot and to debates. So it doesn't bother me at all to see Republicans turn on each other. I hope there is a strong Libertarian candidate in this race, as he or she has a golden opportunity to attract the votes of the more freedom-oriented members of the (former?) Republican base, and to position the Libertarian Party as a credible alternative to both of the dysfunctional "major" parties.

    Liberals masquerading as libertarians calling for the GOP to be dissolved and for a "new" third party vote. Where has Ross Parole gone???

    This leftist strategy works for them every time. In the meantime the country slides further and further into a morass of leftwing socialism and a cesspool of liberal perversion.

    Thanks, I never heard it before either... but my memory can be spotty about such things. So many slogans, might be new, might not. Almost everything "new" is derivative from other creative minds.

    Yes, and Republicans are so much like their great-great-(maybe great) grandfathers!!!
    Give it a rest. McDaniels is a sllme-ball and I’m actually very disappointed that people around here want to support him. He is a poster-boy for what is wrong with the Tea Party. McDaniel’s kind is the reason the Tea Party hasn’t improved it’s image by much. Where was the support for the fellow who beat Cantor? He was a reasonable candidate, a soft-spoken intellectual. He was not at all like the big-blow hard McDaniels, who professes his moral christianity while his very moral staff members break into a nursing home to rob an old woman of her dignity during her last days. Screw McDaniels,

    I’m disenchanted in the two-party system, but when the Tea Party chooses candidates that are so extreme that they are ridiculous, tea-partiers kind of ask for the ridicule.
