Maybe it's time for normal Republicans to form a third party

[bobloblaw]

yeah that third party can be made up of the 6% who support Yeb Bush

[bobloblaw]

normal Republicans = Republicans from states that never vote Republican

IOW Republicans you should never listen to.

IOW, people who were Republicans before your natural home (the Democrats) got too "elitist" for you.

I guess Paul LePage is good

The modern Democratic Party is definitely not bobloblaw's natural home.

But the parties never changed! The parties are always going to be the same! Democrats are racist xenophobes while Republicans are great wealthy moderates!

The parties changed, but they haven't switched like some simplistic moron who's never read anything about politics would believe.  Quite frankly, I'm glad people like boboblaw don't have a natural home.  The Democrats are too accepting and open-minded for him, and the Republicans are too business-oriented and fiscally conservative for him.  His views (those of a Dixiecrat) are antiquated and irrelevant, and he deserves to wander in the political wilderness.

I wish you and the rest of the non-nativist GOP luck in getting rid of people like boboblaw.

The whole country will be better off for it.

That way the GOP can focus on making life miserable for all poor people, regardless of race!

Under Reagan all income groups saw their incomes rise. Under Obama only the top .1% have done better

IMO the RINO's need to be purged from the party, if they're not advocating the policies of the Republican party they can go join the Democrats we don't need them.

1) What has happened to you?  You used to at least kind of make sense, now you seem to have gone full Ted Cruz.

2) Who defines who's a RINO?  I bet boboblaw disagrees with GOP policy as much as I do, but because he rails against being "PC" and is xenophobic, he's the "real" Republican?  GMAFB, dude.

I realized your wing of the party is a joke and needs to be purged over to the Democrats

If you don't like us, why don't you leave yourself?  We were here first before all the Bible-Thumpers and racists in our nation's worst region got mad at Grandpappy's Democratic Party and came running here.

You never won an election since 1956 without us.

When the "moderates" call our ideologies dangerous and shoot us down without question and mocking us constantly (not that I care) seems like the "moderates" don't want our votes or support, which is fine, but don't cry to us when you keep losing Presidential elections if you lose libertarians, conservatives etc.

... Did you vote for Mitt Romney?  Because my point is that I don't think these libertarians and conservatives are going to vote Democrat or third party, and even if they do, they tend to live in states that are already in the fold.  We don't need more votes in Alabama or Oklahoma or even the not-so-populated Florida Panhandle.  We need to start winning suburban voters who 1) tend to live in swing states and in more populated areas and 2) tend to vote more often, making them more important on election day.

So, pretty much, I dare them to support a different party.  We'd both be happier with where we are apparently, and I really don't think it'd negatively affect GOP electoral prospects that much, especially not long term.  It really sounds like they're p^ssed off because they don't have more influence but ... why should they?

Id say you do need more votes from the FL panhandle. It is part of FL afterall.
