I have been toying around with the idea of writing a post asking do conservatives still need the Republican party?<br /><br />As I watch how from January when it seemed like all hope was lost, to today where the Democrats are reeling. I realize that all that happened because of conservative grassroots not anything the Republicans did. As such, should conservatives cut ties with the GOP after 2012?Clifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-83241697349681796392009-09-19T03:14:53.500-04:002009-09-19T03:14:53.500-04:00Fruitcake Sandy:

In that era the Democrats were the conservatives; more properly, they were downright reactionary.<br /><br />When the Great Inversion of the Sixties happened, Democrats fully internalized "Progressive" ideals and at least partly took on socialist programs as regards Government intervention. The Republican Party moved a little to the right. Olympia Snowe is correct: she didn't change, the Party did. John Kennedy could say the same if he were alive. The Republican party is <i>not</i> Conservative, and it never has been.<br /><br />Beck is an example of conservatives choosing new leadership, now that we aren't part of the Reagan Coalition any more. And Conservatives, individually and as a group, can read Alinsky as well as anyone.<br /><br />Regards,<br />RicRic Lockehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08937543097881679980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-59943749355651457582009-09-18T11:47:31.116-04:002009-09-18T11:47:31.116-04:00Excellent article and right on the money ..

This is because people still want to see for themselves what all the fuss is about so they tune in. Once they tune in, they find that these guys are highly effective.Clifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-7966772880247775932009-09-18T10:05:40.798-04:002009-09-18T10:05:40.798-04:00That was a very astute analysis, Clifton B.

Then the left started their boycott of his advertisers and I started listening to him. Funny how that works.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
