REPUBLICANS HAVE LIED LOUD AND CLEAR THAT THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH CONSERVATISM. Six years of total Republican contol in congress and the Presidency brought bigger government, federal budget deficits, meddling in world affairs leading to bogging down american troops for 4 years and potentially many more to come, more pork spent on the hill then any other time in American history, a falling dollar, and, record gold price increases (which stem from world instability).

You are mostly correct. The Republicans turned into Democrats when it came to governing. They abandoned the ideals and beliefs that got them elected in the first place.
They won't gain control unless they go back to their core conservative beliefs. Even if they do win without converting back to conservatism, what's the point? They'll just be governing like democrats.

It appears to me that the lines that once clearly defined conservatism and liberalism have become somewhat cloudy in todays world. I feel that the changing morals and global innovations such as the www have led to shifting opinions in the GOP and the Donkey parties.
It may be that we are on the horizon of a new party system structure the likes of which we have not seen since the Whigs were popular. To answer your question, NO.

not a US citizen, yet i does not vote for the republicans even in 2012 while they run against Obama who had to do "the main sparkling administration ever" yet ended up doing the different. If the alternative is between, actually, Obama and Cthulhu my selection could be Obama. yet this is the completed element, i don't be attentive to the form you adult adult males can stand your 2-occasion equipment. In maximum ecu worldwide places human beings have extra techniques to decide on from and for this reason their votes are properly worth extra. If the equipment consistently forces you to compliment between 2 undesirable techniques then the equipment is broken.

Hey! There are still a lot of us true conservatives left out there. We just haven't had a voice! We're awake and plan on taking our party back.
Meanwhile, you Dems should be considering doing the same!

Yes! Republicans are very conservative with the truth and intelligent thought. They are also conservative with the proper use of the English language. They tend to use the "Good - Ole - Boy" talk so as to make people think they are just regular folks and not thieves who lie often.
The S.S. GOP is sinking fast, and it looks like Skipper Bush is going down with his ship.
That’s only fair -- after all, he’s the one who torpedoed his own ship with the immigration-reform-bill warhead. Not fair is the fact that he’s taking his party down with him.

I'll bet you thought all those mind altering drugs flowing around in the 70s would have no effect on the future.

Not anymore. Just a few remaining holdouts (bless them). The Republican party has been totally taken over by the neo-con RINOs (Repubs In Name Only).
