How the Republican Party Committed National Suicide
By JB Williams Friday, February 1, 2008
Republicans no longer control the Republican Party and as a result, they cannot advance a truly Republican candidate through the current liberal leaning primary process.
By the time 99 percent of Republicans get a chance to vote in the primaries, all real Republicans will have already been eliminated from the race. Lesser evil choices are all that remain by Super Tuesday…?
How it Happened
It happened courtesy of two important factors.
First, Republicans refused to unite behind any of the conservatives originally in the race. They were divided, and all of their candidates failed as a result.
Evangelicals think Pastor Huckabee is the real conservative in the race based solely upon his evangelical preaching from the stump. Fiscal conservatives think that business man Mitt Romney is the real conservative in the race. Anti-war isolationists think that Ron Paul is the real conservative in the race. Border security – national sovereignty conservatives thought that Duncan Hunter or Tom Tancredo were the real conservatives in the race. War on Terror hawks thought that Rudy Giuliani was the real conservative in the race and the base of the Republican Party, those who are fully conservative on all the above, thought Fred Thompson was the real conservative in the race.
As a direct result of these divisions, the one candidate that is by no means a real conservative in the race, John McCain, is currently leading the race for the Republican nomination. Failing to unite early behind one of the conservatives, left the door wide open for the worst possible result, John McCain.
The second factor is a broken primary process. McCain is not being nominated by conservatives or for the most part, even by Republicans. He is being nominated by liberal voters from liberal leaning states, who hold the earliest primaries and vote to eliminate all conservatives from the race before “fly-overâ€
