What is the point in this conversation. The vast majority of republicans are centrists or soft right. The Tea Party will never be a major party, not ever. There is no central leadership, there is no platform as in the Republican platform or the Democrat platform and most republicans view Tea Partiers as whackos, nuts, etc. The republicans know very well there is a constitution, the choose to ignore it when it is convenient to do so. Well then if you want to run a real republican as you call it, first you have to find one that will be in agreement with running, and next you have to throw lots of millions at this candidate. Because not only will you be running against the democrat nominee, you will be running against all the repbublican candidates and the strongest one of that group is the presumed nominee of the party so you need to get the word out that the Tea Party is not so rigid, so crazy as is the perception at the present time.

You work with what you have and change from within. No party can survive, america can not survive if we have 4 - 8 years of another democrat disaster. Wake up buddy, no disrespect intended

And that dear conservative friend is why we have Obama, people thinking exactly like you do. In other words you are saying if I can't have my candidate I am staying home and not voting. So when you do that it works like what we have now. It has been like that for years and years when we have a spoiler candidate on the presidential ballot. I will call to mind Mr. Ross Perot, that is why we had what we had and usually when someone is elected they are re-elected so instead of 4 years we get 8 years ie. Barack Hussein Obama. Have you ever heard of working with what you have, I would kiss Romneys ass right now if he were the president instead of this jackass from my home town Chicago. Yea, yea, Kenya I get it. But it is because of people that think like you we have this fool that we have now.

Until the Tea Party has central leadership,in other words a National Committee this will happen time and again. Most Republicans are middle of the road republican, not right. I know the Tea Party is all about less government, smaller government, yada yada. But there is not one leader like the Republican party has as in Rence Prebus and not one leader one candidate who can explain to the the American Public what the tea party is all about. There is Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, but not one who rises above the rest. There is no national platform book of rules as in the republican party. There is no leader on a national level to carry the torch for the Tea Party. The Tea Party needs a national organization. The republicans have the RNC, the democrats have the DNC, but the tea party has nothing, there is like I said, local groups, even a few state groups, but until there is a national leadership and until there is a national leader then the tea party will see more of the Cuccinelli syndrome. In other words,stand alone at a local state level. If there were national leaders and leadership the Tea Party would be a force like the Republican party until then it will be just more of the same.

The law was bad from the start, no members of congress aparently read the law after 3 thousand some pages and the references for this law is said to be over 30,000 pages. I am sad for everyone who lost insurance. It is horrible, it is the worst thing that any president could do to gut punch the american public financially. Not even to mention, worse health insurance for higher prices. My insurance won't be touched because I am a union member and I need it my insurance with having a heart problem. I pray for all Americans that this disaster of a health law will be replaced. It is just another disasterous thing done to the american people. It will not help the economy move up. I don't know of anyone who believes the government that this long recession is nearly over.
