’16 Republican Primaries

This is just a Conservative Political porn fantasy

RESIZE: AAA

Lately, I am so encouraged by this overnight swell in Conservatism and defense of civil liberties ala Senator Cruz and Senator Paul. I wet my finger, stick it in the air and feel the winds of war ever so slightly shifting in our direction. What’s the reason for it? Good old fshion Conservatism. It works. People like it when they see people standing up for the things they hold dear to their hearts. It is mine and I am sure everyone else’s hope that this enthusiasm grows larger and translates into glut of Conservative canidates come the primary  season in ’16. If all goes according to hoyle and we get canidates such as Rubio, Cruz, Paul, Lee, fill free to continue the list, then it is truly a win win for the voters. Well as in my subtitle, this is my ultimate political porn fantasy. And if it comes true, this is what I’d like to see.

I’d like to see our canidates up there having a pleasant exchange about Conservative ideas. In otherwords, let’s have  a bloodless primary where the prize of front runner goes to the canidate who best represents and expresses our policies. I would also like to see them huddle up and make a pact that neither of them will dig up dirt on the other. There are plenty of scumbag Democrat operatives to do that and we should see no need to help the otherside. And if we insist on punching a few noses, go after the hack’s that always seem to get chosen as moderators for these debates. In fact, you have my permission to tear them new ones; that would be one way to energize the base– plus, seems to me one of the key components to victory is wounding the media like we did with Dan Rather in 04. I can’t stress  enough how important it is to go after the media.

A bloody primary signifies lousy canidates. Since they have nothing substantial to contribute to the Conservative cause, they mask that by tearing their opponents apart who they are going to need  on their side against their real opponent. Plus a tiger in the primary usually equals a kitten in the Presidential bid. So, let’s have a clean and hopefully short primary packed with Conservatives.

    The RNC and Republican candidates have demonstrated a certain stupidity when it comes to debates. I cannot think of a more destructive practice than to allow hostile MSM moderators to infiltrate the GOP selection process. We may as well have the debates broadcast exclusively on FOX rather than allow the leftist media vandals the opportunity to dictate the flow of Republican primaries.

    • plumely

      I agree. But, just in case, this is how we should treat the moderators. Ideally, Brit Hume , Chris Wallace, and Brett Baer should be the moderators.

      • roryfreedom

        The GOP should appoint Newt Gingrich as referee between the moderators and the candidates. If someone asks a spitball question, Newt just blows a whistle, throws out the question, delivers a stern lecture, then devours the liver of the offending moderator.

        • plumely

          I did like Gingrich for that reason but then as always he goes off the rails like when he gave Obama Bain Capital

      I don’t think it should be exclusively fox, it should include Breitbart.com, and redstate, national review, maybe national journal but they’re iffy; and maybe one or two conservative newspapers

    I’m not going to concern myself with who our 2016 Presidential candidates are going to be until after the 2014 election. If we want to discuss anything about 2016 now, then IMHO it should be how we’re going to conduct the primaries (and caucuses).

  • midwestconservative

    Exactly, many people talk about how we should start buying out MSM news outlets, or get rich conservatives to do that for us, however thats is a long drawn out process, and as Al Gore proved, they could just refuse to sell to any already prominent conservative,
    Instead the GOP should use each and every one of their televised debates, whether its on the state level or the national debates; If they goe on Rachel Maddow’s show than they should have a whole lot of dirt on her to expose, and an answer to any conceivable gotcha question she could muster.
    The Media must needs first be fully discredited before and after any election

    Three thoughts.

    1. Doesn’t matter who Republicans run, only matters what they do. Not sure we need to be democrats and have open primaries. We should let Republicans only decide what Republicans should run. That will cut out a lot of the blood letting because they won’t have to appeal to the independent to win a primary. And they shouldn’t.

    2. We don’t need too many primary debates and it should be focused on policy. Again, have closed primaries and the tone will change.

    3, Lets talk industry, not jobs. Industry is what made this country great and what built the big cities, what is now the big blue cities. It is the Democrats war on industry, not poverty that we should be fighting. The poor are the remnants, by and large, of the mass movement to the cities, not for welfare but for the opportunity that the greatest industrial nation in the world provided. End the war on industry and we win the war on poverty. And of course, we can use that to shut off the funding to things like the NRLB, the federal EPA, the HHS, and a whole range of spending by Washington government we can’t afford.
