The recent CPAC conference and poll is beyond disturbing. Its downright frightening…
CPAC is allegedly a political action committee of by and for conservative" political operatives. But you wont be able to prove that by the results of the most recent meeting which resulted in 2016 Presidential support for Libertarian Rand Paul and constitutionally ineligible Ted Cruz a Cuban from Canada.
Clearly current members of CPAC like current members of the Republican National Committee (RNC) have totally lost sight of what it is to be a conservative." When even the conservative PACs are promoting non-conservatives and ineligible candidates how in the hell can anyone take a serious stab at electing a real American conservative today?
Would anyone in America vote for a REAL conservative today?
Im afraid we are witnessing the final gasp of the once Grand Ole Party in America. Although a vast majority of Americans identify themselves as conservatives" a shrinking number of those people identify with Americas alleged conservative party the Republican Party.
