Karl Rove says that "sane Republicans" will start showing up on election ballots, and that's got the Tea Party is up in arms.
And best of all veteran conservative activist Richard Viguerie has offered a whopping $10,000 prize to any grassroots conservative who can submit a plan or ideas to take over the Republican Party, win the November 2016 elections, and govern America by 2017.
An outside poll is asking how the Tea Party Patriot who comes up with the winning plan to save the GOP is going to spend that fortune.
- Install a skylight in their bomb shelter?
- Finally get that back-alley abortion?
- Stash it all under a mattress so as not to jeopardize their government handouts?
How do YOU think the savior of the GOP is going to spend their prize money?

The failure of the rushpublicans and teabaggers is their entire reason for being is to destroy government thus they can't govern. They're in constant campaign mode...and that mode is to "prove" the Raygun mantra that "government is the problem". Any rational politician had to give up on the concept of accomplishing anything other than to stay out of the bad graces of rushbo, beck and the great unhinged. Any "moderate" is sure to face a challenge and this silly PAC (yet another scam to separate the tea from their bags) shows how corrupt their inept party has become.
I'm quite happy with most of the oxygen thieves they've run for office...they make Democrats look more and more reasonable and responsible...
