My Vote? RINO's Need Not Apply

I've never made a secret of my disdain for polls and pollsters. I truly believe that if they're not outright useless, they're harmful, particularly to political thinking.

While watching Fox and Friends this morning, pollster Frank Luntz was interviewed about the Republican field being in New Hampshire. Luntz has a focus group - one of my least favorite phrases - of likely Republican primary voters.

Luntz says that, according to his group, no one candidate has risen to the top as an odds-on favorite for the Republican nomination. That's not really a surprise given how early in the race it is.

Then he says his focus group believes that electability is more important than ideology.

Yes, you read that correctly.

I know that we're talking about New Hampshire here, but really?! Not worrying about ideology is what led to King DingleBarry's coronation.... Twice!!!

We need a conservative, plain and simple - a true conservative.

There is an ENTIRE GENERATION of voters who don't even know what a true conservative is, let alone what a true conservative looks and sounds like. We need someone who can articulate why conservatism is best for all.

Romney, McCain - not conservatives. Jeb Bush - not a conservative. I would even hesitate to call Marco Rubio or Rand Paul conservatives, although they're much, much closer than Romney and McCain have ever been.

There's a time and place for voting for the lesser of two evils. The primaries aren't that time and place. After the last two presidential elections, I'm not sure even the general election is the place and time anymore.

2016 could possibly be the most important election, not just in our lifetimes, but in the history of the nation. The next president could either be the final nail in the coffin of freedom - or the beginning of the restoration of that freedom.

Time is running out for us. The window to save what we all love is closing. We need this one, and I believe the only way we can win is with a conservative - unafraid, unapologetic, uncomplicated and, most importantly - unabashed. ~ Hunter
