Reverse "Poutrage", Reverse extortion, Putting the screws to the Corporate wing


Instead of being extorted by the Corporate wing via the tired threat of potential GOP control, I shall instead, extort through threat of abstention or third party, demanding an alternative to the "Third Way", and using my own threat of potential GOP control.

In either case the failed ransom is GOP control.

There will be several candidates that throw their hat in the ring. Let us see who the party infrastructure throws their weight behind.

I prefer using my terms when playing "chicken". I am behind the wheel, ready to drive directly at you. I will not turn away first. I look forward to your "poutrage" when the "unthinkable" happens. Not only will I refuse to vote for more of the same, I will put in great effort to defeat more of the same. We are past the "team sport" stage. The nation is on the ropes and it can't take any more.

You may post "I will alert the media". I shall, instead, gather a following.

I will work diligently in this endeavor. I will be relentless.

Recent history demonstrates as much.

The slow motion destruction by corporate Democrats only delays the rebuilding phase. Historically, progressives rule the rebuilding phase. I am for speeding along the inevitable return of the left.
