Richard Viguerie: Conservative Third Party Would Boost 'Evil' Democrats, Be 'Dangerous For America'

More: http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/richard-viguerie-conservative-third-party-would-boost-evil-democrats-be-dangerous-america

Republican direct-mail pioneer Richard Viguerie has a message for Tea Party Republicans considering forming a third party: The plan would be “dangerous for America” because it would result in the election of “evil” Democrats who would “rewrite the laws of this country so that people who that have our views and values may never win another election.”

In an interview with Phyllis Schlafly’s daughter Anne Cori on “Eagle Forum Live” this weekend, Viguerie said that the formation of a third party “does worse than just elect a Democrat.”

“If we have a strong third party movement, it would split the Republican vote and allow Democrats to win not only the presidency but govern most all states and the Congress,” he said. "And the Democrats being in many ways evil, I think, in their public policy approach, they would rewrite the laws of this country so that people who have our views and values may never win another election.”

“It would be so dangerous for America to split the Republican vote and allow Democrats to have super majorities that we may never win another election,” he said.

I thought he had a new gig rubbing Satan's hooves before bedtime. Further proof that only the good die young.

Both on the left and right. The corporations that own both parties do very little for the mass of their supporters. Both parties are hollow shells and deserve to be deserted.

If you want to win, you have to play the game, even if it means losing at first.

Two local Libertarian candidates officially have been placed on the November general election ballot after the state Board of Elections reviewed signatures on their petitions to be included with Republican and Democratic nominees in the 5th and 7th congressional district races.

Libertarian candidates filed petitions in all 11 Virginia congressional districts to be placed on ballots and for the open U.S. Senate seat. All were approved by the board.
