Gingrich: 3rd Party May Clip GOP in 2012
Constitution Party Likely New Home for Conservatives
Lancaster, PA (April 6, 2009) The county’s fastest-growing third party, the Constitution Party, cites former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s warning that conservatives may opt for a third party ( http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0409/20809.html) as further indication that voters will continue to look beyond the “Big Box” parties.
“If the Republicans can’t break out of being the right wing party of big government, then I think you would see a third party movement in 2012, Gingrich said during an address to students at the College of the Ozarks in Missouri.
Formed in 1992, the Constitution Party has seen increasing numbers of voters switching party affiliation while recording the largest number of new registrations of any party, according to the independent voting analysis publication Ballot Access News .
“Voters used to think they’d be wasting their votes by voting for a third party candidate” said Constitution Party National Committee Chairman Jim Clymer. “Those days appear to be over. I ask those wondering about the third party option how long they think it will take to get the kind of government they believe in, if they keep voting for people who won’t support their views,” Clymer added, reminding “conservatives” who voted for George W. Bush that their support made possible “Bush’s rush toward a fascist economy and a tyrannical federal government and laid the perfect groundwork for Obama to finish the job.”
The Constitution Party points out why major party faithful are feeling betrayed noting the Republicans failed voters on hot button issues like immigration, privacy, civil liberties and spending and the Democrats failed their base on the war and the so-called "Bailouts."
The Constitution Party’s 2008 presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin was endorsed by former GOP presidential candidate, one of the few constitutionally-correct members of Congress, Rep. Ron Paul. CNN’s Lou Dobbs interviewed Baldwin and told his viewers he had a “reason to vote for (Baldwin).” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-DyfFa0tZg)
Clymer, like Gingrinch, believes true conservatives will finally leave the GOP in 2012, noting the lukewarm response to GOP presidential candidate Senator John McCain by party faithful who saw little difference between the two contenders: “… John McCain , if he had won, would likely have promoted the same causes that Obama is pursuing and perhaps would have a more successful record in the results because the Republican faithful would be obliged to go right along with him.”“Now that fully � of all voters label themselves “independent” the new base is neither Republican nor Democrat…so 2012 is up for grabs!”, predicted Clymer.
