They (GOPe) keep parroting why I should vote *against* the Demoncrat. Well, I don’t need any more reasons to vote against the demoncrats, I’ve already got plenty.

What they should do is start giving me a reason to vote *FOR* the GOPe candidate. I haven’t heard a single peep in that regard. The (conservative, tea party, etc.) candidates are giving me loads of reasons to vote *for* them. How does the GOPe propose to attractively differentiate themselves from the conservatives?

There’s an additional burden the GOPe must shoulder: why should we believe anything that comes out of their mouths? Even if they did try to “meet or beat” the conservative candidate with promises to reduce govt, promote liberty, restore fiscal sanity, etc — why should we believe them, given their history?

Tough row to hoe for the GOPe. Words are cheap and the GOPe’s combined history is littered with wooden nickels. Actions speak volumes. They can start by growing a legislative spine. I’ll just hold my breath...

I’m starting to think the Dems might increase their Senate majority this year, the GOPe seems to be trying to lose this election.
