The same thing happened here in Indiana. Susan Brooks ran as a rock solid tea party conservative and after she won she went total RINO before the ink on the ballots was even dry. She followed Boehnor’s marching orders on every bill that came up.
He has represented my district for the past 2 years. I wouldn’t have voted for him this time and won’t vote for him for the Senate. He is looking to run for Marco Rubio’s Senate seat. If he gets the nomination, I will vote third party. He has been a HUGE disappointment.
Will there/could there be a primary challenge mounted against this worthless P.O.S.?
This stuff is happening all over. An incumbment challenger comes to the Tea Party for support; they support him and he gets elected. They monitor him after he’s in office and find out he’s failing to do what he said he was in office. The Tea Party contacts him and say’s what’s up? You’re not doing what you said you were going to do; he gives a few flimsy reasons but we know why he’s flipped to the dark side; pocket stuffing. So the Tea Party withdraws their support and THEY get called the bad guys. This is the reason so many RINOs and Rats hate the Tea Party. They know they have strong influence in politics so they slam them because the Tea Party holds their feet to the fire and makes them accountable (probably doesn’t to be said in these parts but I wanted to comment)...
After watching one after another of these so-called "conservative" TEA Party folks, makes me want to look who exactly (and I DO mean names) backed them and from which organization - ala Eric Erickson, just to name one!
Erickson stood behind more than one charlatan running as a conservative but he failed to get him elected and still has his thong in a wad over that!
Trust me FR folks, there are plenty of people who talk a good game but at the end of the day, merely want to be kingmakers so they can catch a ride on the gravy train, just like liberals have done it for decades!
Lust for power is a mighty big drug that affects us all, if we're not careful!
Seriously, look closely, those of you in FL, who gave Jolly his street creds? There you might find some people wanting a seat at the table for more than honest reasons.
I’ve been meaning to email my congressman, Jolly to let him know what a disappointment he has been. Thanks for reminding me. I just did it. That’s one senate vote he won’t be getting from me.
