U folks don’t get it. Mony and efforts could be better spent on the magic number 60. WE already tried it in 2010. Get over it you Todd Akin fans!

Sure we Conservatives do. Next time we double our efforts and get rid of the RINO. McStain is toast in 2016. Get over it you karl "pig" rove fans.

Practically speaking, it makes sense to target a single US Senate race every cycle for removal of the incumbent RINO (this is what Mark Levin has proposed). In only rare cases will it impact the balance of power in the Senate, and it keeps the other RINOs on notice that we can take them out too should they stray too far.

It looks like the GOP Senate losses in the 2010 and 2012 cycles did have the effect of pushing the RINOs to behave in a more Conservative manner. The downside is that there were so many losses that what should be a 57 or 58 seat majority is now going to be a 54 seat one, going into a cycle (2016) where many more Republicans are defending seats than Dems.

Given all that, I'm in absolute agreement that we need to make it a priority to remove McCain, both in the primary and the general, in 2016. While there may be other targets of opportunity, if we focus our effort on McCain we stand a much better chance of getting rid of him than if we go after multiple RINOs.

And apparently you don't remember the "Gang of Eight."
