He says that like it's a bad thing.
There is not a single Republican running in 2012 for any office who will not be thinking, “If I reveal the fact that I’m a socialist/statist the Tea Party will get me”.
Damn right.
The stench of liberal fear is palpable in this piece.
The Hill and Politico, just two of the many propaganda organs of the DNC.
Romney (author of RomneyCARE and gay marriage enforced by him)
is not eligible. His father was Mexican.
LLS
Instead of penning such silly articles, this clown might want to read the polls. His party stands to get a butt kicking of historic proportions in Nov because of this sort of arrogant disregard for the will of the people.
He says that like it's a bad thing.
So not being a lock-step party of zombies and sheep like the Democrats means we’re at war with one another? It’s called the democratic process the Hill. At least there’s some free thought still left in our party unlike with that satanic cult known as the Democratic party where they pay mindless devotion to the will of “She Who Must be Obeyed” (Pelosi) and the Grand Zombie Master Obama. I may not like everything out of the Tea Party movement and I don’t always support the candidates they say should have our support, I think some are too far to the right for the states they are running in, but I’m glad conservatism still has a robust internal debate instead of all chanting “Thank you ma’am may I have another?” as our party leaders all beat us into submission such as is happening on the left.
Id rather see Castle get beat tonight and O’Donnel get trounced in November than for this RINO to keep slithering around. Us Tea Partiers need to win the fights we can and go down swinging the fights we cant.
Hmmmm. He’s got a Greek-sounding name. Can’t be good!
The PEOPLE do not support such internecine warfare.
Fact: The McCain/Palin ticket was up ++4 to 10 pts. in some polls, days prior to the election.
The Palmetto Scoop reported: "One of the first stories to hit the national airwaves was
the claim of a major internal strife between close McCain aides and the folks handling his running mate Sarah Palin."
"Im told by very good sources that this was indeed the case and that a rift had developed, but it was between Palins people and the staffers brought on from the failed presidential campaign of former Gov. Mitt Romney, not McCain aides."
"The sources said nearly 80 percent of Romneys former staff was absorbed by McCain and these individuals were responsible for what amounts to a premeditated, last-minute sabotage of Palin."
aides loyal to Romney inside the McCain campaign, said The Scoop, reportedly saw
that Palin would be a serious contender for the Republican nomination in 2012 or 2016, which made her a threat to another presidential quest by Romney.
Erick Erickson said:
"These staffers are now out trying to finish her off
.hoping it would ingratiate themselves with Mitt Romney."

My concern is that, first the party is getting involved in the primary process in Delaware and secondly, they have openly stated that if Castle loses they will not support O’Donnell. I thought the primary was where the party stood down and let the people decide who they wanted then the party supported the people’s choice.
So you would rather go down in defeat and give the Dems another vote for power than support the primary winner. You are no better than the party leaders who say they won’t support O’Donnell if she wins and make the author’s point.
It’s always a numbers game people. Would we like to have the most conservative candidate win, yes. But, it is still ultimately about winning and putting butts in the seats on our side of the aisle.
If the party won’t support O’Donnell if she wins and you won’t support Castle if he wins than in either case the Democrats and O’Bama/Pelosi/Reid win.
Unless the Repubs become the party of true-conservatism, the American people will have no counter option to the true- left Dems.
Just to clarify things. Castle is a Democrat who doesn’t have the decency to run as a Democrat. If he wins, a Democrat wins. If he loses a Democrat loses. We’ve had ample opportunity since 2006 to see where Democrats are taking this country. This country can’t take much more of it. Christine ODonnell is the only option conservatives have in Delaware, and she doesn’t have to worry about doing what the Tea Party tells her. She already knows what is right.
we know those enemies, Pelosi, Reid and whatnot...the Rino’s are like wolves in sheep clothing. harder to detect but just as dangerous. Im not going to vote for a candidate simply based on the fact he/she has an R next to his name. Castle needs to go along with the rest of them, and if the state can get rid of him tonight, then by all means do it.
To take your point of view and reverse it somewhat, you’d rather compromise and take a RINO just to keep a Dem out of office. Thats whats wrong with the republicans today.
THIS IS GOOD!
They ignored us on obamacare
They ignored us on Sotomayor
They RIDICULED us on Kagan (and thought Grahmesty would provide cover)
I would LOVE to see Snowe and/or Collins ousted in a primary next.
The people, represented by the TP are the ones selecting the candidates to represent them from the bottom up, not the R's or D's telling the people who should represent them, from the top down.
The TP understand perfectly how the Top Down principle works, but the establishment doesn't yet understand how bottom-up functions. The difference between the major parties is that the R's have a clue. The D's never will.
They have no idea what is coming their way!
