Todd Tiahrt ran far more strongly than anyone had expected. Hopefully, he’ll be heard from again.

Better than expected is just another way of saying he lost. Conservatives have still not shown they have the numbers, and will make the effort, to force meaningful change in this Country. The November elections look to be a mixed bag, at best.

Todd Tiahrt should have won. Moran Vs. Tiahrt 12K votes difference, Little + Londerholm 17K votes wasted.
Focus and discipline by voters is required if Our Republic is to survive! JMHO

Haslem is going to win because of his East Tennessee base, big bucks and the relative low name recognition of his opponents. He has certainly not run as a moderate but never the less he will be the next governor of the great state of Tennessee. A GOP pick-up by the way.

Yes, but we have forced Moran to the right.
Moran's district had no idea how bad Moran has been, at times.
Now, Moran can not get away with it anymore.
Moran will be a much more conservative Senator now, thanks to Todd Tiahrt.

Woo closer than expected.

Only light disappointment if any need be registered.

IOW we are still plagued by vote splitters and idiots.

We even have one posting here in FL.

If little and londerhold pulled out there would be no establishment GOP candidate.

We have vote splitters popping up now and looking for “conservative branding” in order to attract and split a few votes to clear the field for RINOs.

Principled useful idiots.
