Deb Fischer - Nebraska (diplacing one D seat in the Senate) Ted Cruz - Texas (beating the RINOs to get the seat of an old RINO)
Nebraska has truly become a Red State. Thanks to TP/Palin Team.
Across the country, some local TP candidates lost because they were dragged down by the national ticket. Allen West and Mia Love(?) lost in FL. So sad.
No more RINO’s will be supported by this Military American!
Anybody what to start a lottery on naming the day Bob “ol’carpet-bagger” Kerry announces his intention to move back to New York?
Forget Palin. She has been trivialized and is not an influence.
Any GOP candidate could have won those seats. Romney won them by 13% and 16%. Palin had nothing to do with it. Now, if Palin’s endorsement had helped Mourdock and Akin win, I’d have been impressed. I like Palin personally, but her political judgment stinks to high heaven. She helped take out RINOs during the primaries in swing or blue states who would have won in the general. She cost us 2 Senate seats in 2010 and another 2 this year.
First, you put a fake headline up, then try to interpret it to suit you. The article you link to does not even MENTION Palin. Talk about grasping at straws.
And a Hispanic R wins in Texas. Wow...did you think they would elect a Democrat? And NO articles I could find about his victory mention Palin as the reason he won.....none.
Palin is like many other likeable conservatives...likeable (to many), but not electable to national office.
So just lean back and watch her as she does what she does, and quit pimping her for something she ain't.
Sarah Palin had little to nothing to do with Ted Cruz winning in Texas. He had broad support all over the state and none of that had ANYTHING to do with Sarah Palin. I was a Cruz supporter and can assure you that Palin had little to do in the scheme of things with Cruz winning.
Palin got Cruz elected? BS! If anything, Mark Levin made him a household name. Palin is a political flirt, nothing more.
You got to be KIDDING me.
Cruz won due to his great campaign and Texas and Nebraska are deep red. Meanwhile we lost all the real swing state races. It was a huge huge opportunity and we totally wasted it.
sorry, those victories do not go to Sarah Palin alone, though she did add her support there
a big chunk of the Conservative GOP funding help from outside, and acting inside the party directly against the GOP-elite, came from U.S. Senator Jim Demint and his Senate Conservative PAC (which he set up on his own some years ago to go head to head against the RINO choices).
As a Conservative and a Senator Jim has been stepping out front, bucking the establishment, working for our new Conservative Senators often before anyone else, and although he has not done as much for his own public recognition as Sarah, she has been no where near the constant force on this issue - a more Conservative U.S. Senate - as Jim.
So, at least give credit where credit is due.
Memo to Palin, DeMint, et al.:
It’s time to set up an annual retreat for all potential Conservative Senate & House candidates. They shall be thoroughly trained on how to respond to provocative Lame Stream Media questions on rape & incest. Think of it as “Foot-in-Mouth Prevention Boot Camp”.
Palin was involved in, but removed from this race.
Palin emerges unscathed.
Ready I hope, and believe, to compete for our future.
