“Yesterday, on Hannity’s radio program, Rand Paul suggested that we should not try to unseat republicans in congress, but focus on democrats.”

Just think where we would be today if the Republicans in the US Senate were all like Ted Cruz. Reid would be crapping his pants! The fact of the matter we need to focus on electing conservative “leaders,” like Cruz which necessarily means we need to “primary” most of the sitting GOP Senators along with the RATS. And we need to be willing to admit that this strategy will sometimes result in a RAT taking over the seat of a RINO, but that can be held to a minimum by running effective, well-vetted candidates.

A good point....but in the long haul I think its better to clean out the GOPe. We always win when we stay true to conservative issues.

Potomac fever is a dangerous disease and the ballot bix is the only cure!

Our conservative candidates have to be strong and savvy enough to stand up to the liberal partisan media, the dems, and the republican establishment. Sadly, a good number of our candidates have not been up to the task. Hence, we lost some winnable elections.

We also have to admit that a traitor in our midst will always result in our defeat, and it is absolutely necessary to destroy the traitor before we can prevail.

How soon they forget...had that been the rule of the day, Rand Paul wouldn't be a Senator today.
