According to Susan Collins, once republicans successfully get elected to the senate, they must not be removed from power except by deciding to retire or by being defeated by a democrat.

Those are the only two options and the natural order of things!

The idea that the people should choose a different REPUBLICAN to represent them, is an abhorrent idea!!

Hope this election cycle makes the GOP RINO an endangered species.

Collins is an undocumented Democrat who often works with Democrats to undermine Senate GOP positions. Even after the nuclear option I don’t doubt she would backstab a majority GOP in the senate to burnish her “moderate” credentials.

Because GOP-E Senate seats are matters of entitlement. Right, Senator Collins?

Wasn’t it just yesterday that Cruz was claiming he wasn’t going to get involved in primaries? This seems to indicate otherwise.

“I just would rather see us focus on Democrats,” said another frustrated Republican senator who asked not to be identified.

Awwwww....poor baby. First of all, whoever this is, they didn’t have the balls to even identify themself. Secondly, Cruz is focusing on “Democrats”. He’s focusing on Democrats who call themselves Republicans.

My reaction to this is that WE ARE focusing on Democrats. Where do they think the acronym RINO came from.

Susan Collins, of all people.

Most Red England ‘Republicans’ are Democrats...they support abortion; they embrace the sodomite agenda.
