You whingers are confusing Republicans with conservatives.

Should the Republicans win big tomorrow, the only thing it means is they are place holders, occupying seats formally held by Democrats. The GOP has no agenda, no mandate. They also don’t have the will to govern.
However, it will give those like Ted Cruz an opportunity to shine and work to shape an agenda, a true less government platform going in to 2016. 2016 is the time for the tea party and grassroots conservatives to shine by nominating one of our own. We need to define the issues, control our message and set the agenda. Look to Cruz and Palin to lead.
So a vote for the Republicans is really a vote AGAINST the Tea Party because the Democrats and Obama make are for the Tea Party???
LMAO!
They can spin it all they want, but I do not not know many people, even the Sheeple, that would fall for that one.
In all reality the RINO’s know damn well that their time is numbered in the Republican Party. They all towed the Tea Party line in the primaries and they know it.
The next primary simply requires more moderates to run than Conservatives. If Bush, Christie and Romney all get into the primaries, the RINO/estalishment vote is then split. All that is needed is a coalescing around a single Conservative candidate. Ted Cruz id the most logical and likely of those Conservatives.
Keep in mind too
Politico is Left Wing Garbage.
I don’t know why Rush obsess and has his nose up Politico’s butt???
Matt Drudge has way more credibility than Politico.
Even if the elections aren't stolen outright by voter fraud (by the Democrats), it is apparent that those who succeed couldn't care less about the Constitution or rule of law, only about self enrichment (because what good is power if you aren't getting richer as a result).
It is pretty stupid of them to be saying so, though, before an election which might be their last chance to prevail. Either in their arrogance they think they will win, regardless, or someone is trying to scuttle the GOP takeover of Congress from within the GOP.
In a year when every vote will be needed just to overcome vote fraud, kicking people out of the tent is the wrong thing to do.
Pity they won't show this level of animosity toward the Democrats and Socialists, only people who revere the Constitution.
I reckon that tells us where we stand.
I agree with Mark Levin and Rush - we MUST take the Senate!! In all fairness, the TEA Party hasn’t vetted many of the candidates they have pushed, and it has been disastrous. They need to do a better job in the future.
And that is what everybody is missing. The TP has really focused at state and local level and probably will contorl 35 states legilatures (both houses)after tomorrow.. Convention of States will be their trump card against the Elite.
They are in a state of self-delusion, just like the Democrats.
This was an art of art move that required the GOPe to defend incumbents while TEA Party scored well in open seats!!!
The GOP Ruling Class, including it's leadership (McConnell, Boehner, McCarthy) have done that all by themselves, by their actions and their words of contempt for the Tea Party and it's candidates.
It's not nonsense - Politico is simply reporting what we already know, regardless if it is intended to suppress the vote.
The Rovians and the Leadership only have themselves to blame should they not win what they think is theirs tomorrow.
Exactly. Well said.
Some of us know and understand exactly where we stand. But it requires a constitution not infected with Normalcy Bias and cognitive dissonance.
The fruits of the GOP leadership more than illustrate they hate Conservatives and Conservatism more than what Obama has done to transform the country. They have no interest in stopping it.
Trust me the Leftist in the Media is NOT who you want to listen to for political advise. They are not out there to HELP the Republicans.
I can't believe you are even falling for that $hit??? Do you really think MSNBC, CNN wants to give Conservatives good political advice? My goodness THINK McFly....THINK!!!!!!!
Don't be so freaking gullible.
Who is they? The primary voters gave us romney, not some mythical they... the gope.
So you won't vote for "them" in the future, move to russia where your vote will really count.
You're not a sad American, you and many other here at FR are both stupid and bitter.
Flame away all you purist, holier than thou conservatives, all of you covered with righteous indignation and call me a rino pimp, a sell out etal....
I am a member of the TEA Party, have been to rallies with Quinn and Rose and many candidates, have been inside my congress critters offices, give time and money, been in the Army, paid millions in taxes, and hate the demonRATs, but I'm still not pure enuff for the purists.
Flame on.
Looks like it is time for me to answer a GOP fundraising call again. The best thing that could happen in this country is for the Democratic party to die. The second best thing would be for the Establishment Wing of the GOP to die. We won’t get our country back until BOTH of those things happen, and the Tea Party is best position to make it happen.
The GOPe and the Rat party has done nothing but legitimize the Tea Party by joining hands to attack it. My resolve is undiminished. Double down, my FRiends and keep going after the GOPe. Only by deceit, election fraud and political trickery has the GOPe managed to slow the election success of the Tea Party. “Remember Mississipi” is now our rallying call. We will NEVER give up.
POLITICO:”Direst from the DNC to your screen!” LOL!
RINOs and conservatives fought to a draw this time.
so...
Do you think those in Mississippi should vote for Thad? You know, the guy who partnered with democrats to commit VOTE FRAUD against the guy who had already beat him in the primary and was on track to wipe him out in the runoff?
Should they vote for the guy who paid democrats who had already voted in the democrat primary to vote again in the republican primary? (flatly illegal)
Should they do that?
You whingers are confusing Republicans with conservatives.
That is an ignorant assumption on your part. They are not letting Politico do anything. They (Levin especially) have been informing us of what the GOP leadership has been doing to sabotage and undermine Conservatives FOR YEARS. , and that information has been growing exponentially.
As Rush pointed out - the REASON this is in the Politico is because someone, or someones in the Establishment WANTED Politico to know these things.
If you are going to try and tell us that the GOP Ruling Class does not want to be "friends" with the MSM and 'leak' them info on their strategy and mindset against a common enemy - you will out yourself as a low information Republican voter.
There are like 50 3rd parties already, just join one. As long as you know voting for one of them is like flushing your ballot down the toilet.
The article is nonsense anyway. It is true that some of the Tea Party candidates for statewide office were defeated by more establishment/mainstream options in the primaries, but the Tea Party still makes a huge difference in pushing the party to the right and forcing Republicans in a more conservative direction. This is especially true on a local level, and those local Tea Party winners gain experience and will go on to be better statewide candidates down the road.
It is pretty safe to just ignore all the "Tea Party is dead" stories. This stuff is just wishful thinking by much of the national media.
