Republicans’ strategy for CR / Debt Ceiling should be single demand: ObamaCare delay until a bipartisan panel certifies site working and settled law implemented as enactedno waivers!

My first thought exactly! But I knew Cruz couldn’t say it.

“People were feeling helpless.

Exactly! WE!!! caused the House of Representatives to hold the line for two weeks, frustrating Harry Reid no end. And nobody’s gonna make be believe that he wasn’t fuming in his office. Chuckie Schumer’s up against a master chess player now, a fearless fighter. Despite the narrative, we drew blood, and they know it!

The key result of the Cruz effort was the focus and sunlight brought to bear on a failed, socialist concept.
Next, it helped to define which EGOs were more offended by the attention he received than were truly concerned about tactics.

That's not a strategy, that just more collaboration masquerading as a strategy.
Get back to us when you figure out a strategy that is actually an act of opposition to Obamacare.

" Lastly, it proved the need for Republicans to unite and stand firm together in their resolve to defeat Obamacare. "
It showed the need for an immediate purge of the GOPe leadership.

It got 0bama and the Dems to commit multiple forced errors and exposed a load of RINOs for what they are.
I'd call that a success. :-)

I feel real sorry for Barry. He thought things would roll out smoothly.
He thought nobody would notice nuthin.'
Now he has to work hard to get rid of the smell of that dead skunk stinking up the undercarriage of the car.

It also gave us an easy question for the next Repub debates. “Where were you when Ted Cruz was standing up there all by himself?”

It is a strategy, Mr. Belligerent. It would effectively kill ObamaCare, and win the PR war.

Nope, it wouldn't.
All it does is move the pain and the inevitable collapse of Obamacare to after the 2014 election cycle giving the Democrats a better chance of regaining the House and keeping the Senate.
Better to either have the fight out in the open now, ALA Cruz, or leave things as they are to make lots of people mad.
This middle ground approach is like moderates, absolutely worthless.

The right move in a world with a fair and impartial press.
IOW, the wrong move, politically.
Still like Cruz, though.
To: cotton1706
That in itself was worth the effort. Smoking out the RINO’s to target for
primary challenges! We won’t get them all, but we can get a few.

How is delaying Obamacare until it “works” a strategy? And do you seriously think we can ever win a “PR war” in this media environment?
To: freerepublicchat
By that metric there are no 'right moves' for conservatives.
If we had a fair and impartial press there would be no such thing as 0bamaCare and
0bama would have never been elected a U.S. senator much less president.
