Shame on you
This is Karl Rove’s dream election. He should be running away with it.
Keep in mind this is the same guy who barely beat John Kerry in 2004 and who led the GOP to a historic wipeout in 2006.
Unless the judges get it right or Cochran bows out, the RINO backstabbers crossed a bridge too far. If McDaniel doesn’t have that nomination, and soon, I don’t even want the traitorous RINO backstabbers to control the US Senate!
Not a dime more for the GOP from me. I only donate to known Conservatives.
After Declaring War on Tea Party, Karl Rove Frets GOP Estab Candidates Not Getting Enough Donations

After declaring war on the Tea Party and often showing nothing but contempt for grassroots conservatives that powered Republicans to record gains in the 2010 midterm elections, Karl Rove whined that the GOP may not take back the Senate this year because of the lack of enthusiasm for his establishment-approved candidates.
Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Rove notes that even though Obama’s “job approval numbers are lousy, no Democrat in a competitive Senate race polls regularly above 50%, GOP enthusiasm is high, and independents are trending Republican... each passing day provides evidence as to why a GOP Senate majority is still in doubt.”
After declaring war on conservatives and the Tea Party last year, Rove now realizes that the very voters the establishment trashed are not donating to more moderate and establishment Senate candidates in states like North Carolina and Colorado. Rove says that “Republican candidates and groups must step up” to reduce the fundraising gap with Democrats. He said “Republicans must reach a certain sufficiency of advertising in the next six weeks” to “tip the needle in the GOP’s direction.”
The RINOs can get over themselves. The establishment needs to nominate candidates that can appeal to the party’s base as well as attract centrists. We mock blacks for consistently voting for candidates that don’t concern themselves with the blacks needs so why should conservatives act the same way. It is only by making the GOP earn conservative votes that the GOP will give them respect.
I want the Democrats to lose.
More than that I want the GOP to be a principled opposition. Which it isn’t.
The old saying comes to mind here, you can’t beat something with nothing. What is the party offering for the next two years?
I’m hard pressed to find it.
I have said al along that they would.
The incorrectly used apostrophe in the headline is indeed in the original. Another bit of proof that the GOP-E has no standards.
The GOP WILL WIN THE SENATE! Take that to the bank.
Yeah it’s all our fault because we wont vote for socialist R.
Then make sure they lose. Sitting at home or voting third party guarantees votes for them
Good article and totally accurate. We hate RINOs, but we must hate Dems more.
But wait, Karl Rove and Haley Harbour will certainly win with all the Independents they are attracting, right? They don’t want us bumpkin. They want Chis Christie, Jeb, Romney, and McCain.
Sarah Palin is toxic and is embarrassing and needs to be crushed.
Today Akin needs to be thrown under the bus for good.
The Mississippi rubes just don’t know what’s good for them and we agree with the Left that they are racists.
Gee, what could go wrong?
“Democratic gubernatorial candidate Mary Burke swiped significant sections of her jobs plan from earlier proposals published by three Democratic candidates who ran for governor elsewhere.”

This piece is from another publication in Wisconsin by Daniel Bice—rather well written and mostly free of bias.
http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/news/275701181.html
Here is a clip from Bice’s piece:
“Just hours after controversy erupted, Burke told No Quarter on Friday that she would not apologize for borrowing portions of her plan from other Democrats. She said she stood behind the ideas outlined in her plan.
“This is my plan on how to drive Wisconsin's economy forward,” Burke said.
BuzzFeed reported late Thursday that Burke's plan, called “Invest for Success,” includes nearly verbatim passages from the economic development plans put forward by Delaware Gov. Jack Markell in 2008, Ward Cammack of Tennessee in 2009 and John Gregg of Indiana in 2012. Cammack withdrew from his race, and Gregg was defeated.
An aide to Gov. Scott Walker, Burke's opponent, identified a separate section that were lifted from a White House press release in February, just weeks before Burke released her plan.”
Hopefully, this will see Scott Walker pull away from the wannabe Burke in the the “currently” close race.
Once again, the GOPe and their stooges are trying to scare us into voting for their candidate(s). Sh!t on us for 23 months, then a month before the elections, we hear, “It is bigger than you and your petty Tea Party. The Republic is at risk”.
At this stage, I see no difference between the Republican candidate and the Democrat incumbent in my district.
The Supreme Court nominees are in play?
You mean more liberal activist judges could be nominated and approved if the Repubs don’t control the Senate? Liberal activist judges like the ones Obama already appointed and REPUBLICANS voted for in the past?!?!?!
I guess Mitch McConnell is getting scared he is not going to be the Senate leader. Time to scare the conservatives and blame them if he doesn’t win.
Another “just do as your told” story.
You are lying. Obamacare is Democratcare. It was passed by Democrats alone.
By any scale the worst GOP RINO is better than the most conservative DEM. See all the ratings by Heritage, ACU, etc.
A Republican-controlled Senate is no guarantee that Obama’s judicial picks won’t get through. There’s a GOP contingent that will vote for them.
So be it. And in power the Democrats will remain. Given a choice between a Democrat Lite[ Elite Republican] and real Democrat, the voters choose the real Democrat. Given the choice between a Conservative Republican and a Democrat, the voters choose the Conservative. In response to your comment, so does the Republican Party.
