He should be using both of them to pull his head out of his butt.
Possibly because they wanted to drive momentum as close to the election as possible. So this was designed more as a pusher engine to get Republicans over the top, not as the main locomotive itself.
OR ... It wasn’t designed to help candidates win, but rather act as a post-election rallying point once the majority was won. The GOP could claim a mandate by pointing to having run on it, even though it didnt make a real difference.
Trying to nationalize a midterm election, particularly one with so much happening concurrantly and there isn’t one singular overriding issue is a tricky thing.
Principles? What principles??
“Rove to GOP Candidates: Be Bold and Clear About Principles”
“Then when elected we can go back to being democrat lites and dumping on Conservatives. We don’t need no stinkin principles.”
It is because the Republican Party has abandoned the true conservative principles that were championed by Ronald Reagan that in January of 2012, after 37 years of conservative political activism, I walked away from the party. Became an independent. When real conservatives run on real conservative principles, they win and win big. But when RINO's run on an apparent superficial presentation of conservatism, it's 100% phony and everybody knows that. I just can't understand how Republicans can run the same losing paradigm every time; get their butts handed to them over and over and stay on that course? It's the definition of insanity.
I have not read these principles. Any mention of Common Core and Amnesty/Open-Borders?
