“we need Republican control of the senate”

Yeah, fool me once ... We’ve heard that “Just help us gain the Congress, and watch our smoke!” from the right wing of Uniparty.
We don’t need nevertrumpers like Rubio, McCain, Graham and a passel of others.

The out-of-power `rats are frisky even now, bringing issues up over-and-over knowing they can count on, for example, Rubio, anxious for another general legislative amnesty for illegals that Obama will quickly sign.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/11/02/marco-rubio-jorge-ramos-will-keep-obamas-first-executive-amnesty-place-legislative-amnesty-enacted/

Trump’s going to have a bully pulpit and will be able to veto anything he doesn’t like, including “comprehensive immigration reform” or gun-grabbing. All we need is a solid 1/3 of a Congress *that we can count on* to prevent overrides.
And the RINOs that survive will be chastised. Toss out the Rubios, McCains and their Graham mini-me’s.

Stupidity, or insanity, is re-electing the same “moderate” conservatives over-and-over and expecting different results.

the possibility of the conservative senate of which you dream is incredibly improbable. your misunderstanding is enormous

stupidity is thinking there will ever be a conservative senate to meet your expectations. bitchin moanin and refusing to accept reality is a losing proposition.

even with 100% Republican senate vote which is the norm, there is not the raw political power to prevail

Pointing out that Senate Republicans, elected by conservatives in 2014, aren't doing their jobs is stupid?

the possibility of the conservative senate of which you dream is incredibly improbable. your misunderstanding is enormous

So let's shut up and continue to settle for compromise, bipartisanship, and Gangs of 8s or 12s?

and just in case you haven’t been paying attention, four antigun bills just went doe t0 defeat in the senate

Those bills would have been defeated even if Reid controlled the Senate. Your buddy Collins still brought up a "compromise" bill anyway.

And if that fails, Marco can get a job as a pool boy at Kennebunkport

Rubio should refuse to take his endorsement. JEB behaved disgracefully during GOP primary; clearly forgot Reagan’s 11th commandment.

I am voting for Marco in Florida. You think I’m voting for Grayson? No way! We have no choice. He doesn’t show up for work anyway. Lol.
