Remember what we have stated about “tremors” and “twitches” that get overlooked by most media?  Yeah, well…

update-1UPDATE 11:30pm EDT Race Called !  Huelskamp Lost

tim huelskamp 5

(((snicker))) A July 15th Poll Release: showed U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp (+9) leading Republican primary challenger Roger Marshall, 47 percent to 38 percent.

However, one of Toxic Ted Cruz’s biggest republican advocates, Tim Huelskamp (Kansas), looks like he is about to lose lost his re-election bid with a primary challenge from Roger Marshall.

Tim Huelskamp is a rabid, VERY RABID, Trump hater.  He was one of the inner network republican house rep #NeverTrump antagonists, and a full-throated Ted Cruz supporter. A really nasty piece of work. – SEE HERE

Representative Huelskamp even advertised and promoted his hatred for republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.  A primary defeat tonight would portend some favorability toward the odds of a Paul Nehlen victory next week (Tuesday August 9th)....

That is Chloe Grace Moretz, I think. Some three-name actress girl. Definitely a lefty.

You’re asking voters who just three months ago were being abused to suddenly forget their abuse.

There is a way to do this. It’s for Cruz to humbly and honestly get on board. But we know he won’t do that.

No, I’m not blaming Cruz if Trump doesn’t win. But his future is dim because of his behavior, and, no, voters don’t forget quickly.

Ima explain this one more time. The neverTrumpers tried to destroy Trump to Hillary’s incalculable advantage. Whenever one of them bites the dust, it helps Trump. It puts the rest on notice.

Marshall is on the record saying he will support Trump as POTUS. Did Huelskamp make a similar pledge?

“He is still the 2nd most conservative senator in the Senate”

Ted would sell out anybody for anything - his vote aiding and abetting the approval of the terrorist-enhancing Iranian “deal” (now served with giant cubes of cash!) is just one case in point.

You fail. It's not surprising.

BTW, we have congressional elections this year. In case you hadn't noticed. Are you voting for the Republicans, or for Pelosi and Schumer? Are you voting to give Trump a cooperative Republican Congress, or sabotage him with a Democrat controlled House and Senate?

Except the difference here is that Marco “Bubbles” Roofio IS a fraud and liar and has been from the time the ink dried on his election certificate. Voting for his primary opponent, Carlos Beruff, IS the right thing to do. But not in the case of Huelskamp’s opponent. Each race and candidate must be reviewed thoroughly here, and every incumbent does not equal “enemy.”

I am going to support Rubio’s opponent in the primary, and I won’t be voting for Rubio in the general.

So you admit that you're supporting Charles Schumer for Senate Majority Leader. Congratulations.

Thanks for that info. I was actually riffing on the degree to which Hillary’s appearance has changed between that pic and the convention. But I had no idea who the actress was/is, so that info was good to get as well.

People acted unhinged on both sides. I deeply deplored that here, but this crap has to stop. For those accusing Cruz of behaving badly (and yes, the convention spectacle was awful, and he should’ve known better), they’re just as guilty of what they accuse him of. It’s time to move on instead of continuing fighting the last battle.

As for the voters, they often do forget, unfortunately.

Marshall has no record to show he will vote Conservatively. Huelskamp does. Promises from RINOs like Marshall are utterly worthless. You ought to know better than fall for them.

So, you prefer the totally impotent congress creatures, as long as they continue to whisper the right sweet nothings in your ear, even though they accomplish absolutely nothing to further the conservative causes?

If Trump is not elected, there will be exactly zero conservative aims implemented under Hillary, just like there were zero conservative aims implemented under Barackary by those sweet-nothing talkers who actually did nothing at all for 8 years now, no matter how much sweet-talking those impotent "conservative-talking" clowns do.

So Huelskamp did NOT pledge to support Trump as POTUS?

I am going to deal with Marco, because my vote helped send him to the senate. he lied to me personally.

Far as Heulskamp goes, this was between him and his voters, and it looks to me like they were not satisfied with him either.

That’s his problem. This fools better realize that when we send them to represent us, they have 2 years or six years before they are going to be held accountable.

Democrats are not held to account, Republicans are.

Seems like they are relying on the we had best vote for them or we will get the other guys crowd to re-elect them in spite of their arrogant, back stabbing, face spitting non accomplishment performance.

I’m not part of that crowd, and I never will be.

Do nothing, get nothing.

You should work on your reading skills. Do you think Marshall works for the Conservative cause ? Huelskamp has. Marshall is an open-borders establishment crony and puppet.

That may be but he has behaved like a spoiled brat since he lost the primary and I supported him in the primary until Trump hit 1237, then it is game over, honor your word. All the credibility he built up with conservatives is being wasted with his petulant behavior.

Quit trying to deny your support for Schumer. He’s evil. Anyone who supports putting him in charge of the Senate is evil. A non-vote for the Republican nominee is the same as a vote for the Democrat. Remember? Hmmm?

Are you accusing Huelskamp of being open borders like Marshall ? Which one will support Trump to secure our borders ? Hint: It won’t be Marshall, but oops, too late. Kansas primary voters voted poorly.
