Call Bannon’s bluff: The only way he’ll beat GOP incumbents is if they fold

The Senate ‘Leadership’ PAC spent millions to keep Judge Moore off the ticket against the Democrat...and lost that battle.

...now they won’t spend a dime to help Judge Moore win AGAINST THE DEMOCRAT. If the Republican leaders feel keeping conservatives out of Congress is a higher priority than actually winning seats against Democrats, then IT IS OVER for them. We owe them NOTHING.

Podhoretz is the poster boy for the GOPe that always seems to come up two votes short of keeping their campaign promises.

So it's Podhoretz vs Bannon and the American people.

I know where my money is.

Feinstein will be 85 when the votes are cast.

In fairness I seem to remember a Republican that served until they were 100 years old and we thought it was great.

Strom Thurmand

Strom Thurmond Governor of South Carolina, United States Senator James Strom Thurmond (December 5, 1902 – June 26, 2003) was an American politician who served for 48 years as a United States Senator from South Carolina. He ran for president in 1948 as the States Rights Democratic Party candidate, receiving 2.4% of the popular vote and 39 electoral votes. Thurmond represented South Carolina in the United States Senate from 1954 until 2003, at first as a Democrat and, after 1964, as a Republican. Wikipedia

The voters will decide the outcome.

The courts and voting machines will likely have more effect on this election than the voters.

Conventional wisdom suggests the GOP and its supporters should work to build on these majorities rather than expend unnecessary energy (and money) on a civil war, state by state and district by district.

"Conventional wisdom" is wrong. That's what got them into this mess. Hopefully, this coming primary will Rotor-Rooter a whole bucnh that's clogging the pipeline.

Should be an easy one since politicians have “paper thin” morals, mental faculties ! Folding paper is easy.....LOL

I don’t think it was great. It’s the halls of Congress, not a seniors retirement home. I find it shameful that these people stay to prop up their crooked politics for a 1/2 century.

Let fresh, energetic, blood in the government. It was never meant to limp along at an octogenarian pace.
