LOL!
As for el Rushbo.... even HE isn’t on the 100+ bandwagon yet.
Dick Morris and a few other JUST hit MAYBE 80 this week.
I am still waiting to see WHO in the big leagues will come up to my prediction.
And WHEN....
I know a lot of young Libs who were NUTS for Obams. Now they are like WHOA! I am glad to meet a fellow cynic. This could be a total wipeout even as the Republicans try to lose.
Uh......Sarah endorsed Joe Miller and Nikki Haley, two people that were in no way in shape to win their races when she endorsed them....Nikki was polling in fourth place to be exact. You could also throw in Carly Fiorna in that at the least Sarah legitimize Carly to the conservatives in CA who was behind in the polls to that liberal republican Campbell? in the primary.
The RNC has been feeding us scraps for years and treating us like chumps.
But they need to see the Verizon Commerical, either that or get their hearing checked because this will be #3 where they get their @$$ handed to them...
Hey Establishment RNC, can you hear me now?
You would argue O’Donnell could or will win and that Castle will barely lose? I don’t agree with you.
I think the GOP is supporting Castle because he’s 1) of the establishment 2) liberal and 2) represents a liberal state. They may well not want to win enough to be held accountable for not pursuing a conservative agenda but I don’t for a secon buy that is there reasoning in this state race. I even agree with them he’d win easily. I can understand this pick. It’s just I’m not in the business of wanting Republicans elected anymore just for the sake of numbers. We tried that a few years ago. It failed. This time around I want to limit the number of turncoats McConnell has to fall back on and if that means they lose this seat so be it. Castle is not worth the compromise. A tenuous Senate majority according to his whims is not worth it. I’m not sure I think O’DOnnell is a great candidate but I’m confident she isn;’t Castle. If the GOP would rather run a platform on anybody but Democrat’s this year tey can’t whine if we’re supporting an “anybody by Liberal Republican”
:-)
(I shoulda known you wouldn’t have needed a ping on this one!)
Rush has been doing a pretty good job regarding the explanation. Basically, the Pub establishment is more interesting in getting their chairmanships and power back rather than saving this country.
I agree with you, but for a completely different reason:
A grizzly is a SMALL bear compared to Alaskan bears.
The polar bear is much larger, and the Kodiak is larger still.
The Alaskan ‘brown’ bear is equal to a grizzly.
Let's not insult Sarah with the grizzly moniker - She's a KODIAK!

I think you have mistaken my posts.
So let me make it clear.
I think in 2010, a DEAD COW running on a platform of Sour Milk will BEAT most any Democrat even in VERY Safe Democratic strongholds.
Thus, the issue of “electability” is MOOT. Irrelevant. Not germane to the discussion.
Ergo, we should pick, at this time, THE most RADICAL of a candidate we can get.. because we NEED some truly CRAZY extremists in their to BREAK this good ol’ boy system.
Castle can and will win the general (if nominated), if he DIED the week before the election.
SO would Christine. So would a dead COW.
This is the ANYONE BUT A DEMOOCRAT year.
The people, the masses, 25% who are going to vote... do NOT know that Castle is to the LEFT of some actual Democrats running this cycle. They see only the news and do not trust the Dems. These same pople voted OUT The GOP 4 years ago and Put in Obama. They are ignorant and fickle.
But they would vote for ANY “R” this time out.
So I support the one FURTHEST AWAY from the Establishment.
And I truly DESPISE RINOs like Castle and Murky in AK.
And Juan McAmnasty. Hell John Bonehead too. Screw them all.
And on that I hope we agree!
this NOvember we will truly see how “relevent” the media’s opinion is.

remember to vote in the primary and if you are a conservative democrat, you do have a voice... a freeper voice...

I have a story too.... there is this lady I know from Church. She is older. And totally liberal. Hanging behind her desk on the file cabinet are her DNC credentials for the National Convention as a Delegate for Hillary Clinton 2008.
She is a LONG time poll working type. Radical. Feed the poor with YOUR tax money you sinner. That type.
She HATES Pelosi and Obama. And I mean hates.
We talk politics all the time, because we both won’t give it a rest and I am always one upping her and so she looks for a problem to “get me” with.
She told me a few weeks ago, that she is SICK of what the Dems are doing. Of course from her perspective it mean they are acting JUST LIKE BUSH. Whom she hates even more.
But, she and many others she tells me, are quietly going to send a message: They are all going to vote STRAIGHT TICKET GOP for the first time in their entire lives.
Just this once. Just to send a message to the Dems that they EXPECT to not be taken for granted.
I fully... FULLY expect to see some SAFE Dems Lose on Nov 2nd and cry HOOOOOOWWWW???? HOW oh HOW??
And then they want Hillary to RUN and BEAT Sarah Palin.
I am not joking. The rank and file WORKERS in the Dem Party are having their OWN invisible Tea Party.
Yeah, I can.
The Republican Party is not what you imagine them to be. They are a component part of the governing coalition that has been in place since 1933.
They can do anything, as long as they don't support any candidates who might threaten the coalition.
This they will never do - and Castle, whatever he calls himself, is a coalition man first and foremost.
Re #25:
You’re correct on all of those. But I still see people on FR who claim she only endorses obvious winners.
