Ariana Huffington has nothing to do with this. Without question, hers is a unique situation.

The beautiful and so-desirable Ms Huffington was (reasonably I suppose) traumatized and p*ssed off to learn her erstwhile very eligible “conservative Republican” husband was *gay* - just 8 years after she married him!!

I mean holy carp. How truly destructive, it must be to learn such a thing.

That’s the sort of thing, which fundamentally changes people. In a single moment. Turns their world upside down.

If she had not turned with a vengeance on everything her “husband” had previously represented to her - with every bit of her soul, she would probably have sunk into a swamp of self-doubt and destructive anger.

IMHO if her husband hadn’t done that to her - she still would be on our side.

Perhaps if enough brave, strong willed GOP women join this new movement - she will again!

Stranger things have happened.

Ms Huffington, come back over. Just because your husband was gay, doesn’t mean you have to ally yourself with ... gays.

Wouldn’t it make more sense, to stand now for yourself? And for what is right. For real marriages, and real goodness? It would seem, your “husband” betrayed you. Most of us can relate to that. More perhaps than you know.

Let him help the gays over on the left. Seriously Ms. Huffington. Think about what you are doing. You joined, the wrong side.

Come over to the side of what is right!

Again. :)

Bullshit!!!

Krauthammer is downright arrogant all of the time, and almost always wrong on every issue. He is an elitist fool.

I read the article, and it is little more than a hatchet job. Regardless, it is better to be rid of Castle NOW in the Primaries than to put up with another RINO in the senate. He was enough of a problem when he was one of 435, he will be 10x’s the problem when he is 1 of 100. Particularly since he will join with the likes of the Maine Bobbsy twins and the other Jackasses in the RINO wing of the Senate.

This is exactly what primaries are for. A good showing or victory in the primaries for O’Donnel will put the RINOS on notice and make it easier to make them tow the line.

Senate be damned, we don't need it to stop Obama, we need a big lead in the House, where the budget is built, and enough to stop the Big O’s shenanigans in the Senate. That is 41 strong determined right wingers who can eliminate any and all Democrat programs.

The foregone conclusion that Castle is a "shoe-in" in the general is flawed. After the offensive smear campaign run against O'Donnell, I can't imagine Tea Party supporters rushing to the polls to support Castle in the General Election, meaning, he would have to rely upon large support from Democrat voters.

That's what I been trying to tell the Castle boot-lickers. No conservative is going to support Castle after him and the state GOP smearing O'Donnell. What Castle should have done was been cordial to O'Donnell, and even accepted her offier for a debate.

Then can someone please define for me what being a Republican makes me politically as an individual?

in the context of a Liberal Republican is better than no Republican. <-- I think we agree that this is completely false. Look at McCain, Snow, Graham etc.

As an individual you believe that you are endowed with inalienable rights. That government should recognize that you have them and protect them. You should be allowed the fruits of your labor and all that other stuff is just tyranny. (I wish I could be more articulate but it's past my bedtime)

That’s not how the left operates.

Even when they’re pretending, to be Republicans.

You give her WAY too much credit. She had to know all along, and was just an ambitious, hypocritical biatch. When hubby didn’t work out for her goal of power, she went the other way, as it was the way the wind was blowing.

Nothing in the Weekly Standard is ever truthful or real world.

It is a magazine that fears Christ and Christians deeply, and despises the fact that this nation was founded on the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

WS isn’t even a good butt wipe.

Krauthammer calling Palin a lightweight and dismissing her was destructive, too, but we survived it.

Bingo, the mayhem starts in the House. That is where the Republicans need to shift the balance of power and find new, conservative, aggressive leadership.

Hopefully, Sen DeMint can get traction as the new Republican leader in the house regardless of whether that be as the majority or minority.

What if she didn’t know? Consider that possibility for a moment.

I mean, people do the darnest things. Even ... especially those who you are fondest of.

I think he tore her heart out. I mean, bad as it gets, broken heart. Knock the air right out of you moment sort of thing.

She didn’t know, IMHO.

And she’s still rebelling. On one level good for her for doing so.

But it’s been 10 years now. She can get over it. :)

I would go further and say it would be better if the Republicans came up one or two seats short in the Senate. That would eliminate the ability to blame his problems on the Congress, He will still have to show deference to the Dem run Senate. This would, however, be unimportant as everything in the Senate relies on 60 votes to go forward. If the Republicans can stifle the worst of the Obama agenda with 41 strong votes all the better.

We have had ineffectual Senate majorities of 1 - 3 seats for over a decade, it is almost better to be a strong majority than a weak minority when it comes to the Senate.

What’s the matter with you?

That was actually hilarious and right on the money.

Krautheimer is becoming a zombie sycophant.

He nailed Demint as well BUT NOT UNTIL AFTER Brent pointed out that DeMint had followed Palin’s lead and endorsed O'Donnell, then he was stuck.

He always bashes Palin, but then, he is very much an elitist. Palin is common riffraff to him.

Unfortunately, quite alot.

It has detached him from real world motivations and expectations. He has to live in literal fear for his very life every minute of every day. A failed bettery could end his life at any time. Something like that cannot be disregarded, no matter how hard he may try.
