Big tea party, big money, is not much into helping quality candidates. Tea Party Patriots and the Madison Project are spending huge sums on fundraising, salaries and consultants, while just putting a tiny fractions into practical political operations.

So how much did their groups spend to help Brat win? >>> Zero, Kinda like "Planned Parent-hood", un-mentioned prime motivators.

I’m convinced Paul Ryan’s appointed job is to take out the Conservative voice that has the GOP so scared and worried. They can’t seem to take out Trump, so they are going to make us Conservatives have no effect on the election. I don’t know how they are going to silence us out here.. but they’re going to try real hard.
Good luck on that one!

They still think if they can just get rid of the 200 (they don’t know the huge number we have who are fed up) loud and persistent persons who are pumping Trump’s numbers up, then Jeb will be back in and in the lead. Every time I hear someone on the news, say “Trump’s numbers will go down and Jeb will be back in the race”... NOPE... no matter what happens to Trump’s numbers, we don’t want Jeb or any GOP’s choice. They’ve fooled us for the last time... never again!

Ryan picked a Chamber of Commerce guy to run his staff. So the Chamber is obviously who picked him for this gig.

The Chamber is also investing $100 million to defeat tea party candidates in the next election.

They should vote as a group for Daniel Webster and make Ryan (1) admit his posturing has been b.s. all along - he wants the job and (2) he’s not a conservative but rather an open borders poseur.

If things don’t take a turn in the congress and if we don’t get a president we want, I think conservatives should and will abandon the Republican Party.

He gave the members critical assurances on a number of significant issues.

I do not wish to criticize Dave Bratt, he is one of the good guys, but what are these "critical assurances?"

No, no, no to the GOP-e’s Boner clone, Paul Ryno.
Anyone who can lose a debate to Slow Joe Biden should hang up his spurs, not aspire to Bonehead’s half-empty can of ManTan.

The war between America’s ruling class and it’s middle class continues. No to all Rynos!

Brat is what funding individual candidates is all about. Viva the REAL Tea Party!

PLEASE CALL THE CAPITOL MONDAY: 202-224-3121

Mr. Jefferson wrote that rule in the House allowing a member to call for the ouster of the Speaker TO PREVENT THE SPEAKER FROM BECOMING A DICTATOR. Why did Ryan DEMAND exemption from that rule??  photo RYAN copy TEXTjpg_zpsq3gsn4d1.jpg
