“I can’t help but remember Jeff Flake, Marco Rubio and Pat Toomey were all Tea Party darlings.”

There are no guarantees in life, I have learned.

“Six years ago he was a Democrat.”

What kind of Democrat was he?

Bob Conley ran for Senate as a “Ron Paul Democrat” against Lindsay Graham and almost beat him. IIRC Graham said that Conley was too conservative for SC.

Missouri has a deep bench so hopefully the good candidate will rise to the top.

The best candidate I should say. Also, without getting into a mudwrestling match.

He was obnoxious on the program he had briefly on “Real America’s Voice.” He was a bore, also, constantly flogging his Navy Seal background and digging up former military cronies as his equally boring guests. And he has a really annoying habit of talking with his teeth bared and clenched. He’s loud and disruptive on Bannon’s program now that his own show “Actionable Intelligence” (what a joke) has apparently been canceled.

If he cheated on his wife he should not be a candidate. Trump should back away from him and find someone else.

Please save your babble-thumping for the church ladies’ pancake breakfast.

We don’t need a squeaky clean, morally superior, but weak in the knees senator.

We need a senator that has the balls to go toe-to-toe with the filthy democRats.

The non-Republican kind.

Great! We need a Senator that will keep his balls in his pants around beautiful young ladies and not be open to blackmailing by his lack of discretion.

He wasn’t handed the job (a la Lil’ Lisa Murkowski in Alaska). I don’t have a problem with families involved in politics, so long as they’re doing a good job. I’ve heard no negative stories about Jay Ashcroft.

Yes. In all fairness, he’s done a good job for Missouri in the current position he’s in (Secretary of State). He’s cleaned up our voter rolls pretty well and enforces election law. But I’m with you, sick of the ‘royal lineage’ crap.
