So I’m a troll now because you’re the one who thinks it’s only going to take 51 seats to get an Obamacare repeal through the Senate? It’s going to take 60. There are 20 democrat seats in play in 2012 with 10 Republican. We will almost certainly lose Scott Brown, whether or not you electoral kamikazes go RINO hunting in blue states again. So, let me hear some more that you’d rather have Coons and Giannoulis. Let me hear how because Norton or Lowden aren’t Jim DeMint, we might as well have Bennet or Reid. Come on - let me see you say it.

You are incorrect.

I never said it would take 51 seats to get an Obamacare repeal through the Senate; although it *might* happen if Reid and Coats force through the redefinition (elimination of) the filibuster during the lame-duck session, and then the GOP takes the Senate in 2012.

I'd prefer it not happen that way, for obvious reasons.

Instead, we can kill it via de-funding in the House, until we re-take the Senate and get President GOP (hopefully Palin) in 2012.

As far as electoral kamikazes? It's fun to see how the RINOs cheerfully blame Delaware on the conservatives, and in particular Palin -- though she didn't endorse COD until a day or so before the election; and yet keep mum over the millions of dollars wasted on so-called "self-funded" and "rational, sensible" high-profile GOP candidates for governor and Senator in CA; and the turmoil in AK caused by the existing RINO crew encouraging Murkowski by not stripping her of leadership roles once she lost the primary.

It's funny -- the RINOs demand that conservatives hold their nose and vote for a RINO in the election, but never return the favor.

And the rumors that Bachus is being considered for a key appointment in the House makes me see red.

FUKR. FUMR. FUDF. FUNG.

...oh, and Krauthammer too.
