Rove is right. He predicted how O'Donnell would flop and hinted that it could cost the GPO additional senate seats.... In my personal opinion, he was thinking about Alaska, Nevada, Colorado, Washington, etc. All of these should have been captured by the tea party. Personally, I think O'Donnell cost real conservatives senate seats. Say what you will... but Rove was right. Don't hate the messenger.
Conservatives didn’t want to be stuck with Castle and they are the ones who vote in the primaries. If a candidate can’t even get a majority of their own party to vote for him, he doesn’t deserve anything.
But then RINOs like democrat fraud rules anyway. Just ask Princess Lisa.
Ah, it was just your statement affirming Rove’s statement. It might be right, but you are agreeing with Rove without looking at his actions prior to the election.
Heck, I could have said that after all the condemnation from the GOP...not exactly a science. That made you suspect, I suppose... Don’t do that again... :^)
Every poll I saw during the primary had Castle beating the Democrat, and O’Donnell losing.
Cite the poll.
Keep it up and you might be accurately found to be a troll...
No use in muddying the waters fellow...
That’s ok. I wasn’t trying to be difficult, I just heard election night that polls said Castle would have lost too.
Lincoln Chaffee for President in 2012!
No problem. Verification is always critical especially concerning posts on the internet.
Nothing more need be said... You’re on your own.
What is your point RC? A narrow Republican majority in the Senate would’ve given effective control to RINOs. They could’ve held any legislation hostage until conservatives gave them what they wanted. Is this what you wanted?
I see in your future a good deal of hatred from the Rabid Rove Raptors
It would have given control to Republicans period. Plus, Reps being in charge would have given incentive to the more moderate Dems and Independents to come our way if not outright change parties.
Is that you Karl?
No, as I have said, I’m not at all happy with Rove’s handling of the Delaware Senate race even though I agreed with his prediction about the outcome of that race.
Not about to try to change your mind - you’re of the GOP mindset, all about winning, nothing about policy.
Bedtime...
That analysis is incorrect sir. I’ve seen the Republicans go through this time after time after time. A narrow Republican majority gives all the power to RINOs that will be able to hold bills hostage until conservatives cave into them. At least I know Democrats are my enemies. I’d rather have that than a RINO that pretends to be my friend. In addition having a Democrat instead of a squishy Republican allows conservatives to draw sharp contrasts between philosophies which can only help in the long run.
BTW Castle isn’t even a 50%er!!!!!
