We've got a way to go yet, but we are making progress. People like Rove and Cornyn have to be removed from having any responsibility for picking our candidates. They're the ones that handpicked people like Crist and Castle to be the supported candidates. Once they picked them, they didn't just step aside and tell them they were on their own in the primary. Rove and Cornyn et al did as much they could to fend off conservative challengers.
Even if O'Donnell loses in the general election, I think the party is stronger for not having a liberal like Castle having the clout of being a sitting senator, forcing the party to the left. If she wins (which I think she will), she pushes things that much further in the right direction. She's going to have a lot more loyalty to people like Palin than to the leadership in the party that tried to kill her political career.
You betcha! I love the way you think...I am the same.
I can only hope that the rest of America finally understands the problems that we are causing with this administration.
