It was setting up for anti-Palin RINO’s to say, “Palin can’t win in the general election.”

They wanted to check the surge of the true conservatives who are going to take over the Republican Party over the next few years.

I agree; just like they sunk some others. They don’t want to give up their gravy train.

We need to target those rinos for defeat in the next election and ignore the balding oaf rove.Demint is the man of the hour and Palin is the woman.

Yes, they threw Christine under the bus big-time. Now I don’t care what anyone says about Christine, that she ran twice before and lost or was too conservative - the fact of the matter is that she won the primary election fair and square - that means you either get behind her regardless or you don’t run your mouth off about her behind her back to the liberal news media.

Christine sunk herself.

Don't be like Obama who blames everyone else for his problems. Own up and admit that she didn't have what it takes to be a Senator.

Good for jim!

Still, considering how extremely well conservatives and Republicans both did this election, a week of recriminations is ridiculous!

I think that since Delaware is such a blue state , the voters just ignored her extensive resume.

So you think I wrote this WaPo article or that I’m Senator Jim DeMint? Seriously?

Just what does it take to be a Sinator like Box a rocks and Murray? Oh yeah, be a liberal in a liberal state. I would rather lose w/a Conservative than win w/a Lib.

Pray for America

Heck, a few years ago, that Carnahan woman from Missouri was elected senator just because her husband died during the campaign.

DeMint sees the way the party is moving and has decided that the party elite are going the way of the Whigs.

“Own up and admit that she didn’t have what it takes to be a Senator.”
By whose standards?
The 75 percent that pass legislation they haven’t read and don’t understand? The ones that have never held a job outside of public office, the ones that cheat on their wives, taxes or just plain act like they are royalty? Which?
