Vanity: The Dems know how important the Senate is....do we?

I was browsing around to find who was running against my (darn it) Senator Casey (D), and found this site. I truly believe that winning the Senate may be more important than winning the Presidency. We need to win this fight!

I agree. My senator (Debbie Stabenow) has got to be put out to pasture.

I agree as well. The WH makes ZERO difference if our nominee is Romney.

TEA Partiers are layaing in wait for the 2012 election. They’re not out demonstrating and protesting like the Liberals normally do. We call it a silent attack. Go get ‘em!

There will be no conservative president, that election is lost. Although the 2010 elections have demonstrated how little effect elections can have, there is still a chance of getting some conservatives into the House and Senate. Although I am not so sanguine that it will even have a positive effect, it is probably worth the effort.

The Senate has always been important because they control commerce. You know interstate/intrastate. They are the ones who began the lying, cheating and stealing.

Pete Hoekstra is probably going to be the nominee to run against her. He has some RINO tendencies but he’s well to the right of guys like McCain which makes him a very acceptable choice.

Jim DeMint has been working for years to get REAL conservaties elected to the Senate, Marco Rubio, Rand Paul, Rod Johnson and others. Here is our answer to the democrats:

I do not know who this “we” is but the republican party does not care to win the Senate and it appears that they do not want to win the White House either.

Pete Hoekstra...Yeah, I've heard that name, wasn't he a Congressman? I think I've heard him interviewed on talk shows.

They only say it is important but it is secondary to SCOTUS which is the real goal to to control the country for several decades. 2 maybe three justices will retire and so will need to be replaced in the term of the next president.

That is the real prize on the line with this election. If the dems control SCOTUS they will control the tone of our country for decades, possibly for ever.

This election is about SCOTUS as it will determine if the dems control our country for 50 years and more. Everyone needs to make their votes about SCOTUS and forget the face of who our presidential contender is.... that really DOES NOT MATTER top the dems. SCOTUS DOES THOUGH!!!!

Two justices on SCOTUS will trump a whole senate. Senators an only effect our country for 4 years, SCOTUS justices are for LIFE.. and their decisions for decades! So vote smart for SCOTUS and forget the rest of the fluff and smoke.

Sorry I was wrong, as a senator sits for 6 years. A supreme court justice is for LIFE.
Vote accordingly.

If by some change Mittens gets elected, his SCOTUS picks will be no different then the Bamster’s.

Mittens will do what the old man Gov. Sununu tells him to do, and we all remember the last Sununu pick that GHW Bush pushed through ... Justice Suter ... a leftist if there every was one.

Last time the republicans captured the senate they gave half the power back to the democrats then jumpin jim gave the rest back.. GOP should rename themselves the GLP. Grand looser party.

You can’t fix stupid

Hummm. So are you just looking for a reason to NOT vote for ANY other than Obama?

Of note for all to see is that you did NOT mention Allito (?) or Roberts...

Or did you so like sodamajor or kegal, obama's appointments? Is that it?

Before there is even a nominee, you give reasons why you will not vote for any Republican..... meaning Obama would get to put on 2 or 3 in the next term.

Your concern there fore is NOT for our country. So sad.
