The establishment declares victory.
If the Establishment declared victory, the question is over what?
They’re gone. They split their own base not once, not twice, but Oh going on 10 times now. Four or five just in the last week.
What electoral coalition do you cobble together at this point?
People put up with a pair of retro throwbacks like Ditch and Boner because they thought that on the cultural crap they would at least be mainstream.
They are nowhere to be found on any of this. Must be cashing checks at an ATM in Virginia, far from the spotlights.
The Republican party is over, folks. The people who put Roberts The Savior in as Chief Justice and are still trying to throw Cruz and every Conservative Representative off the bus got nothin. They dont HAVE any supporters other then some lobbyists.
Vote for them? Why? So they can pull a Lucy Van Pelt gig again?
It’s over. Watching that worn out cadaver McConnell pee in his pants because some mulatto kid from Jakarta took his phone call is the end of the road. Its not just strange, its surreal.
The Tea Party died because the government party used state power to terrorize it. That’s a fact. The hatchets who did it are being protected. What does that tell you?
It was the last authentic popular group within the Republican party. There is no Boner-McConnell wing. Whoever might have constituted that group is largely dying off now as they were the 50s gang. Call it the nursing home group.
Other then that, they have no appeal. None.
