Didn't Bush support Sununu over Smith in NH?

That's because Smith left the GOP and when he came back he bargained to get a Committee Chairmanship and knocked Sen Inhofe off the seat? Bush sure did support Sununu -- didn't do any good but Smith deserved what he got IMHO!

Then he goes to FL and tries to run for Senator there. Some of the nasty things he had to say while not a Republican came back to haunt him!

Yes, because Smith would have lost to Shaheen in the general, and as much as I disapprove of Sununu's vote on this issue, I'd rather have him than Shaheen in the Senate any day of the week. To be honest, his vote on this surprised me.

Savage is the dumbest savage in the world.

For nearly 70 years this has beena divided nation of about 35 percent liberals, 35 percent conservatives and the remaining 30 percent split between Rinos and Dinos.

If the Republicans were stupid enough to drive all the RINOs out of the party, then they would just become DINOs. And the senate would be 65 Democrats and 35 Republicans and we would always elect Liberal presidents.

There are about 16 conservative states and 16 liberal states. And there are about 18 states that are up for grabs.

Those states nearly always elect some Combination of RINOs and DINOs to the senate. It is no accident in my home state fo Ohio that we have two RINO Senators and a RINO governor.

The other option is 2 DINO Senators and a DINO Governor. NO real conservative or real liberal can carry Ohio.

If the Republicans kept the 35 conservative senators they now have, and grew until they had 25 RINOs in the Senate, the conservatives could rule the Senate with an Iron hand. They would have 60 votes. That would prevent filibusters.

Yes I hear you.. there will always be 3 or 4 RINOS that go off the reservation. But the Right could pick up a 3 or 4 DINOs to replace the wavering RINOs on major votes.

Fools like Savage always want a pure party that achieves success. That can't happen as long as the conservatives only represent 35 percent of the voters.

Savage is so stupid he things 35 percent of the voters can produce 51 percent of the votes. Savage obviously flunked math.

The key to changing the nation is to grow the 35 percent conservative to over 50 percent conservative. If that were to happen, then no RINOs or DINOs would get elected. We ould have 51 or 52 conservative senators.

The solution is persuading over 50 percent of the voters to be conservative.. not kick RINOs out of the party.

SAVAGE was not born Stupid... He had to take lessons to be this dumb.
