Republican Main Street Partnership (George Soros is funding the Moderates)

Update 1145am EST. Many of you are asking for the list of the anti-drilling Republicans. The group who succeeded in pressuring the GOP to cave in calls itself the "Republican Main Street Partnership." They're holding a press conference at 130pm EST in Washington, D.C. to bray about their "victory." Here's some more info:

Main Street Leaders who helped broker the deal to eliminate ANWR from budget cuts:

Rep. Charlie Bass (R-NH), Rep. Mark Kirk (R-IL), Rep. Jim Walsh (R-NY), Rep. Joe Schwarz (R-MI), RMSP Executive Director Sarah Chamberlain Resnic

Here's the complete list of "Main Street" members in Congress.

1pm EST. Guess who is funding the "Main Street" moderates? George Soros and friends. (Hat tip: David Martosko)

That's good. I'm glad Mike Rogers isn't on that list. Joe Schwarz has a primary in 06 against Tim Walberg. Upton and Ehlers is safe however for some reason. Dave Camp's on the list, but is actually strongly conservative.

You guys have primaries against sitting congressmen? I envy you. That never happens in Ohio, unless there is an open seat.

It's rare, but there are at least two in 06. Schwarz is a first termed who won with 28% of the vote in the first primary race in 04. He's PO'ed gunowners and pro-lifers, as well as club for growth, so this one was seen a mile away. Tim Walberg (finished 3rd) is taking a second shot at Schwarz.

The other primary is in my district. Mike Rogers who is no RINO is being primaried by Patrick Flynn. Mike's good people, and I'll be voting for him again.

Even the Dem's in Delaware can't field a candidate to dump him. He never gets anything but token opposition.

Unfortunately that is the history of nearly all Delaware politics. Biden and Carper are anomolies, upstarts defeating much loved and well respected incumbents.

Great. This means someday our Senate delegation will be way feyer than the Dems, not that there's anything wrong with that.

I agree. It is time to go jihad on the RINOs

Now how many of those 527's funded with Soros money ended up in the Mainstream Republicans coffers? Money has a sneaky way of ending where you want it to, just ask DeLay! ;)

Curt is a good national security guy, even if he is a social lib from the Philly area.

"Why are embryonic stem cells important? "

I don't think they are. I've never seen any evidence that research has produced any benefit. Adult stem cells have produced results but nothing from embryonic.

What exactly is Soros' interest in this? I don't think he's just being a public-spirited citizen. I know he doesn't think Bush is Hitler, because he is familiar enough with the real Hitler to know the difference.
