Defeated GOP primary opponents refuse to endorse Rep. DeLay

The Hill ^ | Wednesday March 15, 2006 | By Peter Savodnik and Andrew Barr

The base is indeed fractured over issues of integrity. DeLay will be very lucky to get 50% in the general election, even though that might be enough to win a multi-candidate race.

I got an interactive recorded phone call from DeLay last night. DeLay asked questions about national security. When I answered them, the recording said "Good, I agree with you." Same with questions about tax policy and right-to-life issues. I suppose I went against DeLay when I didn't favor increased spending for NASA. But the call never asked the question that will be the deciding factor in this race: "Do you demand that your elected officials display the highest standards of ethics, integrity and character?"

If the Repubs are to hold the majority, they're going to need to get behind other Repubs. The rest of the year before November may get even rougher...

Why should they care in TX-22? If by some chance Delay loses to Lampson, another Republican will easily win it back in 2008. I'm sure many of them are hoping they'll have that chance and will do what they can to makei t happen.

Bunch of opportunist turds.
Thought they'd kick THE MAN when he's down.
Hell with em.

...and I say, Screw 'em!

[FreePaul]

Sorry specimens. Just shows what kind of people oppose DeLay. Makes me more certain than ever that he will win handily.

[Joe Boucher]

Shiva I agree.

Not meaning disrespect but Shiva is a Hebrew term I've heard many times. What is it's translation? I forgot.

[harpu]

You are one ignorant, arrogant fool.

Whine like the POS you are but you're factless, and the voters will hand Lampson's ass to him just like they did to that dildo you were championing - Campbell!

[right right]

It's a sorry SOB that would let a DemonRat win, even over Satan.

I support Tom DeLay every bit as strong as I do the President! DeLay is a guy who has worked his ass off for the party and was not afraid to get down in the pits and get dirty if he had to. When push comes to shove half of our flaky party deserts him. That's an outrage, and we should think twice about it. We owe a number of seats in Texas to his hard work as well. How soon we forget. He is by far one of the best house leaders we have had or probably will ever have as well.

IMO, they are small minded, like many we get here in California that enable Democrats with their BS, third party, or non-votes.

This is more of the same out of the leftist media. First, it was Delay is going to lose the primary big time because media polls show him trailing. After he won pretty big, now it is "Republicans are divided and Delay is gonna lose the election."

When politicans are behind in a race and the media assures them they are winning big and then they lose, it makes coping with the loss even more difficult. That is how the old media torments Rinos and Democrats.

[deport]

Give it up. Your guy lost.

You are probably correct.... Although this not only reflects upon the poster but more so upon the opponents that ran against DeLay. It speaks volumes of their character, imo. Either you support the GOP or you don't which it appears they don't...

Anyone that could support Sanchez for Gov. isn't got the interest of the Texas GOP at his/hers/its heart.

[Godebert]

Go away........loser.

[JohnnyZ]

Dude, you're STILL attacking DeLay?

What a fruitcake ...

[MediaAnalyst]

By joining the MSM in their post-primary quest to defeat Delay and replace him with a Dem, you are getting dangerously close to being a troll here on FR.

I lived in N. Hollywood for years but had to leave. Couldn't stand so damn many folks everywhere.
Beautiful state though.
