For all practical purposes, the Senate SHOULD be more conservative than the House. There are far more Red states than Blue states, and you would think that this would translate to an advantage in that there are 2 Senators per state as opposed to the more population-based model in the House.

It never seems to work out that way, though.

Social conservatives have to realize that liberal Republicans like Specter do everything they can to annihilate the agenda of social conservatives. The whole notion of the "happy big tent" is a myth! Let your enemy into your house, your enemy will try to kill you.

Well he sounds great and true. But even if he were Arlen Spector I'd be sick if the son of Jimmy Carter beat him.

You are insane. He got almost 50% of the popular votes in 1976! That's hardly "receiving a single popular vote."

By the way, the Constitution provides for someone becoming president without "receiving a singular popular vote." If you hate the Constitution that's your right, but don't expect me to applaud you.

Yes, you are right the "big tent" is history. Now moderate and conservative Republicans are to be exterminated.

Yeah...Bryan would likely be another Zell Miller type nowadays. Too bad he retired and Dingy Harry stayed.
