The way to deal with Republicans who have actively worked against our goals is to defeat them in Primary elections. We do not even have to defeat them all, only enough of them to send the message that we will indeed target them if they work against our agenda.Today, Rush talked about the Herndon Virginia primaries that kicked out all the people responsible for okaying the Day Laborer Shelter.
This news spread to Pennsylvania where certain republicans were trashed in their primaries.
Rush says that this is the type of message that is reaching the politicians up for reelection.
So....it seems to be working.

The Pennsylvania republicans were kicked out for suggestinga raise for themselves. Had nothing to do with day laborers.

The PA primary had nothing whatsoever to do with illegal immigration. It had to do with local elected officials voting themselves a middle of the night 16 to 54% pay raise, without a debate. Democrats who voted for the pay raise were also voted out or saw the writing on the wall and didn't run.
The Virginia situation is directly related to illegal immigration but this primary is not.
