Do the two of you mind not gloating until we beat the crap out of the democrats in November ?
I do not care for the single issue voters on FR either but all that happened tonite is Utah republicans chose their candidate.
No celebrations until we see Pelosi and Reid resume their jobs as Minority Leaders in January.
Which is why it's all the more important to expose those who will do anything to unseat conservative Congressmen in the primaries.
Sorry but my gloating is reserved for that snake Tancredo. I hope he is made to suffer and be relegated to errand boy in the house.
Celebrate tonight.
Get to work tomorrow. I'm with you on making sure those two do not get anything resembling a job promotion.
Thank you. I just really don't understand all the enmity...
Tancredo won in that he forced a runoff with a VERY popular, VERY conservative (on every other issue) Republican in a VERY conservative state. That seems like quite a win to me.
Cannon won because he won, and will win in November, and the GOP will hold the seat.
So here you have Cannon, who is conservative on every other issue, holding; and in SD you have Bilbray, who is liberal on almost every other issue, winning because of immigration. Seems like a wash to me.
It's not a "single issue." It's a CRITICAL issue that sooner or later must be dealt with. Thank God for the House holding the line on this hideous abomination from the Senate---but one "open borders" guy winning and one "fence" guy losing in a primary is hardly a referendum on anything.
What the anti-Tancredo people should take from this is this:
TWO YEARS AGO THIS WOULDN'T EVEN HAVE BEEN ON THE RADAR.
