Why don’t we “repay” them the favor by repealing the 17th Amendment (Make them truely accountable to the states!).

I am hopeful that this it true. If it is, the immigration issue is probably the cause.

The game hasn’t even been played yet, if the Republicans can’t defeat passage of the immigration bill conservatives will only go out and vote for those who opposed it, they will let the others gag on their vote.

CF, this article could have been written at any point in 2007, immigration issue or not. Of course most of the vulnerable House seats are held by Democrats. There are at least 36 House Democrats (many of them in their first term) representing districts in which Kerry got 45% or below; no Republicans hold House seats in which President Bush got below 46%. However, we need to (i) recruit strong challengers and (ii) focus on our conservative values in order to take back the House.

The GOP is in for a heck of a surprise in 2008 if the amnesty bill goes through.

I don't have any inside info, just the sense of seething fury I see and hear, but I wonder if the traitorous bastards will have to wait for 2008 for their surprise.

The House may be in play if the GOP good guys can stop the Immigration bill, but I fear the Senate will stay RAT.

Republicans are a pretty orderly group. My guess is they will remain angry-just waiting for their opportunity to strike back those that have insulted them and hurt the country. The elitist believe we are stupid with a limited attention span; we will forget...they will be sorry!
