I say to the Republican leadership, “Can you hear us now?”

Did you see the turnout numbers? In Virginia the Dims were almost double our numbers. In Maryland it’s 3 to 1!

When you listen to Obama and then to McCain, is there ay doubt they are going to clean our clocks? My friends, it’s over.

Repubs are crossing party lines to keep the Clintons out of the white house.
I was tempted but regained my senses at the poll.

Those numbers are worth dirt during a primary.

Dem primary numbers were at real historic lows even next to Republican turnout when John Francois ran in 2000 versus W. Yet he garnered 54 million votes in the general election (2nd most votes for anyone for president in US history, Yes even more than Reagan got over Mondale in 1984). Your premise is highly flawed at best and is a reflection of your own sophmorish thinking. In general primaries are not good indicators of the general election in November that counts when you elect the real McCoy.

Unfortunately, the RINOs and Washington Pubbies see low turnout at Republican primaries as a sign that there are fewer Republicans...they think they have to run to the Left.

They never think about the facts that we have had a bunch of RINO candidates rammed down our throats and nobody wants to go vote for them.

The Republican establishment is clueless. The spend their lives surrounded by liberals and drink the kool-aid.

Yep, it’s over. I hope the RINO know-better elites finally “get it.” But I doubt they will.

Get used to saying President Obama.
