IMHO, would’nt matter. In my mind, I keep coming back to what happened to Tom Delay.....

Washington is so jammed with parasites looking for a teat...that ANY organized opposition-IOW any Conservatives-will be run out of town . Period. This, folks, is a far BIGGER problem than just one with the Republican leadership.
And now I see that the House Republican leadership thinks that McCain will be their savior come this November due to the independent voters they think McCain will bring in.
They are clueless as to how p.owed the base is.
I think we need to let people tie the democrats to their failures on their own.
We need to have a positive message of how we learned our lesson and are going to do right by the American people.
1994. We won by providing a positive vision for the future.
Meanwhile, the Democrats, because they already have the generic advantage since people are upset at Republicans, merely have to lie about the Republican candidate, and pretend they are the real conservatives.
That’s how they are winning these elections — by saying they are the common-sense conservatives in the race, while the Republican is just some evil right-wing hack.
They learned it from the 2006 George Allen race — they can throw almost any charge against Republicans, and it will stick. In the Davis race, they just told everybody he was a racist who wanted to honor the founder of the KKK.
How’s that working? Three straight losses, all in congressional districts President Bush carried easily in 2004.
Won't work for Juan McCain against Obama either, come November.
Conservatives aren't falling for the ooooh-but-the-other-guy's-a-liberal scare tactics, any longer. That only works -- ONLY works! -- when the Republicans are smart enough (or desperate enough) to run a genuine conservative, in contrast.
JimRob said it best, several months back: "You kicked the conservatives to the curb and nominated your RINO, now all you gotta do is get him elected."
The Republocrats ran three rinos.....
The Demopublicans ran three conservative, anti-tax guys and if course they won.
RNC RINO’s coming home to roost.
House Republicans did not get the message, or got the wrong message in 2006. Now it appears they are starting to get the message (better late than never), but will it be the right message? I have my doubts.
IMO, Republicans are losing all over the place because when they were in charge, they stunk up the Congress so badly that the smell still lingers. Frankly, the ‘Pubbies fouled their own nest and wrecked the conservative name such that they may never recover.
Despite the fact that the Democrat-led Congress has been inept and useless (even worse than the ‘Pubbies), the memory of Republican budget-busting pork and pandering is impossible to overcome. And those ‘Pubbies still remaining in Congress have done nothing noteworthy to reverse the impression most Americans have of them or to try to regain their trust.
They deserve to have their heads handed to them, but America deserves better than what it will get as a result.
Just stopping by to announce that Fred T. will be on Fox & Friends tomorrow morning at 7:45. ;)
So.....they used Obama instead of standing up for....uh...gee..no one in the GOP has a definition of what the party is standing for these days....they still cannot accept the fact that their insistence on going left is a deal killer.
