Republicans really need to start picking off those Senate seats in western red states such as North and South Dakota, Montana, and others here and there. And, Arkansas with two Dem. senators.
It’s really time to field great candidates and start winning the congressional seats in those red states.
Specturd was a Republican??
Who’da guessed?
Agreed. We united around the country to oust Daschle. We have to support Toomey.
I think he was just mad and it showed up in his post. After all the headline does showcase the stupidity of so called Republican "leaders" when they endorse some a**hat like Specter, especially just days before he switches parties.
I think that my congressman, Mark Kirk (R-IL), should switch parties. Hes pro-choice, pro-gun control, pro-gay marriage, pro-spending increases, pro-illegal alien, and anti-Iraq surge. I emailed him, four times, and I asked why hes a Republican. He didnt answer me, so I emailed four of his aides and asked them why hes a Republican. None of them responded.
I completely concur with those feelings.
Our party is an endless bad dream right now.
“I now find my political philosophy more in line with Democrats than Republicans.” Arlen Specter
What an idiot! Specter, you don’t have a political philosophy. You have a socialist agenda, which is and always has been in line with the democrat party.
I knew when President Bush supported you that it was a hugh mistake and when I learned that my Senator John Cornyn was going to do the same I was sick!
You, Susan Collins, John McCain, Olympia Snow and Lindsey Graham are the reasons I would never contribute to the Republican National Committee. I would rather contribute directly to a candidate that I know is grounded in conservative principals! Perish the thought that my conribution would support any of you in any way!
The conservatives of this country should monetarily support and persue through the courts, the unconstitutional elements of our government, while we still have a court and we should make a massive month long march on Washington D.C., demanding a return to sanity and states rights. We should call out our states’ senators and representatives and demand they explain their socialist positions.
Voting is imperative, but it is becoming more difficult to overcome democratic voter fraud. Voter ID legislation in all states is essential.
It is my opinion that the circumstances we now face as a nation are urgent and business as usual will not get the job done. Once the masses start lining up at the “government teat”, our chances of reversing this socialist slide to tyranny will be all but impossible to reverse.
What are the odds that Specter will be a speaker (a la Zell Miller) at the Dem convention in 2012?
Actually, John, if you'd stop your mealy-mouthed equivocations and help purge the quislings from the party, the GOP just might have a shot at becoming a majority.
Very good point!
The only contributions I can see in question would be those for his current campaign. And I'd hazard a guess that most of that came from contributors as comfortable with funding Democrats as Republicans.
Like no one saw this coming.
He is just blowing with the Democrat wind in PA, and he knew he would NOT get the support of the GOP there, in fact I think some Republicans switched parties just so they could vote against him.
BYE BYE BYE BYE BYE.....
I wouldn’t doubt it. He’ll be more than happy to screw his old party over once again.
My point is-——>A true conservative will not win again in PA for as long as the eye can see. Sad but true. Just facing the reality and avoiding living under delusion.
Rush was speculating that sphincter was so far behind his Republican challenger (something like 23 points) that he had to do the ultimate congresscritter thing and sell his soul to keep his seat.
Wow. Doesn’t sound too good. Let us know if he ever lets you know which, if any, GOP principle(s) he DOES support. I am happy with our San Diego GOP congressmen — Issa, Bilbray and Hunter.
