Our GOP State Committeeman worked out his own analysis of the eight and asked me to post it on my local blog.

Pretty in depth and even though I might not agree with every point, a lot of it makes sense.

However, I feel these 8 must be held accountable and imagine their reelection bids are going to be difficult.

Kirk-Il was touted to run for U.S. senate vs. Dick Durbin.

If that happens Durbin’s in big.

Here is an example of a stellar “moderate” akin to Colon’s
Powell, no guts. Disgraceful coward.

As long as “republicans” like olympia snowe are allowed to vote against the party line with NO penalty then there is no republican party.
Atop giving party money and support for re-election for these maggots. Start speaking out against “party members” that vote for socialism.
Get tough or lose the party and country.

None of these eight fools should ever get past a pubbie primary again. This is the second summer of the second little ice age; nobody should be spending a dime to deal with “global warming(TM)”. There isn’t such a thing.

That should be ten Republicans. Jeff Flake (AZ) - attended his daughter’s beauty pageant in lieu of doing his job and what he was elected for. John Sullivan (OK) - in Betty Ford Clinic learning how to behave responsibly yet he couldn’t do the responsible thing and fly to DC to vote.

There was a tape where Obama says “they will be able to start new coal fired plants but we will bankrupt them”. If Obmama isn't stopped now Zimbabwe will look like an economic power house next to the US

Now we know what the price of being nominated for Secretary of the Army is. John McHugh is a sell-out and should be ashamed of himself.

I’m particularly surprised at Chris Smith from NJ. I don’t remember him ever voting against his party on any other piece of legislation. Why now?

Beats me. Hope 4 of them flip by July 2 (deadline for changing vote).

I heard that Mark Kirk is expected to run against Burris for bonehead’s old senate seat. Maybe Kirk just voted yes so the media would let him win
