Then what Bush/Hastert/Lott, Part II?
Certainly!
‘Pubs are a bunch of spine-less observers, not movers and shakers...for the most part...wouldn’t you agree?
The only fly in the ointment is GOP Chair Steele.
He is a loser.
Going for the jugular? Naw, that would be out of character for the pubbies.
Mitch McConnell is such a wimp. He should be replaced with DeMint.
I never understand why every Mission Statement by every organization in the World does not read simply “Total Global Domination”...
It works in politics, business, religion... You name it!
We may fall short, but that is no reason not to keep our goal in mind. We should challenge the opposition at every opportunity. Idiots like Barbara Boxer should never get a free pass... ever!
the party faithful should go full-steam
It won’t happen with Steele at the helm. Contribute directly to the politician of your choice and bypass the RINO crooks.
The RNC did not trumpet the money they sent to Scott Brown, which was a very astute move. If Chairman Steele was interested in self-promotion, he would have had those checks delivered by a brass band on live TV.
We have had rather too much of self-promoting morons in over their heads (cough OBAMA cough).
Here is what I would like to hear from potential candidates:
“I am not a politician, and I would not enjoy holding office. However, I am just as smart as most of the folks in Washington. I like my priorities better than theirs, and I think I could do a good job, with good people to guide me. If you don’t like me in two years (or whatever), then, heck, send me back home and find someone else. I can always go back to what I was doing, like the guys in the Washington/Jefferson era.”
I feel like the guy who sits down in a restaurant, tastes the food, and says, “Phew, even I could do better than this.”
In the same vein, this is why I did not lean too hard during the pre-election on the “lack of experience” criticism of Obama. It’s the QUALITY of experience that matters most, not the QUANTITY.
Shortcomings in the latter can be overcome by the wise selection of advisors. Shortcomings in ideology cannot. This is why I reject those that criticize Palin. Sure, she does not talk like the elite in Washington, with sophisticated phrases. She does not carry herself politically like a Romney. In fact, she talks pretty much like I would.
"My job as head of the NRSC is to guide the GOP back to a majority in the Senate," he added. "I can't do that without Arlen Specter. With him as our nominee, I can target our campaign resources toward beating Democrats and growing the Senate Republican Conference."
Since by his own admission, he can't guide the Senate back to a majority without Specter, he should have surrendered his chairmanship to somebody who can. I guess this time around the NRSC just might back Pat Toomey. Many of us little people could have told them that was the right answer in 2004, but we weren't worth listening to.
Steele shouldn't have mentioned it AT ALL. Claiming to have been discrete (while volunteering you sent the money) represented the end of being discrete.
Other than the rinos trumpeting the tune of "no more idiotic health care bill"; you won't hear a single dem/lib/prog even mentioning it....including the islamic muslim-in-chief.
In fact...it's now all about jobs (re: clown speech in Ohio this morning).
And while I heartily agree with the results, I most emphatically disagree with the "why".
These dem/lib/progs will do anything, say anything, be anything just to get re-elected....fortunately, in this case, they are moving in the direction conservatives like....so far.
But watch them...this will be their ongoing strategy to lessen the possible severe impact of the upcoming Nov. elections. By November, any self-respecting conservative who brings up "health care" will be met with, "who, ME???" by the dem/lib/prog.
Watch...but don't give up. Replace these clowns in November.
And just as an aside....have you ever seen a larger bunch of dem/lib/progs running scared while still holding a 59-41 majority in the senate??? It is to laugh!
Also sent the same message to rep. kind...he's fired as well.
I agree, I don’t want the Republicans to save Obama the way they saved Clinton.
You forgot the Illinois bought and sold seat occupied by Burris
Because if they did have a backbone and stones they'd be shouting like Scott Brown did about OBAMA's WAR on Seniors and our Retired Military
“I’d rather have the RATS with a paper-thin majority after the 2010 midterms — Pelosi with a 220-215 margin in the House and Durbin (new majority leader) with a 52-48 or 51-49 majority in the Senate. Let them have the majority for public consumption only — and zero operational control. That way, Obama cannot run against the GOP Congress in 2012; and we can take it all in 2012 - presidency and both chambers of Congress.”
Well, I’d have to agree!!!
