“Steam Running out of the Tea Part Movement?”
Hardly. It’s Illi-f***ing-nois! There are just some places a true conservative can’t win. Illinois is one of them.
Massachusetts is better than Illinois?
We won in Massachussets with a canidate running against Obamacare, against Cap and Trade, against gay marriage, and supported restrictions on abortion. Illinois is middle America and the Democrats have been self flagellating themselves with corruption and dirty politics and we couldn’t even get one outsider conservative across the finish line in the Senate or Governor’s race? That is a problem. If we are going to see real change we are going to need better coordination. Maybe Illinois is just nuts. I still remember how Steve Saurberg was treated when he was running against Durbin and he was no liberal. I swear I’m beginning to think conservatives in Illinois are nuts because the Rasmussen poll showed a big chunk going for Kirk and it looks like that is exactly what happenned tonight. Hardly a vote for change or liberty.
“There are just some places a true conservative can’t win. Illinois is one of them.”
That’s not true. A real conservative can win local races and occasionally a race for the US House of Representatives. But a real conservative will not win the governorship or either of the US Senate seats.
