But let me ask you this: are we supposed to choose whoever Tea Party affiliates pick? Didn't the Tea Party endorse Scott Brown? I know many complain of drinking the koolaid, but are we all supposed to drink the Tea Party koolaid too? I thought individual choice was still what makes conservatives principled? If McCain is so terrible (and he is), why hasn't the Tea Party endorsed Hayworth?
If you're looking for a perfect movement, the Tea Party isn't it.
Now, as for your criteria, seems to me you keep adding conditions. RINOs shouldn't be endorsed EVER. Doesn't matter whether its primary or election. Sarah was wrong for this and for McCain.
The bit about the criterion had to do only with rintense’s list - and trying to compare apples to apples, nothing else.
Rintense, you’re right, nothing’s perfect. We’re hoping to find some consistency in Palin though and endorsing RINOs over their Conservative competition does not seem that. Mebbe she just needs to stay out of races like that, or if Fiorina wins the primary, then endorse.
Perfection, no. Constistency, logic and follow through - hoping for that.
