SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- Warning that tea party "mischief" may be aiding Democrats this election season, defeated Utah Republican U.S. Sen. Bob Bennett says that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid likely will keep his seat and that the GOP may not win hotly contested Senate races in Colorado or Kentucky either.

In an interview in his home state with The Associated Press, Bennett also suggested that Republicans may not have a clear plan to govern even if they do take control of the Senate this year.

“The only plan RINO’s ever had was to suck up to Democrats.”

Right, he’s a fine one to talk about ‘plans’ now - huh? What an IDIOT. And an idiot that doesn’t know when to keep his mouth shut - that’s the worst kind - a blathering idiot.

“note the new stealth strategy of the old guard media to ignore reporting on Rat candidate”

The old media - propagandist traitors. Old habits, and old media die hard.

“All RINOs do exactly this kind of crap when they lose.
That’s why its best that we don’t elect them in the first place.”

Adding insult to injury is what they do best.

Do you see the pattern here?

Bennett, Specter, Crist - old over the hill or egomaniac politicians that think it is their god-given right to remain in office until Armagedden. When the public finally wakes up and kicks their @$$e$ out, all semblance of loyalty goes out the window and they either switch parties or take pot shots. Ask yourself why it’s necessary for old codgers like KKK Byrdman to stay in office until his 90’s. Similarities apply to SCOTUS (but hopefully Kennedy will stick around until Kenya is out of office).

The Founding Fathers didn’t envision selfish shyster career politicians; that’s why term limits were not in the Constitution. It was time long ago.

Conservatives need to wake up. All these ousted GOP politicians are only saying what they thought all along. And the rest of the Republican establishment is of the exact same mind. It’s a farce.

The TEA Party uprising moved the Republican party right. Bennett and other RINO’s got left out in the cold. It’s his own fault but as with most pols, he’s far too narcissistic to understand that.

Have Dem voters ever voted out one of their entrenched fixtures though? I mean, just voted one out because they were dissatisfied, not because of a scandal or anything like that.

Have they ever just gotten rid of one?

Wow, with an outlook like that is it any wonder he lost his election? What was *his* campaign like—”Don’t vote for me—I’m a loser”...?

Regardless, PelosLIE will be stripped of her Speaker’s gavel.

She'll get it back. Maybe in 2012.

Never underestimate idiots in large numbers.

Bennett’s “Healthy Americans Act” helped pave the way for Obamacare. Bennett could be even more dangerous after the elections if the rats gather a lame duck session.
