Establishment GOP sends top lawyer to advise Murkowski in Absentee Vote Count (Vanity)
Bloomberg Business Week ^ | August 26, 2010 | no dems

Posted on 08/26/2010 8:27:29 PM PDT by no dems

Just read this from Bloomberg Business Week:

"Senate Republicans sent their top campaign lawyer to advise Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski about the state’s count of absentee ballots as the Libertarian Party considered endorsing her if she loses the party primary."

I am so pissed at the Senate Republicans and MY Senator, John Cornyn, I'm calling his office tomorrow and tell him what a low-life I think he is. Let the people of Alaska choose their candidate and all you friggin' Senate RINO scumbags butt out.

It's things like this that make me think electoral politics don't matter and that the First Republic of the United States is dead.

I think there will be a war. And I think after the war, if we're very lucky, we can establish the Second Republic of the United States.

Us Conservatives are keeping a sharp eye out for any shenanigans by the ruling class Republicans. Any fooling around will not be taken lightly. The advice should be for Murkowski to drop out. Remember Sarah went up against the good old boy Republican network in Alaska and won. This could be pay back time.

While I wouldn’t usually be prepared to call “shenanigans” in a Republican Primary, there are a lot of Dems who are personally invested in making Sarah Palin look like a loser in Alaska. Don’t be surprised if an unholy alliance is formed between Democrats and Senator Murkey in an attempt to steal a primary from Mr. Miller.

Ain’t it the truth! I can’t stand Cornyn. Write him an email and see what you get back in return. I kept getting “form” replies and finally wrote that if all I was going to get were “form” letters don’t bother to reply. Never heard back from him. I’d write in Ross Perot before I’d vote for him.

If you listen to Rush today about these rino’s you’ll realize a third party is the only way to go. If we keep electing people who spit in our faces we deserve the spit. I say let the damned republican party die. The dems will die soon after then we can have some real conservatives running things.

That “unholy alliance” will include the gop. We need to stop feeding this beast.

They are in shock in Florida cause Scott won. Scot supported the Tea Parties. It was the diff. We will not make the mistake the Blacks have made for 60 years.

Well, if it’s the same lawyer who advised Norm Coleman, there’s nothing to worry about.

So true.

Problem is you'll never have "real conservatives running things" -- unless they're elected on the Republican ticket.

Vote conservative in the primary. Vote Republican in the general.

Otherwise, you get moderates. And, then, you get Democrats.

Official Washington, BOTH PARTIES, have no respect for us. They will lie, cheat and steal to stay in power. It is SICKENING!

We’re doing our part in North Alabama in the 5th district. We’re booting out the lying, party jumper Parker Griffith.

Morris “Mo” Brooks is a longtime conservative from Huntsville. He’ll be much like the Freshman of ‘94.

It will if it keeps this up. But it would be better by far to take it over and offer a clear choice between communism and Americanism. The RINOS are an endangered species. So are the ‘Blue Dogs’. A RINO scorned is a dangerous critter.

We are already having a war. American style. You are in the middle of it. The regular people are finally being affected by the humongus monstrosity that the government has become and are beginning to pay attention.

The NRSC primarily exists to serve its own members. Murkowski is a sitting member of the NRSC... It may seem untoward but it shouldn’t be something not expected if she requested assistance from that organization.

Just hope this doesn’t get dragged out too long and give the Dems an opening for a seat they should not have a shot at getting no matter which person is the nominee.

Conservatives are taking arrows from both sides now. That’s just the way I like it! Like the trooper said at Bastogne, “They’ve got us surrounded, the poor bastards!”
