"I hope John Cornyn and his cronies are evaluating whether Lisa Murkowski is worth destroying the party over. Whether this scintilatingly mediocre mind is worth full nuclear war within the party. Whether this desperate-for-validation insecure personality type is worth the loss of the upcoming elections. And if her primary win is important enough to Cornyn to guarantee his own primary defeat.
"I hope they're considering that, because yes, it is that serious. This is not about a man. It's not about Miller or Murkowski. This is about the principle that the people are sovereign-- are they or aren't they?"
Anybody with one eye and half sense knows that Miller is one more vote for DeMint as Senate Majority Leader and one less for McConnell. New constitutional conservative Senators means new leadership and fruit basket turnover on the Senate committees.
Cornyn's a weasel. He'll back down. But McConnell?
This is the big fight for the soul of the Pubbies.
Stuffed Suits against the Base.
The suits won the McCain round. This one....not so easy.
Palin is building her team. She's not gonna let a key player go down, and it's good that she's got DeMint backing her. He's had a good run too in the last few days.
Reeeeaalll interesting.
