Welcome to the Senate Mr. Miller.
My recommendation to you is to look to DeMint for guidance in that chamber. Don’t forget who put you there. And never ever allow yourself to feel comfortable in that swamp.

YOWSA!! How exciting is this? Congrats to all in the Tea Party movement who, against all odds, against every pollster have handed us and our new Senator from Alaska Joe Miller this terrific victory!
What’s the next battle? And then on to Nov. and seeing Reid ousted, etc., etc., etc.!
Wow - what a night!

Here's the next battle.
September 14. Delaware Republican Primary.
41 year old conservative Christine O'Donnell vs
72 year old RINO Mike Castle
We want Christine all the way.
Obligatory Christine pic.
Ahhh! Been holding my breath all night waiting for this! Yipee!

“Or one RINO at a time. Im ready for Cornyn to join the ranks of primary losers. He backtracked today on his end the birthright citizenship stance. He started out okay but has become a squish just like KBH. Im sure it kills him to see Miller win. Get used to it pal, there are some new sheriffs in town.”
DeMint’s stock is rising by the day! I have to say, we are seeing a Conservative realignment in our time. Now’s the time to hold people to their principles. That’s what it’s ALL about.
What’s the next battle? Onto November?

Im giving Murk the benefit of the doubt here. ... After all, she isnt a Democrat.Let's see if she endorses Miller when asked by the press.

The vote are still going to be counted and she could still “Concede”. The election observers need to be on there toes still. There is just a small chance that this could be a strategy by Lisa’s team to cause certain election observers to be inattentive while tampering goes on. I know it sounds way out there, but we are dealing with people who can be very creative at cheating.

We need to pull together and get Christi elected. She needs money and she can win. Her situation is very much similar to Miller's. Conservatives let's roll!
To: Revel
Agreed - A bit of additional good news on that front:
The latest count posted just a few minutes ago resulted in another increase in Joe’s lead to 1,630.

Yes it is very similar. Castle is a worse RINO than Murkowski. Murkowski hasn’t been acting like Snowe and Collins. Castle very possibly would.
If Castle wins the primary he’s likely to win the general.
Do we want years of people saying “what is wrong with the people of Delaware?” like they do about Maine?
To: SeattleBruce
The Division of Elections just updated the website 06:27:48 PM). Miller gained another 161 votes and his lead jumped from 1,469 to 1,630, close to the 1,668 votes he had at the close of voting last Tuesday.
- Miller, Joe REP 52988 50.78%
- Murkowski, Lisa REP 51358 49.22%

Castle is a disaster waiting to happen, but for those outside Delaware, with so many good conservatives trying to get elected but needing $ and help, I don't think just taking him down is the best use of time when we're not going to win that seat.
And O'Donnell is no Mike Lee or Joe Miller.
To: truthfreedom
Republican unity, especially with a Miller win, is the way to go. Attacking Murk at this point - unless she really does try to steal the election - is counter productive. Well said...
IT'S MILLER TIME!!!

“My recommendation to you is to look to DeMint for guidance in that chamber.”
I put Jeff Sessions and Inhofe into the DeMint category too. Sessions fought tooth and nail against Sotomayor and Kagan. You can throw Coburn in there too since he came out and lambasted Gingrich.

I’m generally pragmatic in circumstances like these. However, Castle is so dismal, I’d view his election as a loss. If Christine is our candidate, we have a shot at winning. If Castle is elected, we lose either way.
