google ^ | 9/14/10 | The Associated Press (AP)

Tea party-backed candidate Christine O'Donnell upended nine-term Rep. Mike Castle in Delaware's Republican Senate primary on Tuesday. Castle was the latest establishment-backed candidate to stumble as the grass-roots movement displayed its political strength. Tea partiers can claim success in some eight Republican Senate contests, a handful of GOP governors' races and numerous House races. A snapshot of where the tea party movement made a mark in 2010:

Uf there is one clear message to be gleaned from the election results it is this:

The anti establishment, anti incumbency and anti Washington as usual crowds have been winning big in this primary season.

The republican party RINOs better wake up and take note or they too will be left behind just like the commie dems.

“And we have not yet begun to fight!”

They forgot Carl Paladino over Rick Lazio in New York (GOP Governor nomination) Is this a good thing? Yes I ask. I do not know New York politics much.

Message to GOP: A Rino is a Whig with no hair! And will suffer the same fate!

Carl Paladino is a little like Chris Christie in New Jersey. He's blunt. He's not politically correct. He is for cutting taxes and spending and cutting the bureaucracy in Albany. I don't know if he can beat Mario's little boy, but he has at least as much chance as Rick Lazio would have had. The advantage to Paladino as the nominee is that he will make Andrew Cuomo squirm as the campaign unfolds. Lazio is in the ruling class, Paladino is not. My only advice is, stock up on the popcorn.

I’m thinking a lot of New Yorkers are upset with dems from Governor Patterson right on down to the rest (apparently except for the Harlem blacks who are backing the corrupt Rangel yet again) and all of them are sick and tired of the status quo, higher taxes and fees they are paying through the nose and all that on top of the mosque at ground xero as well.

New Yorkers are very very angry and as a former resident of that state I can tell you that you never ever want to upset a New Yorker when they are angry. The same thing with a Texan.

And we have to win ALL these races in November against the combined forces of Democrats and RINOs.

The good news is that the RINOs have let their masks slip, and now the whole country can see them for the stealth communists they have always been.

From 9/12/2009....

White House officials on Friday professed to know nothing of the planned demonstrations (911 march). White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs queried reporters about the planners and their issues. “I don’t know who the group is,” he said with a shrug.

Liar and assclown.
