HearMe: “It’s not enough to filibuster, don’t you want to abolish Obama Care, for one example.”

Of course, but I think it’s pretty clear that’s not going to happen with a bunch of moderates. Let’s watch what Mike Castle does from here out. Certainly he’ll put party loyalty first and endorse O’Donnell, right? Do you honestly believe he’s a solid vote for repealing ObamaCare? Laughable!

I gotta tell you. I’m absolutely amazed by the FReepers who turn a blind eye to history. It’s not like we haven’t had this electability before ideology stuff before. We’ve been there. Done that. It DOES NOT WORK.

The issue for both Krauthammer and myself is not the individuals here. It is the body.

If Castle was a certain win and would make give the Republicans the Senate, a sure thing was preferable to what occurred. It stops Obama which is today the only crucial step to take.

It may play out that this is such a Republican landslide that this seat is not even important. Or Republicans will disapoint and it is not important.

And maybe even, I hope, O’Donnell can pull it off and she turns the Senate

But to celebrate now when the end result could be terrible is plain foolish.

Conservatism shouldn’t mean rigidly that results in suicide. Not in this year and certainly not when going up against Obama in 2012.
