Hmmm... methinks Herr Krauthammer has been hammered sufficiently by Tea Party reality and is now trying to get in its good graces.

Not really interested in anything Krauthammer has to say.

His actions/words concerning O’Donnell and Governor Palin tell me he is a Ruling Class Country Club Republican.

His disdain for Pro-life issues sealed the deal for me.

I don’t trust him a bit.

Christine O'Donnell's nomination in Delaware may cost the Republicans an otherwise safe seat

What good is a "safe" seat if the one occupying it acts like a dim? Is it better to have a RINO than a dim? I'm not sure. With a RINO, you never know which way they'll go on an issue. Some, like the two up in Maine, are more reliable to the dims than many "official" dims.

a spontaneous and quite anarchic movement with no recognized leadership

. . .

What’s funny is that young progressives view themselves this way while their “rebellion” is managed and very establishment.

Charles Krauthammer is nothing but a selectively myopic PR Rep/flack
and kept-trained monkey, for the Obama White House
and misogynyst Mitt (working for Obama,RomneyCARE, and TARP).

Go Mitt. Go Mitt. Go Mitt.”

Looks like CK is trying to suck up to conservatives after his ill considered remarks about Christine ODonnell.

No matter. I thought this guy was a beltway elitist with a conservative schtick before that, and I think he’s a beltway elitist with a conservative schtick now. Every now and then his true colors come shining through.

As a mere unwashed peasant, I’m far too coarse to appreciate his enlightened words. So I guess I’ll just have put him on the list as a pundit to be ignored.

The Perot comparison is a decent warning, but we aren't trying to re-elect a dull, NE rino running against the young and very charismatic new, fresh faced Bill Clinton.

This is a much different world here in the obamanation than in '92 and one would think it would be easy for the republicans, but if they try to run another rino in 2012 all bets are off.

The real challenge has always been to either first save the GOP and use it to save the Republic or abandon the GOP if it can't be salvaged and let the TEA party resistance form into something new and use that organization to challenge the progressives and restore the Constitutional Republic.

It will be fun to see Christine O'Don win. I think she can if we support her. (At least she's a self-proclaimed, now defrocked witch ... unlike the Witch running the house who hasn't come out of the closet yet!). Charles is usually dead on except for the "senate control" comment (causing loss of control of the Senate) and this one:

First, this is so at variance with reality that it's hard to believe even liberals believe it. The largest Tea Party event yet was the recent Glenn Beck rally on the Mall.

Nope, it was BIG, but not as big as 9/12 in 2009. Go back and look at the pictures ... 1,700,000 people! How soon they forget. (This not to take away from what Beck did, this just to add perspective and accuracy).

We tend to think of Charlie as infallible ... but there are moments, aren't there?

“...cost George H.W. Bush reelection, ending 12 years of Republican rule.”

Charles, Charles....we Americans are not “ruled” by anyone. Remember “government of the people”?
But it is nice to see the Establishment trying to catch the TEA Party train as it roars downhill to Nov. 2.

Well Chuck you missed one point. 30% of the Tea Party are Dems.

One thing we've figured out, for sure, is how totally overrated is Krauthammer as an analyst and pundit.

Watching his snobbery and condescension over the past couple of years, his cliched rhapsodizing over the "eloquent and intelligent" Obama has led me to discount everything he says. His disdain for Beck, his embarrassment in the early days of the Townhalls and tea parties (scolding us for yelling)...but the icing on the cake of my contempt was his remarks about Christine O'Donnell, and his sneering challenge to Palin and Demint to pull off her election in November. Krauthammer, since you think Jon Stewart is so funny, STFU.

How did he ever get where he is, anyway? Family connections, maybe?

Krauthammer still doesn't get it.

The Tea Party could have become Perot '92, an anti-government movement that spurned the Republicans, went third-party and cost George H.W. Bush reelection, ending 12 years of Republican rule.

GW Bush and the GOP cost the republicans the election. Bush clearly didn't want to win, you could see it in his lack of energy, in they way he said things. If the GOP had delivered what the people wanted they wouldn't have looked to Perot for it. And for many, a vote for Perot was an attempt to put a shot across the bow of the GOP...but they were oblivious.

Had the Tea Party gone that route, it would have drained the Republican Party of its most mobilized supporters and deprived Republicans of the sweeping victory that awaits them on Nov. 2.

Wrong again. Now obviously, a good number of tea partiers are republicans, but I, for one, am not, nor have I ever been a republican. It is erroneous to assume that the tea party consists of just republicans and if they went elsewhere the GOP was being drained. The GOP has no "right" to my vote or my energy...they need to EARN it. And with the series of Scazofazza, Murkowski and other RINO mistakes by the GOP they're on thin ice. The GOP continues to count on votes on the basis that they're the lesser evil in the room...that doesn't float any longer. Fortunately, there is the tea party, which had the decision to go independent or try to change the GOP into something that'll be good for the nation. I'm not interested in being co-opted or incorporated into the GOP...if they present viable candidates (and they are in some areas thanks to the tea party) then I'll vote their way. But the GOP better not take my vote for granted.

Charles Krauthammer is slowly moving into Alzheimer.

Bill & Hillary Clinton promised H Ross Perot the IT contract to run
Hillary-Care, if he would run on a third party ticket and triangulate
the electorate.

The RINO media machine still does not get it. The Tea Party is supporting the Republicans because they are the best chance for stopping the 0 Dems. They are supporting the Republic, they are not supporting Republicanism. They can just as easily turn on Kruathammer wing of the GOP as they have turned on the 0 Democrats if they do not follow thur on their Pledge

Every time they demonize the Tea Party they alienate more voters who are quietly supportive of the Tea Party motives. In 1972 Richard Nixon based his campaign on an appeal to "The Great Silent Majority." The liberals snorted in derision as their spoiled little wretches rampaged in the streets, but Nixon won a huge landslide over the pathetic McGovernites.

So let them howl and screech. They aren't scaring anyone, as the public waits quietly for November and a chance to set things back to normal in America

IMHO, the best outcome would be a major victory in the house for the Repubs and a 49 or 50 seats in the Senate.....

Let the Rats control the Senate for another two years....

That way the rage will keep growing and the Rinos will be exposed and VP Bite Me can break any ties.
