If you want to primary RINOs that’s fine with me. But put your resources and effort behind a credible, qualified conservative candidate, not just anybody with a pulse. Otherwise you risk handing the opposition an easy win and hurting the overall brand. O’Donnell’s goofiness probably made the PA senate race closer than it had to be.

Agree. I was really worried about the O’Donnell effect here in PA.

I think if DE had had a more viable conservative candidate, Toomey would have won by a much bigger margin.

But I thank God that Pat won anyway.

Was she the best available? How often do we have that luxury? She won the primary, she deserved the unqualified support of the party. Period.

The people of Del are better off for her candidacy. Hopefully they're a little wiser concerning certain provisions in the constitution as well as motives and nature of liberals and RINOs.

Well, the Democrats chose to make anti Christine their primary message. They won what they won with that message and lost what they lost.

We won some, we lost some. I think most Republicans would say that the results were good ones.

“Made it closer than it had to be” Right. So? He still won.
If the Democrats didn’t have Christine to talk about, they would’ve had to come up with something else. That other thing might’ve worked in PA. What they did talk about did not work. We got the PA seat.
