Look, pal. We don’t have a smooth talking Rubio or Reagan in every state. Life would be easy if we did. We got constitutional conservative Sharron Angle through the primaries based on her conservative message. There was no better conservative candidate available. Period!!

Where on this thread did I say the GOP should have nominated someone other than Angle? I didn't. But just because I agree with a candidate's viewpoints, it doesn't mean I won't note when they do not run a good campaign.

Now whine all you want but we just didn’t get enough Republican voters up to overcome Reid’s fraud machine.

It is a mistake to blame the loss on fraud when there clearly were operational problems with the Angle campaign. Just as the GOTV effort for Toomey coasted at the end when the Dems were going full speed, and it almost cost them - an Adcock staffer went to the SE PA GOP center Sunday and the place was almost empty - within the critical 72 hour window before the election.

If we want to win next time, we need to learn from mistakes, not pretend they didn't happen.

If the guy who won is a Democrat it is always necessary to attribute the loss to vote fraud ~ (1) Because it is probably true and (2) Because it brands the Democrats.

No one here should defend the Democrats.
