I'm not in or from Maine, but I've heard/read it described as low hanging fruit, i.e. so conservative that it's ripe for the taking like West Virginia. A primary fight over Collins or Snowe is worth the risk in the general election, IMHO.
Now I would like to see the Tea Party Movement and social conservatives fight on the same side in primary elections, with the exception of the war on some drugs crowd who can't fathom how that feeds the war on guns.
I'd like to see the Tea Party Movement stay focused on fiscal issues, limited gov't and the Constitution for general elections. If I had to add anything for general elections, it would be rat voter fraud and national security incompetence. Socially conservative nominees must be able to defend their positions with logic, clarity and no hesitation.
Maybe you confuse what you would like to see with what you claim is the best that can happen for the marxist state of Massachusetts? Of course if you are really happy to just worry about the checkbook while the principles that premise our founding and society get flushed down the toilet that is your choice.
Massachusetts may prove exceptionally resistant to "getting with the program" and drag their feet; however, that does not mean the rest of the country waits for them -they should be left behind to swim in the cesspool they want to create. IF they continue to left idiots and continue to promote socialism and debt then let them suffer the consequence. IF Massachusetts, California, Illinois, and on and on want to take a dive off the cliff and bankrupt themselves -let them! In fact, help them do it!
They WILL get with the program one way or another. Resistance is FUTILE!
If I had to add anything for general elections, it would be rat voter fraud and national security incompetence.Phony candidates illegally fielded by 'Rats have to be a priority in the primaries, and we need to be as nasty as necessary to eliminate that. Anyone from the Demwits connected to phony candidates running as Pubbies need to see serious prison time, or failing that, well, anyway...
