Her approval is 49% ish last time I looked, not the magic 50% heck it maybe even be lower.
If Michigan swings towards change like it did in 2010 ( it was a bloodbath for Dem's @ the State Level) She is deep doo doo...
I got to see her 2 winters in a row, at a kick off a Christmas Event, Outdoors in Detroit and she was getting boo's and no I didn't, I was just trying to keep warm. Again in "Detwaa", she was getting bood....
Again, my gut tells me she is beatable....
.
IMO Tea Partiers should have concentrated on helping their people win House primaries this election instead.
We only needed 40 or less more to control the House and block the passage of legislation by Dem/RINO majorities.
But good luck with the path chosen. I hope it works out.
Be of good cheer my friend, repubs will hold the house where only a simple majority is needed. We need the senate and we need the magic 60 so that the communist in the White House will be completely powerless.
Press on.....to the fight.....!
That’s encouraging, lets hope so!
We always need to fight hard though, what with voter fraud, which is condoned by the White House, and not fought against by the GOP-e.
Why not go for BOTH Senate and House? No need to concede either to the Dems. And if interest in conservatives is generated by a Senate primary, then that would likely carry over to the conservative House candidate in the same election.
There are other tea party groups out there, maybe some of them can get out there working to get more conservative house members.
The TPX operates on a limited budget dependent only on contributions from interested parties.
Individuals of course can do a lot to get Conservative Tea Party type candidates elected, so consider doing some of it yourselves if you aren't already.
Thanks for posting, Syncro. T.E.A.
Isn’t she about term-limited out by now? It seem like for ever since she beat Spence Abraham.
