There aren’t enough conservatives to run roughshod over the rest of the R caucus though (yet).
So I don’t expect any really big victories for us.
Yeah, as you say, we’ll see.
The fear of being primaried is very real in RINOs in conservative, and even ‘moderate’ districts. The Party doesn’t help them in primaries and if they tap their contributors heavily in the primary they risk not having funds to beat off the Dems- who will attack even harder. So it’s best to compromise with conservatives (and raise more money).
This NYTimes article is just scripting for the Sunday news shows to bash the increased House conservative bloc as childish obstructionists, instead of representatives of the will of the people. I hate our stupid media.
