Get off it, the tea party and conservatives are delivering historic victories while the GOPe is losing to Jimmy Carter, and you collect years worth of names to pretend otherwise.
Just about every good name in the GOP right now, came from recent conservative efforts and victories, not the GOPe branch of losers.
Republicans were posed to take the Senate and Angle(prior midterm) , Akin and that other one were a big help keeping the Senate in Os hands, so now we can listen to Reid's barking every day and Obama;s arrogant boasting.
A 30 state strategy may be OK for the House with districting but its a disaster for the Senate and WH.
Romney wasn't any better with his 47% comment. He was as out of touch as the others above.
Problem is that once these fools blow it with these its a lose-lose. defending them just brings everyone else down in that election, and being critical of them doesnt fix it either,
The past few years there was a delusion that 2012 would be just another 2010 so Republicans could say anything and still win, the delusion was that Dems would not turn out and vote no matter what.
