That Romney did better than Ted Cruz in Texas should annoy quite a few people here.
The others are just the tired old GOP/Karl Rove regurgitated safe names - Hoeckstra, Mack, Berg and Rehberg. If anything, this says nuts to Karl.
No one should be surprised that Romney ran ahead of Akin and Mourdock. Both of those candidates were effectively third-party—they were running against a Democratic opponent and the Karl Rove/Mitt Romney national GOP.
Also in the FL CD18 Romney got about 7,000 more total votes than did Allen West. Had West held the Romney Votes he’d have won easily. Strange elections this year.
Sacramento, CA – Tea Party Express, the nation’s largest tea party political action committee, is urging Congressman Todd Akin to resign his candidacy for the U.S. Senate.
PALIN: No. I’m suggesting that he get out. He should have reached that deadline today, I believe, personally, and gotten out of the race, but because he did not do that, Greta, then we have to figure out, OK, well, what is next? Again, without trying to pile on Todd Akin and what he’s going through right now, maybe it is a third-party run of Sarah Steelman that I can get behind, and, granted the status quo has got to go would be an odd name for a third party, but we’ll coin it, adopt it, run with it if that’s what it takes in order to get a commonsense constitutional, happens to be pro-life woman in Missouri to clean up this mess that’s been created and at the same time take back the Senate, which means we get to take back the country and put government back on the side of the people.
