You are about to get angry posts from ideologues who believe that the sole qualification for a good GOP/conservative candidate is that he/she claim that they are the ‘most conservative” candidate in the primary, regardless of whatever nonsense they spout about rape or other issues.
They will defend those bad candidates beyond all logic, including the fact that the candidates lost in otherwise Red States because of those peculiar views.
All they want to do is shout ‘RINO” at anyone, candidate or not, who might argue that rape is not pre-ordained by the God of their particular religious vision or other peculiar and minority beliefs.
And they never will admit that at least two of them, Angle in NV in 2010 and Akin in MO in 2012, were hand picked by Harry Reid. The Democrats spent money in the Republican Primary to nominate the weakest Republican candidate.
Until we sole that problem, and admitting it exists is the first step, we are going to continue to give away seats in the Senate.
