Rand Paul to Mike Enzi: ‘I’ll do anything I can’ (To help defeat Liz Cheney)

Mike Enzi supports internet sales taxes.

***********

Is Enzi supporting an increase in the sales taxes? If so how much if you know?

[rbmillerjr]

Yes. Gay Marriage is disgusting.

So is Enzi’s not voting on the Schumer sponsored Amnesty...cloture vote. We only needed 7 more votes.

[itsahoot]

I vote for Walt Longmire.

Even though the show is filmed in Arizona and Walt is an Aussie? :-)

[Hot Tabasco]

her lack of deep roots in the state might hurt her.

Never hurt the carpetbagger and Arkansas trailer trash Hillary Clinton,,,,,,,,,

[itsahoot]

But if Sarah Palin or Ted Cruz refuse to back her

Mark Levin supports her whole heartedly, need young blood Enzi votes right but is not a mover and shaker. Enzi will be 70 years old next year.

[itsahoot]

how to spell Karl Rove’s name

Actually it is more properly Karl "Tokyo" Rove.

[rbmillerjr]

Yeah, this race is no slam dunk and each brings their negatives.

Cheney on gay marriage.

Enzi on a whole new taxing concept...the internet

NRSC head Moran supporting Enzi.
Bushite Ari Fleischer supporting Enzi.

I’m going with the new blood and we need people who realize the danger of not fighting terrorism. Besides, the entire establishment getting behind Enzi is a no brainer for me.

[Hot Tabasco]

We are not often given candidates who agree with us on all issues.

If Jesus were to run I'm sure he'd be criticized for creating the first welfare state when he handed out free food to the masses........... /sarc

You're right, there is no perfect candidate and I truly believe the MSM uses us to provide controversy within our own party.

I've said it before and taken heat but I'll say it again: the abortion issue has forever been the dividing point within our party and the MSM has forever made that front page news so we can destroy ourselves from within.

Do all Democrats support abortion? Of course not but you won't read a word from the MSM asking any particular Dem candidate about their own views on it.....

They'd rather throw the crap on the wall and let the rest of us eat our own.........which we do.

[0.E.O]

Enzi will be 70 years old next year.

So was Ronald Reagan, one year into his first term.

[Flavious_Maximus]

I feel the same way you do. I think she is more conservative than Enzi except for the pro-homosexual marriage issue, which is a deal breaker. I would not vote for Ronaldus Maximus Reagen if he were pro sodomy.

I received an email from Liz Cheney yesterday, announcing her candidacy. I do not know how she got my email but I sent a response to unsubscribe. There is NO WAY I would support her.

[Reddon]

Rand Paul also endorsed Mitch McConnell for re-election in 2014, and said he would not back a Tea Party primary challenge to McConnell. That was disappointing. I don’t know enough about Cheney or Enzi yet but if it is a close call I would lean toward throwing out the incumbent. The Senate has too many ancient, entrenched fossils who stay there sucking up a salary and occupying a position long past their usefulness, too often until they drop dead.

[Stentor]

she established her residency here (where the Federal Reserve Bank hosts their annual economic policy symposium)

Bingo.

[rbmillerjr]

Well if Enzi is as energetic as a Seventy year old Reagan, he’ll have no problem taking on and defeating Cheney.

No more entitled free rides.

[Nita Nupress]

I would see who Levin, Palin, and Cruz support. I’ve already heard Levin support her while listening to his show the other day.

Also, i would pay attention to who the GOPe endorses and who the FR shills go for. :-)

[Absolutely Nobama]

Not a bad record. From what I can gather, Enzi is a backbencher and not a leader, like say Rand Paul or Ted Cruz. That’s fine. Patton couldn’t do it without his men and Patton’s men couldn’t have done it without him.

Frankly, I’ve had enough of the Bush gang. It’s time for them to fade away.(No I’m not a Bush basher. I just want fresh blood representing the good guys once in a while.) At the same time, Enzi has been in CONgress for a long time. I am not a fan of CONgress critters being in office for decades.

[Absolutely Nobama]

Is none of the above an option ?

[Absolutely Nobama]

“So do democRats Joe Manchin....”

I’m fairly certain that’s going to take a major hit in Manchin’s case.

[Absolutely Nobama]

I like to call him “Tokyo Rove”, but I’m just another “hobbit” who can’t see the big picture. Don’t mind me.

[Absolutely Nobama]

“Paul has his own problems to deal with.”

Like his whackjob father if he goes for the gold in 2016. No, Rand is nothing like the Scooby Doo Villian, but as far as the arrogant and lazy media is concerned, We the Conservatives and They the Paultards are one and the same.

It should be noted, however, that Rand Paul would have my vote if the primaries started today and he was a combatant. Unless Ted Cruz runs, Paul would have my unconditional support.

[Shugee]

Dick Cheney endorsed Rand Paul’s opponent in the Kentucky primary three years ago.
