MSNBC?! Tom Coburn, who thinks he is a "conservative" in his definition but not in Senator Cruz', goes on MSNBC to whine and make his case?!

FAIL! Big Time! Viva Ted Cruz!

Here's a description of Tom Coburn and his gOLDp senate colleagues from Rush's interview with Senator Cruz yesterday afternoon .....

I will tell you the single biggest surprise in arriving to the Senate is the defeatist attitude here. I mean, we don't even talk about how to win a fight. There's no discussion. We talk about, "Hey, let's get a show vote so we can go tell our constituents we're doing something." But I promise you, Rush, if you had to sit through one Senate lunch, you'd be in therapy for a month ... but they've been here a long time, and they're beaten down, and they don't believe we can win. They don't believe it can happen, and the answer they say on every issue is, "No, we can't do it. We can't do it."

This reminds me of the House of Representatives in the 90's before Newt Gingrich arrived. And he showed them they could to which V.P. Dick Cheney attests ...

When Newt showed up he said, we can become the majority, we can take back the House of Representatives. We hadn't had the House since the 1940s. And initially, none of us believed it. But he was persistent, he was tenacious. He kept it up, kept it up, and kept it up. Finally by '94 he's the newly elected Speaker of the House of Representatives with a Republican majority.

good quote.
These establishment types have been there for some long that they want the media and the left to like them and thus they just cower to the left.

Sarah tried to win and the establishment came out against her, so who needs enemies on the left wen we have MCcain, Graham, Coburn
