I can find not a word to disagree with in this vanity. A few thoughts might be added. A few of these Rinos should be executed in order to encourage the others. Evidently, Mike Lee and his victory in Utah could not teach the rest of the party a lesson. Too many of them think they can do what John McCain did, run to the right, declare the "damn fence must be built," gain reelection and veer to the left.

Bill Bennett just terminated his morning radio show the main thrust of which was that we ought to be very reticent about terminating Rinos because we need every Senate vote we can get. This was echoed by Ann Coulter who has been flirting with Rinos for quite a while now.

Concededly, the Senate is a very difficult place to enforce discipline along party lines. Nevertheless, it must be done. The shameful exercise of Senate Rinos running to the microphones to declare that the efforts of Mike Lee and Ted Cruz , which had not yet begun, could not possibly succeed were unforgivable treachery. Not only did they doom the efforts to fail but they cut the moral ground out from under those who wanted to defund Obamacare by suggesting that the whole effort was somehow illegitimate and by suggesting that Obama's obdurancy in defending Obamacare even at the cost of shutting down the government was somehow legitimate. Somehow because of these Rinos, the issue became why would Ted Cruz want to shut down the government?

That sort of treachery means that you do not even have a party. That disagreement was not over tactics that disagreement was over fundamental understanding of the role of government. The Rinos flunked the test. Worse, it was an effort by the establishment of the Republican Party to neuter or even destroy Ted Cruz before he could become a viable presidential candidate.

In addition to defunding Obamacare the author raises the issue of amnesty. These two issues together with abortion and raising taxes (making 4) should be the absolute acid test which, if flunked, disqualifies any candidate from Republican Party support. That includes incumbents. If the party will not discipline its own than the tea party will.

Do not leave Texas Senator JOHN CORNYN off of this list. He is one of the very worst. As Minority Whip, he did NOTHING to help stop or slow down the Senate Amnesty Bill. He also did the same on the efforts to DEFUND Obamacide.

a Democratic Senator

Ain't nothing "democratic" about a RAT.

[ryan71]

Agreed.

I use Senate confirmation votes to identify people who are dangerous to the nation. If a senator voted to confirm one of B O’s Supreme Court nominees, that concentrates enormous anti-Constitution and anti-American power in the hands of one USSC justice. B O’s nominees were chosen by B O for their ideological extremism and their willingness to not only ignore Constitutionality in their decisions but to actively weaken the Constitutional law and protections of Americans. They are a grave danger to America and senators who confirm them are simply bad.

This is all true. However, the system can corrupt career politicians faster than we can primary them. Only the state legislatures can save our Republic now. Washington is the problem—and they are not going to give up their riches and perks for principle.

Hatch is retiring. He’s not running again.

My hope is that Mia Love takes Jim Matheson’s house seat in 2014 (very likely), and then runs for Hatch’s senate seat.

[Graewoulf]

Unfortunately, Hatch and McCain are not running for re-election in 2014.

Thus, we need to attack them from a recall standpoint.

The more points of attack that we can bring to bear on the enemies of the Republic, inside and outside of the Markist Obamanation Administration, the more likely we are to put those enemies on the defensive.

BTW, the only way to win in Politics is to stay on the OFFENSIVE!

Attack, Attack, ATTACK!

We need a third party or Democrat house only strategy in certain districts to get rid of Denham, Grimm, Peter King, Duffy and Coffman. Some of them will survive a primary but could lose in swing districts when 10% of the GOP base doesnt vote.

The GOP only needs a majority caucus but more conservative.
