some way, someone will make things right

The results of the Virginia election should be enough to cause a revolt within the GOP. But nothing will come of it.
Don’t know the detail about RGA.
It’s not like RNC wasting money on Christie instead, is it?
I don’t blame the RGA as much as the RNC but then again we need to start blaming ourselves because if we want candidates that aren’t owned by big money interests and who represent us and not those interests then it is WE who will need to fund them. It doesn’t mean we even have to cut big checks. The power is in numbers. There are millions of conservatives and constitutionalists in America and if we can’t each donate $5 to $10 a piece a month on the one most pinnacle race in this election season then there is something wrong with us. There were 2 races that deserved our attention the Lonegan race and the Cuccinelli race and it wasn’t till right at the last weeks of the race did either of the races get the attention they needed. While Lonegan was a true longshot Cuccinelli could’ve been a slamdunk and even Lonegan would’ve probably won had the selfish bastard at the top of the ticket had scheduled the election on the same day as the Governor’s race.
Sure the establishment is to blame for screwing up the GOP party but we need to realize that those that have screwed it up are benefiting from it and will not help us fix it because it means they lose their power. Very few in the top echelons really believe in individual liberty and true constitutional governance which is why they won’t run on it.
There isn’t going to be a comeback. Ken, unfortunately, is finished. The GOP-e rejected him, and the Grassroots cannot support him by himself.
The RGA should have let Cuccinelli's team spend money as they see fit. Running China ads were quite stupid -- and something Jindal would likely endorse.
Jindal is my Governor. Jindal has foolish ambitions to be President.
Jindal can best be described as a technocrat. He has never had any private sector experience.
Jindal can parrot Conservative principles at times, but it is just an intellectual exercise on his part.
Unoke, Cruz, Mike Lee and Palin, Jindal does not have Conservatism in his DNA.
I bet the RGA had marching orders from the RNC to squash this Tea Party moment to clear the way for a Christie 2016 run.
Bobby Jindal: The system corrupts them faster than we can vote them out. Only the states can restore America:

I’m done with the GOP.
I blame the voters in Virginia. You get the government you vote for...and I hope it HURTS!
Sadly this is a big part of GOP politics. Big egos that don’t listen and are tone deaf to the voters. I had this very thing happen in my last campaign I ran, the firm hired by the SMF basically ran ads that were totally out of kilter to what would reach the voters.
Not to argue over politicians, but another 7 million bucks, well spent, would have made a big difference.
The advisor isn’t named, who is it and why should I believe this story?
Could this guy be one of the 4% of Republicans that voted for McAuliffe?
Tea Party Conservatives cannot depend on the Republican Party. Period.
Why would he care. The Republicans have just joined forces with the Democrats FULLY and declared war against anyone who will not pass socialist, communist, fascist and amnesty legislation.
They are telling it like it is and it is the old RNC that needs to become extinct.
He's blasting away at Republicans who were no help and won't be in the future.
If he ever wins office it will be in spite of these people.
"Fresh" enemies? Apparently the RNC already considers itself an enemy of Cuccinelli and conservatives everywhere.
by blasting away at Republicans whose help he might need for a comeback?"
LOL, they ditched him when he needed them most; why would anyone think they'd help him at some future date?
There have been numerous articles about how the GOP-e sabotaged the Cuccinelli campaign intentional as a way to undermine the Tea Pary.
Just use Keyword GOPE on Freerepublic.
You will see what I mean.
Rush Limbaugh highlighted the betrayal by the GOP-establishment (GOP-e) the morning after the election.

as bad as the RGA was, the RNC was worse; spending three times less in Virginia in 2013 as they did in 2009; RGA did bad by what they did, the RNC did worse by all it did not do; you can give the RGA a C- for bad strategy, but give the RNC an F for a non-strategy and what appears to be their HOPING Cuncinelli would lose.
