Friggin Christie(NJ) says he will be backing Graham in South Carolina. What does that tell you ?

[clee1]

Chambliss in GA is retiring - his will be an open seat. There are either 9 or 11 GOP contestants, and the Dems seem likely to put Sam Nunn’s daughter Michelle up against whoever wins the GOP primary.

BTW, Jimmy Carter’s grandson Jason will be running for GA Gov on the rat party ticket.

Sen. Tom Harkin, Democrat-Iowa, announced his retirement over nine months ago.

Unfortunately, the Paultards who have nominal control of the Iowa GOP are doing their best to torpedo whoever ends up being the Republican nominee. The only chance in a generation is almost gone.

At this point, I don't know who the RNC will push. At one point I was thinking Bolling - but most Republicans in the Commonwealth know his career is over - he just doesn't realize it yet. I also believe that McDonald wants to rise from the ashes of the Star Scientific debacle, but he is too tainted. Next month is the Republican Advance and more will be learned at that gathering. I think Cooch is the only logical choice based on the passion of his workers and his database. If he decides to go for it, I'm sure he'll be the pick at the Convention over anyone - unless Ted Cruz moves into the Commonwealth. I don't see any Congressmen going for it at this time. There's also a lot of buzz about Ken doing it internally. But we'll see...

“Mark Warner (D) replaced by Ken Cuccinelli (R) “

Ok, you are officially a sore loser. The scumbag McAuliff won, it is over, Warner is not vulnerable and has a personal wealth of about 200 million to smash any opponent.

[GeronL]

Whoever the RNC endorses and Karl Rove funds, vote against them.

[GeronL]

So we can have the “moderate Republicans” in Alaska run a third party candidate again?

[staytrue]

“At this point, I don’t know who the RNC will push.”

RNC does not care about this race as RNC does not believe it is winnable.

[103198]

Damn it, they've got to get along with the GoPe have to learn to work together or a great opportunity will be missed.

In Virginia, the GoPe did not support the Tea Party/Paul candidate and it just cost the RPV and Cooch the victory. I and other conservatives supported their Bolling, McCain, Romney, etc. It was now their turn to support my Cuccinelli and they didn't. The leaders have to wise-up and pull the factions together if we plan to win again. The Virginia Republican Party is converting into a more Constitutional party every day imho. The Virginia GoPe needs to get on board with that.

[103198]

I think the RNC is forced to care about this race because of the House of Representatives. They have to ensure that Republican voters come out across all eight Republican Districts across the Commonwealth - which is also part of the Senate strategy. We'll see what happens this spring with the plans and the RPV questioning the RNC and NRSC.

[nascarnation]

Will she run in Arizona where she lives now? Based on informal polling during my trip to Alaska I wouldn’t consider her very popular up North.

[jjotto]

I get your point and wish it were as you assume, but it is not. Actual conservatives are being frozen out too.

[103198]

I'm not a sore loser. I know TMac won. What does that have to with this discussion? Every politician is vunerable. I'm not a quitter. I don't give up.

How about you?

[Keen-Minded]

It was very interesting how bad the polls were in this race. Some had TMac winning by double digits and I don't think any were even with in the margin of error of what occurred.

[catfish1957]

Watch Cornyn do a faux right turn. Too bad for him we conservatives have a good memory. Watch him squirm during the primaries.

[103198]

I see this as a war that will take years and most likely decades. We have a Marxist in the White House and a number of others in the Congress. There are going to be a lot of battles but they must be fought. It is too important.

We are seeing a sea change in the Republican Party that must also occur - or it will go the way of the dinosaurs and possibly our great Nation with it. There has to be an opposing and growing force to the Marxist Dems.

[jjotto]

Yep.

But don’t count on Iowa for leadership.

Prominent conservative Republicans in Iowa have backed out of the Senate race, leaving radio talk show host and gadfly Sam Clovis as the only real conservative, with little-known State Senator Joni Ernst a distant second in my mind. A few other candidates seem typical RINOs.

Ernst is attractive, a military veteran and mostly says the right things. She has also endorsed immigration reform AKA open borders, a deal-breaker. Millions of new lower class citizens erase any hope of conservative control of government, so someone claiming to be a conservative while endorsing open borders will never have to produce on their promises.

[103198]

How strong is the Tea Party there? Can't they encourage a good conservative to run or get to Ernst?

[duffee]

Senator Thad Cochran Ms. is a RINO and is opposed in the Republican Primary by State Senator Chris McDaniel.
