“Weak, wishy-washy republicans are potential allies to manipulate and give us a majority so Conservative leaders we both can agree upon can lead the country. Give Rand Paul the votes he needs.”
Well said. Example of “weak” republicans being persuaded - Bush picking Harriet Myers for the Supreme Court. The grass roots rose up and beat that back. Did any Democrats listen when conservatives tried to stop Democrat supreme court picks? No, of course not. Whether Republicans or Dems are in charge, they know that they are accountable to their base. So why would we want Harry Reid in charge? We don’t just vote for our individual Senator, we also vote for control of the Chamber.
I just don’t see how it is good to let the country veer further left.
We need a lot more people like Ted Cruz in Congress
