Thinking about MA, if you desire to rid yourself of an elected politician, how comfortable would you be if I, some others from KS, OK, ID and AR get behind someone that doesn't live too far from you and other friends whom you know very well, have met the guy, don't like him, know he's never done anything for anyone! He now runs his mouth off, name dropping and pretending to be this big conservative, when you and others who do know him well, know he is NOT.
How do you feel knowing I and others tell you that if you don't get behind him and support him, you must be a RINO, simply because you don't agree with us, who don't know him at all?
“How do you feel knowing I and others tell you that if you don’t get behind him and support him, you must be a RINO, simply because you don’t agree with us, who don’t know him at all?”
When have I done that? My goal is a more conservative US Senate. A third of the senate is up for election every second year (we have a couple of extras this year because of SC, HI and OK). To achieve a more conservative senate, those currently sitting in those seats should be scrutinized. Democrats are a given. Every one of them needs to be replaced, if possible. That leaves the republicans, and they should not be allowed to just get reelected or go unchallenged because they’re in republican states and we want to safely keep those seats. Because that makes those senators arrogant and will represent, not the state or their constituents, but themselves.
I don’t know you any more than I know Wolf or Roberts. Roberts may indeed win over Wolf, but in the past, politicians have more easily gotten reelected because nobody knows somebody else is running against them. So I post stories on FR to keep people informed of what’s going on with these primary challenges across the country.
I want a change in leadership and Roberts will vote for McConnell so I’m advocating for his removal by supporting Wolf. But I have absolutely no real influence whatsoever in Kansas other than to let those on FR know that their senator has an opponent.
