"It is becoming clear to me -- not that it needs to be any more clear -- that the Republican establishment does not want to run against Obamacare."

And as if to prove that Rush is right, Republican consultant Matthew Dowd on This Week With George Stephanopoulos rejected Obamacare as the reason for the victory of David Jolly over Alex Sink in last week's special congressional election in Florida. On Friday, Rush Limbaugh spoke extensively on his broadcast about how establishment Republicans want to downplay Obamacare as an issue in both the recent election as well in the congressional elections this November.

Republican politicians do not want to represent the voters. They are busy with other money making and power grabbing activities.

They certainly do not want to be in the majority

Look at mc chains pres run. Ditto Romney

Attack co primary GOPers and schmooze the dem, Benghazi or not, right into the White House.

C’mon

Running people because of the sound of the name is a long employed tactic for the GOPe RINOs here in Florida. Note the last GOPe senatorial candidate Connie Mack IV. Nothing about him said winning campaign. He was chosen for his name only and he lost big.
