You wanna check Karl Rove for polyps while you’re up there?
Barrone is pretty good and I agree with him more than not.
His implication that Rand Paul is a TEA Party favorite is incorrect. Rand shot himself in the foot with his stance on amnesty and views that reflect his dad’s (Ron). Likewise, Rubio did the same regarding amnesty (and is ineligible to be Prez; having been born to parents of foreign citizenship).
Exactly, it doesn’t matter which party the big government leftist is running for .
“If they want to run RINOs they should run them in those democrat district where they might do some actual good.”
What is the matter, Teaparty candidates and/or Conservative candidates too chicken to run against a democrat incumbent ?
To which someone always asks “You really don’t see any difference between democrats and republicans?”
To which I say, no they are each bad in their own unique ways.
Like I said, a republican is challenging for the Dingell seat without party backing.
Low do you need a flashlight zotbait?
GOPe WANTS their second-tier power all to themselves.
They aren’t equipped to use principles, morals or conservatism to win anything but their own perverted little constituencies that seem content to be lied to twice a year about their representatives show votes and treachery.
They don’t want to be in charge; they don’t want to rock the boat and upset their comfy, dissembling, appeasing traitorous lives. They’ll fight tooth and nail for it, to the bitter end, but it won’t be against Democrats, it’s the conservatives (Tea Party, for want of a better name) who is their enemy.
Dumping money in a race so that they can control that person if elected is why they are doing this crap. Rove and his ilk are nothing but losers.
Like Delaware in 2010, right?
GOP voters got their ideologically sound nominee. Unfortunately, in their rush to nominate a true Conservative and destroy a RINO they neglected to properly vet their choice. Who turned out to be both susceptable to personal attacks (charges of involvement in witchcraft) and and too inexperienced to counter those personal attacks effectively, that prevented any sort of discussion or debate on actual issues.
If pointing that simple political reality out makes me a “boot licker” so be it. Guys like central_va (some of whom I suspect are really just Soros-paid trolls who come out here to stir up dissention) can sit around griping at the unfairness and immorality/unconstitutionalty of the latest Liberal policy implementation while the country burns down around them. All the while accusing anyone who does differentlt of being a RINO/GOPe bootlicker.I prefer to be out at least trying to fight the fire.
People who can win? Like Dole, McCain and Romney?
Lol
Or Virginia where an actual conservative wins the nomination and gets the back of the hand from the GOPe establishment which results in the Democrats winning a race that the Republicans could have won if they had put as much into it as last time around.
Very true.
VA was winnable by Cuccinelli. I’m not arguing for GOPe candidates, I’m arguing for some pragmatism in understanding that a GOPe candidate who can win in a Blue state/district is still better than a Dem candidate who WILL win if the only Tea Party criteria is ideological purity.
I don’t know anything about Delaware or who runs there but I can tell you that Terri Land is running in Michigan without tea party opposition because she’s acceptable to both tea party and establishment.
GOPe candidates “who can win” shouldn’t get any conservative votes at all
If it makes you feel better to ride a RINO over the progressive cliff so be it.
About Senator Paul, show me he voted for amnesty for the illegals. You can't because he didn't. Maybe you believe supporting legal immigration is the same as supporting amnesty. It is not. I am a naturalized citizen (1977) who came here legally in 1966 and believe that anyone who wants to come here should do so legally and not sneak in.
The way the GOPe left Cuccinelli hanging out to dry was a travesty. All of you GOPe bootlickers can delude yourself, but yo are being used - yet again. Where else you gonna go right?
Ted Cruz. Mike Lee. It can be done when we choose serious candidates. Far too many of the Tea Party insurgent candidates have been people who quite simply lack the resume or the gravitas to be taken seriously as candidates.
We got a winnah! Post of the day.
