I agree, Dickerson was very embarrsing to the rats, so it would have been great if he were the rat nominee but he didn’t file in time, in fact it have all been a publicity stunt on his part.

In the longer run, this is a win even if the Republicans lose in the general election. The GOPe types need to learn that long term incumbent or not, you cannot declare war on your base without there being consequences.

Thanks for the analysis!

No doubt Cantor received plenty of votes from Dems.

too many opponents splitting the conservative vote and resources. too much pride. none of them would drop out, so conservatives could coalesce around one candidate. i sent money to brat. couldn’t send any money to SC.

It appears as though all that DemocRAT garbage spewed and vomited by the state controlled “media” about the GOP needing to “change their brand” was BS. Americans are getting fed up! They’re tired of having all of their rights and freedoms being taking away by this Marxist regime. In Arizona, we’re tired of the Kenyan busing foreign invaders into our state!

Nebraska’s Ben Sasse had the right idea when he suggested that the power of the lobbyists etc should be decentralized by putting the Capitol in the middle of nowhere and/or doing federal business via technology such as Skype so that the power is not all located in one big schmoozing media-political corruptocrazy. (typo but it fits so I’ll leave it. lol)

All that would do is make the lobbying go underground.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Nebraska’s Ben Sasse had the right idea when he suggested that the power of the lobbyists etc should be decentralized by putting the Capitol in the middle of nowhere and/or doing federal business via technology such as Skype so that the power is not all located in one big schmoozing media-political corruptocrazy. (typo but it fits so I’ll leave it. lol)

The Devil's bargain offered to Repubs: be "bipartisan" and you will live high in DC:parties, lobbyist-paid vacations and mistresses, and the press will take no interest. Cross the real Powers, and your life goes under a microscope.

Fantastic news!!!!

But, being pessimistic, expect sore-loser, scorched-earth retribution during his long lame-duck time in that powerful position. And Boehner will only be too happy to help.

The country is being destroyed rapidly and this is just one small victory. I think this seat is safe, but we have to step up our recruitment and campaigning for Tea Party candidates. They must replace the entire GOP leadership as soon as possible for us to have any chance at saving this nation.
