There are no “game changers”. If McDaniel wins (and I certainly hope he does), it is just one more step forward in a very long march towards restoring America.

Cantor’s defeat is already having an impact. He had to resign from his leadership position. And if McDaniel wins, the Tea Party reps in congress will be further strengthened and emboldened. We may disagree about “game changers” but IMO a McDaniel victory would send a very powerful message to intrenched GOPe interests. Trust me, they are afraid these victories will lead to a critical mass that shifts the balance of power within the GOP.
The Tea Party is America’s best hope to reform the country and redirect a party that in its present state only pretends to represent conservative interests.
Completely correct. There is certainly cause for optimism but not until there are more conservatives than establishment types in office.
I used to naively think as well that after a few victories the GOP-e would “get it” and at least tack some to the right but now it’s obvious they want power and will not give it up until it’s taken from them.
