Agree on poor messaging. But after the Mississippi runoff it’s clear the establishment GOP is as willing to target tea party conservatives as the White Hut.

Agreed. Possibly More so. The GOP hasn't gone after anyone aggressively since Lurch in 2004. Even that was minor (although effective) compared to the ruthlessness in this primary season.

A Veterans group went after John F’n Kerry, the GOPE distanced itself from any effective attack on Kerry

> There is plenty of outrage! Just wait until we take back the Senate!

Not as likely to happen as you think.

I won’t vote for RINO Scott Brown.

A lot of conservatives in MS won’t vote for the cockroach Cochran. Same for Mitch McConnel.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see the DemonRATS pick up a couple seats.

Things have to get a lot worse before they can get any better. No point in voting for the “lesser of two evils” any more.

Has nothing to do with pouting and everything to do with the hatred and contempt the GOPE has for conservatives.

Well, yes. The campaign went after him hard on the flip flop narrative and it was successful. The veterans went after Kerry’s history and it was highly effective too. Much harder hitting.
