Interesting irony there. Their constant refrain during the primary was that if you didn't blindly support "Obama's cousin" over a proven conservative, you were part of the "liberal Republican establishment".
Yet now we have a general election campaign where the choice is between a proven Ted Cruz ally and a liberal RINO backed by the Democrats -- and some Milton Wolf fans in the primary are openly hoping the liberal RINO wins.
I'd say it says far more about them that it does about the candidates, IMO. Any "conservative" who WANTS a liberal RINO to defeat a Senator from the Ted Cruz wing of the GOP has far more in common with the Arlen Specter wing of the party than with Reagan Republicans, regardless of how loudly they declare themselves to be "Tea Party" people.
After all, the worst RINOs in government reached the exact same conclusion when they couldn't beat a proven conservative in the primary. Lisa Murkowski, Mike Castle, Dede Scozzafava all said out flat that they were rooting for a leftist backed by the Democrats to win the general election, and gloated that they hoped the conservative Republican would lose so it would "teach the GOP a lesson".
Another "true conservative" on here defended the liberal voting record of an alleged "tea party" candidate and his response was "Damn right" on whether he agreed with Obama, Pelosi, etc., on closing gitmo. Again, it says far more about these "conservatives" than it does about the candidates they're opposing.
If it were up to me anyway, any freeper backing Orman over Roberts would be zotted. We didn't allow the Giuliani and Romney shrills on here to promote a "moderate" in bed with the Dems over a proven conservative Republican, so it shouldn't be allowed when it comes to the Kansas Senate race either. Any bitter Milton Wolf fan backing Orman has shown his or her true colors -- and they are indeed "red" and dedicated to making Kansas a "red state". They want the marxists to win.
Hear, hear!
I don’t know if Orman was ever a RINO or not (good chance he was) but he hasn’t been one recently, he’s a been a democrat since at least 2008.
As for Claire, imagine that, a democrat mad that the democrat party’s nominee is on the ballot.
BTW “recent polls” have not showed Orman leading Roberts. ONE poll has, an Orman internal poll.
