“and this time it will be due to the Establishment’s idiocy in incumbent races”
That’s why we didn’t win the senate LAST time! Hoekstra in MI, Allen in VA, Berg in ND, Thompson in WI, Rehberg in MT, Mack in FL, Wilson in NM.
They can blame Akin and Mourdock all they want, but all their preferred candidates went down in flames in 2012. And it’s likely that some will again this year.
Difference, those were establishment candidates for either open seats, or challenging weak dems.
This time around, it sits on a knife edge. I still predict we maybe take the senate by 1, but if somewhere doesn’t come through, like Iowa for example, Pat Roberts will have cost us the senate. The establishment’s drive to protect incumbents, their disgusting tactics in Mississippi, have dried up their funding and enthusiasm.
Of Akin and Mourdock, one was a fake.
