I agree.

She has given us no reason to want her ousted. She is pro-life, and has vehemently supported President Trump's agenda, and is adamantly defending him during this bogus impeachment.

The Senate is not supposed to hand pick its own membership. Or block from election (through the NRSC) those it doesn’t want. But that’s exactly what’s been going on.

And it’s how we end up with so many pantywaists.

”The shortsightedness in this decision is stunning. Doug Collins’ selfishness will hurt David Perdue, Kelly Loeffler, and President Trump," National Republican Senatorial Committee Executive Director Kevin McLaughlin said in a statement.

Let's see, submitting the selection of a senator to the vote of the people rather than acquiescing in the choice of one man is somehow "selfish."

It is time the elites of the Republican Party gave way to the people.

Challenging a sitting incumbent didn’t work out so well for Bob Barr.

Actually it might be if it keeps her voting with Trump through impeachment, etc.

The Senate GOP always backs its RINO own.

Competition is usually a good thing but I see nothing in Collins’s statement that distinguishes him from Loeffler.

So yeah what’s the plan here?

What’s Collins saying he can do that Loeffler can’t or won’t do?

These committees are all about incumbent protection.

Sure hope this is not leading to another term for Doug Jones ...

I don't know what is wrong with Alabama, not to mention Virginia.

I wish Doug Collins could hop across the state line and run for Lamar Alexander’s seat, or Kelly Loeffler could run in a primary against several RINOs. She has been a lot better than expected. Trump should have enough coattails to carry either of them to a win, but it would be better to have both of them in D.C. in some capacity.

I know nothing about Georgia politics, nor how this will play out, but I do know that the governor owes his election to Trump, and that he was a bit ungrateful ignoring Trump’s stated request.

If Collins loses out, can he still run for his old seat?

Maybe but believing a primary challenge would cost the Republicans GA up and down. The ticket is silly

A Challenge should make her stronger.

Just make them raise their own money for the primary. The GOP shouldn’t be picking sides in Primaries by funding candidates, unless a stealth ‘Rat is running against them.

Collins reminds me of young people who prefer the speed of their own voice rather than the clarity of their thinking. He could learn from the Dersh-meister or any other competent lawyer.

She’s an appointment “incumbent” and has been in her seat for little more than 5 minutes. It’s hilarious to see the GOPe spin her as such.

Loeffler donated $750,000 during the 2012 presidential election to Romney super PAC Restore Our Future.

The financial executive has also donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to former Speaker Ryan’s political campaigns and PACs.
