I agree we can’t elect the same candidate in ME that we elect in WY, but they can have enough core conservative principles to have a meeting of the minds when it really counts.
Before I would agree with you that the party leadership should lay down the law and effect some discipline, I’d like for them to first prove themselves by running some vertebrates as candidates for a change. Until they do that consistently, the less power they have, the better off we are.
Trust the leadership? NY23 still chafes. Scuzzy was the LEADERSHIP’s candidate, passing over Hoffman. The rat who won by blatantly lying to the dumbass electorate was one of the two votes that put Pelosi’s deathcare over the top. The “leadership” increased Pelosi’s chances of getting that vote from 1:1 to 2:0 by running Scuzzy instead of Hoffman. Even Hoffman throwing his hat in as thrid-party only lowered Pelosi’s chance to 2:1. We saw what happened.
Leadership, my ass.
Amen Brother or Sister!
The lack of leadership IS THE PROBLEM. I’ve posted in the past that the GOP leaders in the Senate should be: DeMint, Sessions, Coburn, Inhofe - they have spines of steel.
In the House: Pense, Ryan and McCotter.
GOP Chairman/woman: Hell, I’d love to see John Bolton for that post.
