Now watch the Republican elites run away from Mourdock. In fact I fully expect them to campaign for his Democrat opponent. Just like they did in 2010.

I expect Lugar to run as an independent, with covert support from both the Dems and the GOP elite. Neither wants Mourdock to win...

Exactly! After all, RINOs have always been creatures of habit.

Absolutely right. They’ll be trashing Mourdock and the Tea Party within hours. If only we had taken our marching orders from Rove et al. like good little party minions everything would be fine.

I hope tonight is just the beginning of many good primary nights for conservatives; on to Nebraska, Texas, Utah, and elsewhere.

Two questions: (1) What exactly happened in 2011? and (2) Why are you pretending to be a conservative when you explicitly support a pot smoking Libertarian?

They'll come damn close to doing so. You already had people like John Cornyn trying to scare Conservatives by claiming that it would be difficult to hold that seat if Lugar was defeated in the primary. It's going to get dirty, but I'm glad to see Lugar gone. Now we just need to do this a lot more, and not just in 2012, but in 2014 and 2016, because a lot of folks not up for election are feeling too dadgum comfortable in their RINO ways.

Yes, as I said, they lost a number of races on purpose.
