“Missed it by that much.”

A Senior Republican leadership aide described the mood as "chaos for the leadership ranks."
"We're absolutely stunned. Honestly, we really can't believe it," said the aide, who likened it to the 2004 election defeat of Tom Daschle of South Dakota, who was Senate minority leader at the time.
"Given the speculation Boehner himself may decide not to run again for speaker, the idea had been out there that Cantor would simply walk into the speakership," said the aide. "But now, who the hell would be the next speaker?"—particularly, the aide added.

That's because the Tea Party is not an organization; it is an IDEAL. And you cannot kill an ideal.
Is it OK if I gloat?
I’m gloating right there with ya. But we still have a helluva lotta work to do. This was one battle. We have yet to storm their coast. Guns up!
Wrong, YOU brought up trade and the only think I objected to you was your misguided attack on NAFTA:
* Cancel NAFTA.
* Abolish all Federal, State and Local Welfare payments to non-citizens of the USA.
* Block all money transfers to Mexico, or other any Country South of our Southern Border.
* Have lunch.
* After lunch, pass and sign Federal Penalty law to anyone who hires an Illegal Alien Invader, with a fine of $1,000 per day per alien.
* String Concertina Wire Holding-Pen Stockades at 100 mile intervals for the gotta-ways.
* Be as hostile to Mexicans as the Mexicans have been to the US Marine held and tortured in Prison by the Mexican Guards for the last two months.
* Hire Greyhound Bus Company to transport Illegal Alien Invaders to Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Chain Link Desert Spa near Phoenix, Arizona.
* Have supper.”
You could not be more wrong.
The truth is, I have personally recruited dozens of candidates to run in Republican primaries in my life. Often we defeated incumbent Republicans.
My point stands, smart economists support NAFTA and another poster is trying to impose his misguided views against NAFTA on the candidates involved. I am sure Brat is in 100% agreement with me on all the economic issues.
I don’t recall Daschle’s being defeated in his own party’s primary.
Busing in wet dreamers wasn’t a very good idea. Deportation is the answer. Aiding and abetting illegal alien invaders is a crime! If we had a REAL Department of Justice, all of the commie DemocRATS and half of the GOP would be in prison where they belong.
to steal from ole Joe Biden...
“Amnesty is dead and the Tea Party is alive”
Buh bye Karl Rove, you worthless DemocRat.
That’s basically what he said tonight on Hannity. We just have to convince folks that common sense is not dead. Common sense is not normally taught in our schools but if candidates like this one teach common sense principles perhaps the USA/world can be changed.
If you have 100,000,000 workers who will work for $10.00 per hour plus benefits and SS deductions (matched by employer) and 100,000,000 who will gladly take $5.00 with no taxes or benefits which would YOU choose? Changing the USA completely into a third world nation.
BUT if you teach Honduras and Guatamala how to imitate our common sense model Hondurans and Guatamalans will stay home and build their own successful economies.
Then our own folks who were born here, educated here or immigrated here legally can advance in the manner traditionally envisioned by the founders.
What’s so hard to understand?
Been watching FOX most of the night and unless I missed it, I didn't see *Pig* Rove and his little chalk board all night.
He usually pops up on FOX during an election.
Maybe he was feeling a little under the weather tonight :)
How can you tell? Just type in free legal aid in Texas on GOOOOgle and see who gets a chance. It’s not people whose families have been living here for the last 100 200 years.
Or in any other state.
Try it and see for your self.
The Mafia would be proud of the protection racket.
I hope you are right about Brat.
He has a plenty long paper trail (at least the right guy sits on stage-right, ignoring the ignoramus on stage left).
Hopefully, Brian Kirwin is wrong about him.
He’s mostly on with Greta. I turn the channel when his fat azz is on. Ailes isn’t getting the hint yet.
“Missed it by that much.”
Can they hear us now?
Paul Ryan for Speaker? They don’t have a clue just how f$%&*- up they are. Unreal.
I think I will celebrate by sending a nice donation to McDaniel to help boot the southern fossil Chamber Cockran.
