Thad Cochran needs to lose in MS after the corrupt way that Haley Barbour (aka Boss Hogg) bought Democrat votes to take the nomination from McDaniels.
The GOPe must be taught that conservatives will not stand for such nasty treatment and will withhold their support in the general election when it occurs. To do otherwise, makes conservatives no better than Blacks on the Democrat plantation.
Yeah, what we need is a dim majority in the House and Senate. That way the dims can control what legislation, discussions, subcommittee makeup, nominees come before Congress.
That’ll show’em. /s
That dog won’t hunt anymore, son.
That sounds like extortion to me.
Sorry. Missed the sarcasm tag.
I buy what you’re selling, MB but the Supreme Court nominees the Obozo will come up with worries me greatly.
Blah blah blah. Voters have a right to decide who to support and who to retire. There’s no obligation to vote for anyone with an R next to their name. Those days are long gone because the party blew it.
Who gets to the Supreme Court will not be affected if we have 49 or 51 seats. We will always lose a gaggle of ‘reach across the aisle’ Republicans when it comes to nominations. Look who all voted for Kagan, who was nothing but a political plant.
51 is better than 49, but not be much. Hardly any legislation will pass either way. The only difference is whether items are even brought to committee and to the floor. The resulting legislation will not be substantially different. I’d like to see Reid retired from the Majority office, but I just as much want to see Cochran removed to make it clear those tactics will never be accepted again.
When was the last time the Republicans stopped any Supreme Court nomination? They should call themselves the ‘Rubber Stamp Committee”.
Seriously the US Senate is the most despicable, effete, pusillanimous legislative body in the history of mankind. At least Roman Senators faced assassination if they spoke out against the Emperor.
How are these pigs any different than the Soviets?
“When was the last time the Republicans stopped any Supreme Court nomination?”
Majority leader can stop every one of them, or anything else. They just don’t get voted on.
I wonder if we would be any worse off with a strong minority in the US Senate with a a few more friends for Ted Cruz instead of the backstabbers setting their agenda.
I didn’t vote for Tillis in the Primary but I certainly will in Nov. You do as you please.
The Republican party will stay an ‘Also Ran’ bridesmaid if we don’t unite.
Sitting it out in 2012 gave us another 4 years of Zer0 and Reid and look what a mess he’s got us in.
Are you gonna tell me Romney wouldn’t have done better?
He may not have hit all the points we want but you can bet your a$$ the economy would have been on the way to recovery, and we would be standing with Israel.
I am conservative and I am supporting Tillis. He has done a great job as house leader and the NC legislature has done good work for the conservative cause.
McConnell supported Reid's agenda with critical cloture votes. With the liberal republican senate leadership supporting and enacting the liberal agenda, I don't want them in the majority.
Remember McCain and the gang of 8? Even when the liberal republicans had a majority, they worked with the dems to enact the liberal agenda.
I hope the liberal republican party is politically destroyed.

And THAT is exactly why they keep sticking it to us. They KNOW that no matter what they do, the minions will schlep to the polls and “hold their nose” and vote out of fear.
This is what is going to happen in America. In 20 years, Conservatism and the GOP will be dead. There will be pockets to be sure, but we have one demographic and it is dying and NOT being replaced. Take our demographic out of the equation and America is radically Liberal across the Board. The only reason we hold the House is Gerrymandering. That’s it. No other reason. We MAY take back the Senate but that’s about a 55-45 proposition. And in 2016 we will be absolutely slaughtered in the Senate as the reverse happens ... GOP Senators up for re-election in blue States. We will lose 7-10 seats.
Our ONLY hope is to stand up, let the GOP take the beating now, and rebuild asap. When America is mega-Libtard you really think it’s going to vote for Dim-lite? We may lose in the end, but at least this way we go down swinging.
No. I am not just going to vote for another GOPe toady. I will never, ever vote Dim, but I’ll sure skip a few votes.
So what the Dims do is run out the clock until 2016 when they (100% guaranteed) get the Senate back, get rid of the filibuster entirely, and put a mega-Libtard in the Seat.
Very nicely said.
