After declaring war on the Tea Party and often showing nothing but contempt for grassroots conservatives that powered Republicans to record gains in the 2010 midterm elections, Karl Rove whined that the GOP may not take back the Senate this year because of the lack of enthusiasm for his establishment-approved candidates.
Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Rove notes that even though Obama's "job approval numbers are lousy, no Democrat in a competitive Senate race polls regularly above 50%, GOP enthusiasm is high, and independents are trending Republican... each passing day provides evidence as to why a GOP Senate majority is still in doubt."
After declaring war on conservatives and the Tea Party last year, Rove now realizes that the very voters the establishment trashed are not donating to more moderate and establishment Senate candidates in states like North Carolina and Colorado. Rove says that "Republican candidates and groups must step up" to reduce the fundraising gap with Democrats. He said "Republicans must reach a certain sufficiency of advertising in the next six weeks" to "tip the needle in the GOP's direction."

We just had a litterbox thread basically pushing “Vote for the liberal RINO or the Dem will win” for near 800 plus posts.
It IS the same.
Only when the GOP is forced to stop this BS of attacking conservatives will things change.
And the only way to do that is to NOT reward them with our vote.
If you keep supporting any old POS they throw out there to us, they have absolutely NO impetus to change.
They fight the Tea Party harder than they ever fight Democrats and are stunned that the Tea Party doesn’t support them?
And these are the smartest people in the room?
I get several email requests a day to help take back the Senate. First, someone needs to give me a clear example of how the Senate will be any different with McConnell at head over Reid.
I don’t see a distinction being offered by the “We’’re better Democrats than the Democrats” Party.
Truly, I don’t see a distinction.

Where are your liberal supporters Rove the fraud?
Voting for a name without a substantial policy difference is meaningless. The Democrats wanted it, and so did the GOPe.
Pound Sand.
I can hear it from Rino doing the liberal bidding “it is the law of the land, it is just a tax, now surrender your guns”
You and I know Democrats do not want direct blood on their hands. They will use the R word for it just as all other non vetoed liberal votes coming to Bush’s desk.
It actualy is dangerous to have manchurian RINOs. Every step of the way they have sabotaged conservative languages.
We have to vote for the right language.
Blacks and the Tea Party people are each being treated the same by their respective parties. They expect obedience while getting abused by the leadership.
Blacks should abandon the Democrats, and the Tea Party should abandon the Republicans, for the same reason.
Is he still alive?
Suck it Karl!
I donate direct to the candidate of my choosing inside or outside my area. I will never give another dime to the republican party or any of Karl’s filthy little clubs. Boehner? Really? Pelosi’s bitch deserves money? For what exactly. If I wanted democrat policies I’d give to democrats. Not mush headed doormats like Boehner and McConnel.
Stupid is as stupid does...
Sorry Karl... wahh, wahh, wahhhhhhhh....
That would thrill the uniparty. They could rule uchallenged with their government-globalist elite agenda which would make things even worse.
Constitutional Conservative principles and keeping other minorities out of the US would do the black population more good than all of the pandering could ever do.
Karl Rove ranks No 1 of people who were on fire who I WOULD NOT Piss on to put out the flames. Fat, Disgusting SOB!
That election of Thad senile Cockroach was so crooked I am not voting this year in protest.
I would though like to see Joni Ernst win because we need to sweep out the dead wood and replace them with better people.
I don’t see the party funding her, and that tells me that they care more about hurting the Tea Party winners than winning the Senate.
Since I don’t live in Joni’s state all’s we can do is send her donations.
That would be because one or two of us shun the PACs of the GOP-wing of the Democrat party and donate directly to candidates that we support. We finally figured out that they consider us to be nothing more than sources of cash.
And I will make my claim once more.
We are not voting for the senate candidate again this year. In our state of NH we have a choice of Shaheen and Brown. Voting for bad is wasting my vote.
The Conservatives aren’t ticked off sufficiently yet. As the days go by and our freedoms are eroding the Conservatives sit around and complain but are unwilling to group together and do something about it. It’s a sad state to be in but until we are willing to give up our creature comforts, jobs, or family for freedom things will not change. Voting for the same kind of candidates with different letters after their name is futile.
I have been trying to rally folks in our area but there is always something that comes up where half don’t show and always have a lame excuse. I’m old and tired and I figure the pain mustn’t be sufficient to change anything.
A lot of these folks are right here on FR.
When some of you are ready to really change things, give us a hollar. If I’m still alive and kickin and people are ready for a fight, I’ll be on the front lines.
