The Republican leadership is lowering expectations about what they'll do if they take the Senate in 2014.
This makes me so sick. They know we're voting against Obama and his cronies because we hate what they are doing to our country, and the GOP is our only legitimate option right now. So they can pull this crap, even before the election is over, because they know conservatives have no alternative but to vote for them.
Don't want the Dems racing the country to facism at 100 mph? Oh well, then you have to support the GOP -- sure, we're driving towards facism, too, but only at 50 mph.
I really am nearing the point where I cannot stomach having the people that I voted for do this to me and my country. I know that not voting for the GOP means I'll get facism faster and rougher, but getting screwed is still getting screwed, and I'd rather not lend my consent or support to the people screwing me.

They are capitalizing on a well-believed lie — there is no such thing as a vote against in our [election] system, only a vote for.
and the GOP is our only legitimate option right now.
No, they aren't; so what if voting Constitution Party, or Libertarian, or American Ammo Party won't win — to call them the only legitimate option
is to concede to them that pushing unacceptable candidates [like Romney or McCain] legitimizes that candidate. The election clearly repudiated that: the failure to motivate the Republican's base proves that the GOP stamp doesn't suddenly make the unacceptable electable

Coryn is blowing smoke here. The GOP leadership is fine with the kenyan taking all the heat and doing executive action amnesty.
The first order of business for the GOP after the election is to fund the obama agenda. Then they will give us a bunch of fake “opposition” after obama cashes his check.
Get ready for a lot of “we have to wait until we get the White House” from the beltway GOP.
