Perhaps instead of rating individuals, we should rate the conservative nature of the party, don’t you think?
Seeing how votes are whipped, and nothing ever passes that actually slows down the government agenda, why are we rating votes that don’t matter and have no consequence?
Have you ever heard of safe no votes? These are the things that let people pretend that they are conservatives.
And then some stupid website compiles the ratings of pretend conservatives as if they matter at all.
What is the conservative rating of the GOP? Let’s measure it, let’s come up with a number based on actual achievement and advancing of the conservative agenda.
I’m going to go with 0%.
How about you?
“Perhaps instead of rating individuals, we should rate the conservative nature of the party, don’t you think?”
I agree. But you don’t make the party more conservative by electing Chamber of Commerce Republican globalists like Rogers. You make it much more liberal.
We’ve spent years getting rid of globalists like Lugar, Bennett etc. Now in a fit of fury, certain Republicans who should know better are stuffing the party with globalists again.
You and I are usually in agreement. But this Huelskamp defeat does not serve our cause at all. Marshall is precisely the kind of people we’re trying to get rid of that keep the GOP from unapologetically pursuing a Conservative agenda.
