    Is it possible to be the anti-establishment candidate in a Republican primary for the U.S. Senate and be the choice of the Republican establishment in your state at the same time? By definition, this would seem impossible. Yet, State Senator Joni Ernst has managed to be the establishment backed, anti-establishment candidate in Iowa’s Republican U.S. Senate primary. Iowa’s Lt. Governor Kim Reynolds was an early endorser of Ernst’s campaign, and Governor Terry Branstad has reportedly been helpful behind the scenes, especially in the fundraising department. Ernst has also been backed by national Republican establishment figures like Mitt Romney, Sen. John...

    A conservative group is launching a radio ad challenging Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell to oppose any money for President Barack Obama’s health care law even if it means triggering a government shutdown. The Senate Conservatives Fund is spending nearly $50,000 on the 60-second commercial that will begin airing on Tuesday in Kentucky, where McConnell is locked in a tough race for a sixth term. The GOP leader faces both a primary rival, businessman Matt Bevin, and a Democratic foe, Secretary of State Alison Lundergan Grimes. “Republicans in Congress can stop Obamacare by refusing to fund it, but Senator Mitch...

    As the election season heats up, one Senator is trying to raise $200,000 to support the campaigns of "strong Republican" candidates. Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), head of the political action committee, the Senate Conservatives Fund, is aiming to raise the funds within the next two weeks to help pay for phone banks, voter mail and radio and television advertising to elect candidates endorsed by the group, according to a solicitation e-mailed this weekend to potential contributors. "It's not enough to just be a Republican," DeMint said in a statement. "We need to elect the right kind of Republicans -- principled...
