New tea party plank

[Cats Cats Cats]

You cannot be freakin serious. lol

I know right!  He should have said Pelosi and Reid.

[we vs us]

I'll acknowledge that the Dems have their own problems, but they have nothing to do with last night's primary results.  This is all about about who owns the GOP.  Over and over again, the base of the Republican party keeps voting against their own power structure.  It's literally like the political version of the Alien chest burster.



Karl Rove, btw, was the guy who said that O'Donnell's election lost the GOP a chance to retake the Senate.  Most of the rest of the criticism today has flowed from there.

Typical response.

Republicans don't campaign against their opponent, they campaign against Obama.

And lacking significant accomplisments of his own on the economy, President Obama still hauls President Bush out of the closet for a good flogging about once a week.

Rove needs to get over himself as well as the rest of the dinosaurs in the GOP.  They had a chance from 1994 to 2006 to show us what great stewards they could be of the assets they were entrusted with.  They failed.  They created an even bigger, money-hungry government while claiming to espouse smaller government and fiscal responsibility.  Sen. Scott Brown winning Sen. Kennedy's seat is all one needs in knowing there are no "sacred" seats in traditional GOP or Dem states.

Original reports said the NRSC would not support O'Donnell, that's been proven false as they've already dumped $42K into her campaign.

The National Republican Senatorial Committee is behind O'Donnell all the way, said its chairman, Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.), who added that the committee has already given her campaign a check for $42,000.

"Let there be no mistake: The National Republican Senatorial Committee - and I personally as the committee's chairman - strongly stand by all of our Republican nominees, including Christine O'Donnell in Delaware."

Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.), the House's No. 3-ranking Republican:


"I categorically reject that Christine O'Donnell cannot win in Delaware. This is a whole new world, we elected a Republican member of the Senate from Massachusetts."

How much of that is going towards her condo fees?

1/2 would be my guess

Well, you know, other than taking it from a steep decline to flat as a pancake. While that might not be where we'd like to be, it's certainly better than he found it.

Don't worry Nathan, I already adjusted my bar for this administration quite a bit lower a long time ago...

Harry Reid has now weighed in on this campaign. IMHO, Reid has gone from gaffe-tastic doosh to creepy old man:

I'm going to be very honest with you — Chris Coons, everybody knows him in the Democratic caucus. He's my pet. He's my favorite candidate," Reid said.

[Emphasis mine]

What I find nauseatingly amusing is the focus the press and some folks here have on Christine O'Donnell's history but give little notice to that idiot who has been indicted in South Carlolina running as a dem for a Senate seat.

I seriously think you got your JD from the Fox News School of Intermediate Rhetoric. 

I'm under no obligation, in a thread about the tea party, to find any sort of equivalence whatsoever between O'Donnell and dude-man from South Carolina.  And we can have an intellectually honest conversation about O'Donnell while not mentioning dude-man from South Carolina.  It doesn't make me a hypocrite, and it doesn't make what's been said about her suddenly null and void.  All it does is point out your inability to make arguments based on logic, rather than guilt by association. 

Next!
