Sadly, yes.

| That thought
referenced Cornyn sending
NRSC lawyers to Alaska to help Murkowski after she lost the
Republican primary. Now he's got the f__king gall to - and don't
think this is not what he's doing - to allude to Joe Millers possible
defeat at Murkowski's hand after she decided to run a write-in campaign !&% that was aided and
abetted by the Cornyns Regulars. It is my sincere hope that every
member of congress,
Republicans and Democrats, are challenged by a Teaparty
candidate in 2012. Most will not survive, and we'll be better off for
it. "most
electable" indeed. |

ReplyDeleteBeh, what's wrong with Cornyn now? He's been a pain on Obama's ass from the get go. We're really going to purge Republicans from office because they don't back people like O'Donnel? O'Donnel got frickin' killed, it wasn't even close, her race was pathetic.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that Murkowsi won by a write in makes it sound like Miller's pretty pathetic.
Texas aint getting rid of Cornyn, and I'm glad. He's Conservative on pretty much everything that counts, and the people who voted for him, the folks that matter, like him.
I'm speaking for myself Josh, which is what I do here, but yes. I want every Republican to take the acid test by running against a Teaparty mentality opponent. As for Cornyn, maybe some Texas people will agree with you, and they're who counts. What he did with Murkowski, as I see it, smacks of the same old GOP insider crap I'm sick of. Color Me Palin.
ReplyDeleteI'll abide the people's choice in a legal, fair election. As a contributor, I get emails from Joe Miller, and the goings on in that contest are reminiscent of the Franken fix. The Murcowski (friend of Cornyn and the Old Boys) team are giving the Dems a seminar in cronyism, lawyer/judge decided, brute force election fraud.
ReplyDeleteThat the Old Boys are still backing Mucowski (spelling doesn't count; just divine my intent)in the face of her shenanigans is telling. Also, given the Dem was a weak candidate, I suspect a bunch of Dems crossed over to vote for Merkuntski on the write in, which means she is a Leftist RINO in order for her to be acceptable to them. The latest stunt is refusing to give the Miller team the voter rolls in order to see if the vote count exceeds the number of registered voters, a strong possiblity given the unexpected burst of write ins. Fucking wonderful Cornyn. Thanks a lot.

Assuming the Tea Party keeps the pot hot, Cornyn is a good target in 2014. If the grand OLD party of professional politicians can unravel the ideals of Constitution driven decision making, RINO's and Demwits will have won. Cornyn will be right at home. And Murkowski will welcome him back.

The problem I have Josh is the go-along-get-along republicans that need to be hung from the lamp posts along with the dems.
ReplyDeleteI will never forget that republican that went on Rush that was a member of the gang of 7 or whatever when we had 59ish seats and he was like "we need to have progress, we need to get things accomplished" AAAAHHHHH NO WE DON'T! If progress means compromise, which is defined by us giving them what they want and us not getting what we want then shoot them all!!!
For crying out loud! We do not need electable idiots that sell us out. The country is conservative. The thing that we don't do well is get our message across. If you don't define what you stand for, your foe will. This is bad and why we are where we are.
Most electable? To whom?
ReplyDeleteMost electable, you know, like Cornyn favorites Arlen Specter and Charlie Crist. Good solid Republicans.
ReplyDeleteI don't want control of the senate as long as it is mostly populated by the Specter, Graham, Snowe, m-cowski, and others of their ilk. A narrow lead puts those losers in control. A wider lead (56 or more) and the ability of one or two senators to exert control is limited. If we had gotten four more GOP senators this time we still get liberal control of the senate, but GOP would get more of the blame.
