Mitch McConnell draws the line in the sand for TP

[birddog]

Kentucky remains a Border State and as such is neither red nor blue. It will be interesting if the radical TP is able to defeat McConnell and then lose the general election to a moderate - maybe a blue dog - Democrat.

Idiots.

Remember 2010? The worst ass-kicking in Congressional History? Remember who put that ass-kicking on dimocrap scum?

The Tea Party.

Know why the Tea Party was ineffective in 2012? The illegal and criminal use of the IRS to illegally and criminally harass them.

Big mistake. They'll be back stronger than ever next year.

Count on it.

Republicans take another 25 seats in the House and between 12 and 15 Senate Seats.

The end of obama's presidency.

dimocrap scum are shitting bricks everywhere.

All 15 dimocrap senators that are up for re-election made a deal with the scumbag in chief yesterday. They're scared shitless. The deal is that they can criticize obamacare but that they won't call for a delay. LOSERS!!

There are five (5) more dimocrap scum that are retiring and one (1) appointee position is up for grabs.

Twenty-One (21) dimocrap seats in all. dimocraps will EASILY lose between 12 and 15 of those spots.

I hope you are correct, but I am expecting about half of that which will be a big improvement. In the next couple of elections, I expect many democrat voters and some independents to stay home.

2010 was then. The Tea Party has been slipping in the polls regularly. Every poll out there shows the Tea Party's popularity has sharply regressed and in some polls, to their record lows. Also the Tea Party didn't add to it's success much since 2010.
In the end, the country's voters have moved towards a more moderate position as the last election demonstrated where moderates were the largest voting bloc. They have seen the extremes and they don't like it.

Agreed...It seems the TP is determined to make the GOP another "also ran" party. Maybe Mitch will begin a movement to stop this seemingly never ending story.

Act 1- TP dislikes GOP person because is not not conservative enough

Act 2- TP pushes and gets nominated a far right TP candidate in primaries

Act 3- The Dem, who wouldhave lost to a moderate Repub beats the TP loon in the General.

I mean, you don't have to be a Rocket Scientist to figure this one out. Look at Virginia. The moderate Lt Governor Bolling could have won, but the TP pushed the Cooooch through the primary.....

No they didn't.

The primaries were canceled in Virginia so that people couldn't vote for Bolling, Cuccenilli was hand-picked. They canceled the primaries and nominated him at a "convention".

Add the fact that Obama knew people would lose their insurance as far back as 2010 and willingly and knowingly lied about it in order to win an election and pass the monstrosity will in no way help any Democrat running in any election between now and 2016. Even his lapdog media won't run cover for him anymore.

 

[WorldWatcher]

I see the left wing spin machine is strong in this thread.

The first "spin"..... Cuchinelli would have and should have won Virginia except for the fake Libertarian running on Democrat money. As it was, a mere 2.5% of the votes gave the Seat to the Democrats.

Wrong, do some research on the exit polling instead of repeating a talking point.

In 2005 & 2009 respectively the in the VA gubernatorial race the "L" candidate drew 0.3% and 0.5% respectively. In 2013 Sarvis drew 6.5%. Why, because people didn't really like either candidate.

Now, the exit pollings shows that 2:1, without Sarvis in the race, voters would have voted for McAuliffe over Cuccinelli. McAuliffe won with 48% of the vote, Cuccinelli lost with 45.5% of the vote. With out Sarvis in the race McAuliffe would have had 52% and Cuccinelli would have had 47.5%.

McAuliffe would have won by a larger margin.




BTW - I'm a Virginia Republican and voted for Cuccenilli (although I'd have Bolling in the primaries if the GOP hierarchy had allowed us to vote).

Mitch McConnell draws a line in the sand for the Tea Party « Hot Air

“The most important election yesterday wasn’t the governor of New Jersey and it wasn’t the governor of Virginia, it was the special election for Congress in South Alabama, where a candidate who said the shutdown was a great idea, the president was born in Kenya, and that he opposed Speaker Boehner came in second.” The victory of a more electable Republican, is significant, Mr. McConnell says. To govern, parties must win. To win, parties must “run candidates that don’t scare the general public, [and] convey the impression that we could actually be responsible for governing, you can trust us—we’re adults here, we’re grown-ups.”

Mitch finally is telling the TP leaders to SHUT UP! Now the TP will go after him with a vengeance. Yup, they will push another loon through the Primaries and the Dems will pick up another seat.

This script is playing out again and again.

That pussy philosophy sure worked well for Mitt and McCain

Well, that's a good pipe dream.
Obama won't be running ever again. The Dems can and probably will claim , like America, they weren't told the truth. Trust me, the Dems will seperate themselves from "O", while who are the Repugs going to separate themselves from regarding the shutdown they were so proud of,,,, before the polls came out.

Doesn't matter the method. The Baggers pushed their extreme candidate into the nomination. They will continue to do that and the loons they push will lose in the General.

 

[g5000]

The Tea Party machine chose not to throw any money at the Alabama Tea Party candidate. That is why he lost. He must have been too crazy even for the Tea Party.


In Virginia, Cuccinelli led in the polls for the first half of the year. He snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

You HOPE that but don't expect it. The numbers are running against the GOP. They know it and are desperate.

 

[eagle1462010]

Alas, Mitch is a target of the Tea Party. So he draws the line against them................

Spare me the drama of it all, as Mitch did jack squat during the Shutdown which is why he is defended by the Wacko Dems. Strange Bed Fellows these days. The Status Quo of Big Gov't doesn't want their POWER questioned by anyone, thus the attacks.

The Tea Party must have hit a RAW NERVE ENDING which means they are doing something right.

Exactly, we saw this with Romney. The far right wing pushes for strong positions in the primaries that "lock the candidate in" - such as signing a commitment to push for a Constitutional Amendment to ban Same-sex Marriage. That gets some support during the primaries to get the nomination, but then when you get to the general election that is used against them to sway the 20% of the voters that really decide the election away from that candidate.

Explain to me how pushing an extreme candidate into the nomination, the result being the loss of the Governorship in VA is "doing something right"?

If you do something right, aren't you supposed to actually "win"?

[MACAULAY]

A fair sum of left wing loons are in this thread telling the GOP how to manage its Tea Party.

The left wing media has been in a heat to "define" the Tea Party as little more than a modern Ku Klux Klan, and it has worked beautifully, at least in the minds of loonies who get their news from Rachael Maddow.

But, the Tea Party is the Heartland of America which still believes in Jeffersonian ideas like individual striving, self-reliance, smaller central government , balanced budgets. They think the profit incentive
had something to do with this country becoming the greatest society thus far seen on this planet.

Sometimes, while standing on principal instead of reading lessons from Machiavelli, they make tactical mistakes, like demanding that Right be done now...when Right didn't have the votes yet.

But, they are a real force...and they are seething over the fact that our President has been calculatingly lying for several years over these insurance policies; and then twisting the knife by insinuating that these people are too stupid to be left alone to pick their own insurance policies.

The man is a Liar....and now everyone knows it. He is toxic.

And the 2014 Election is going to be a bloodbath for Democrats.

Just my opinion.

 

[JakeStarkey]

The GOP is wising up to the Dem crap lines. They have done some serious homework on what works and how to counter it. The "Tea party Nutjob" line won't work anymore. How do you call someone in favor of individual choice, lower taxes and less regulation a nutjob? The opposite is the case.

The "Tea party Nutjob" works just fine for mainstream Republicans as well as Dems.

You guys are gone, The Rabbi.

The MSM is the spokesperson for the Democrat Party. Any Republican who wins usually wins in spite of the Lies, distortions, and biased reporting of the media.

Several studies have given some evidence that if it were not for the illegal actions of the IRS, the Tea Party would have had enough influence and money to not only have taken over the Senate, but to elect Romney.


The Lefties can spin all the lies they want.. We know the truth.

The teapocrap is strong in this one.

Cuccenilli supported individual choice for women in terms of abortion and individual choice for same-sex couples for Civil Marriage?

When did this occur?

You had the same idiotic reaction when you were told that we would take 63 Seats in the House and 6 seats in the Senate, too.

idiot.

Remember to wipe the drool off your face

No, I didn't. I knew since mid 2009 that the Republicans were going to sweep the 2010 elections. You, on the other hand, haven't gotten a fucking clue. I do think the GOP will do well next year, but if you think they are going to win 12 to 15 Senate seats you're the one who needs to stop drooling you ignorant tard. Not since 1932 has any party ever accumulated that many wins in the Senate and that was 12. The GOP never managed to win that many in either of the Reagan landslides, in 1994, and only won six in 2010.

Now go back to sucking Rush Limbaugh's cock and shut the fuck up.

You fail to see what really happened there. This candidate took on the Democraps, the GOP, Obama, Hillary and others...............The GOP refused to support him.

He got attacked from ALL SIDES....................and still NEARLY WON THE STATE.................The only reason for the loss, DIRTY TACTICS from the left. Pushing a third party candidate that was supposed to be a libertarian, who was nothing more than a democrap hack................

Which is the only reason for the loss....................Yet you don't see that do you.........
