Sorry, I can’t feel the same about the masses of ignorant sheeple. I think they have “Stockholme syndrome”

A year from now is a lifetime in politics.

Correct. ‘Conventional Wisdom’ from political pundits (especially those affiliated with inside the beltway DC) is fickle, shallow and does not stand up to time nor reality. It carries the same value as a bucket of cow sh!t.

At this point it’s all bluster, but this sort of thing does provide cover for massive vote fraud. We’re still a year away from a reckoning, but a reckoning there will be.

UNTIL THE MEDIA IS CONFRONTED WITH THEIR LIBERAL BIAS, NOTHING WILL CHANGE.

Tell a lie often enough - it gets accepted as the truth.

This is prepping the American mindset to accept what is being orchestrated and rigged to happen next November ala the Cook County Way of Chicago Thug Machine corruption gone national.

Don’t laugh. That machine went national. We will never again have an honest election cycle. It will now be nothing but a show to create an illusion.

The Party will now decide who is in power.

True. What’s really going to matter in 2014 starts next week, when the first hearings on the collapse of Healthcare.gov start up.

The problems being described are at least an 18 month fix. There’ll come a point when Obama realizes that he should have taken Cruzes very reasonable offer. Shortly after that he’ll have to publically admit that he should have, when he asks Congress to enact the delay so the system can be completely rebuilt.

LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE.

Anyone who believes this drivel is sitting on their brain.

They think they have killed the Tea Party .. when they have actually been re-vitalized.

If they think 2010 was bad .. I think (personal opinion not based on massive figures) 2014 is going to be a blowout. My only stat is the 81% who believe America is going in the wrong direction.

Michael Barone and Charlie Cook both say that there are only ten seats up for grabs.

Now those guys I trust.

God help us all if we lose the House in 2014, though. It will get very UGLY in the US...

It’s dumb. The election is more than a year away.

Besides, if the “GOP” loses, I’m not all that sad.

I’m inclined to vote for anything living that doesn’t have democrat or republican beside their name. Wonder if they can label themselves on primary ballots as Republican and Tea Party? :>)

If the GOP allows the illegals to become citizens and keeps sending jobs overseas, then the rats will run the ship.

The way things are going, it will seem like several lifetimes until the next debt showdown in January.

Thanks SoFloFreeper.
according to the betting at the Iowa Electronic Markets
IOW, even less important and less relevance than an-MSM sponsored poll.

Your question depends on the makeup of the district. What we need are more members with the courage shown by Cruz and Lee.

Any candidate you come across that persuades you they have the necessary courage should get full backing as long as they are not stupid, perverts or losers. What that means is they should have had prior vetting while running for another office and came out clean.

If you must vote for a moderate republican because that is the only thing available, then do what you must. The idea is to lessen the number of republican squish moderates. If all you have are a couple of moderates to choose from, choose the one that will be a follower and not someone that bucks conservatives as part of a game. Moderates can follow the leadership and we intend the leadership to be a strong courageous tea party conservative.

What needs to be done is to persuade your neighbors that the tea party candidate who has been vetted, who has shown strength and courage, who will not sell out, can be beneficial to the country.

You have to be a sales person and really hit hard on the benefits of conservative politics. One subject along this line is there are better ways in the healthcare market to improve access than to resort to government run healthcare which brings the standards down for everyone and drives quality doctors, nurses and medical staff away from the profession.

There is still considerable debate over whether the GOP actually has the House.
