“For a couple of races like Boehner, we need to vote for the Democrat to remove them as well as teach them a lesson. They are basically dems anyway and giving up a seat or two would be worth it.”

Yes......... yes...... yes.... I agree. Once out of congress, they normally don’t come back.

My mother (God rest her soul) always said that the primaries were way more important than the general election. Fewer people vote, etc. I’m preaching to the choir here. But we need to be more organized. It’s difficult when we’re fighting Dems and our GOPe in most cases. Get out the vote is difficult.

Even here in Wiscosnin, how is our terrific Gov. Scott Walker received by the GOPe? He’s a rock solid guy but I’ll bet Bonehead and no chin Mitch don’t want him around. We sure like what he’s done for Wisconsin.

“I wonder how many stupid articles like this were written in 1775 talking about those crazy rebels against the crown?”

Lots and lots..... it’s amazing we won that war for our freedom. Not enough is taught about that topic.

In Brian Kilmeade’s book “George Washington’s Secret Six” there were lots of references to citizens that were loyal to the King and those that wanted freedom.

First of all, I don't accept the premise that Tea Party adherent are "far right."
Second, I have supported the Tea Party philosophy from the beginning, and I'm a lifelong registered Democrat.
I am not the only one.

Third, "Independents" can be Tea Party" supporters, too, nothing to prevent that.

And finally, if the GOP doesn't perform by election day, I am voting for Putin as a write in candidate.

And the brain-dead GOP will STILL not get it!

Isn’t that really a sad commentary of 59% of Republicans.
