"It did raise a few eyebrows," admits Mr Rehr, chuckling. "When people looked at me - a Republican and a big supporter of this president - they sort of said: 'Hey, what's going on?' John Thune is a good friend of mine and I had to tell him we would be giving to Daschle, not to him. But it's nothing personal. It's more about trying to re-elect someone who has been with us on the issues.

Idiots like this will destroy the once conservative republican party; perhaps the conservatives of America need people in congress who will represent their views; I think I hate RINO's like this clown more than communist democrats like the liar Daschle. Has Daschile been with us electorate on the issues; I think not. O'vay, pain when I see the conservative party dying out.

Idiots like this will destroy

Don't you think that such "idiots" represent the majority of the Republican Party? Or just a small minority? Democrats used to call conservatives within the GOP "a minority within the minority."

This guy is not a representative of the electorate, or the "once conservative Republican Party" -- he's the representative of the National Association of Beer Wholesalers, and is concerned with advancing their commercial agenda. Apparently Daschle has voted for the interests of the NABW -- he has been there on THEIR issues.
