Indiana’s own RINO, Obomba lovin’ Lugar is starting to whip up his 2012 conservative act.

He needs retirement.

I say let’s kick Lindsey Graham out of office first! But Olympia Snowe and Orrin Hatch will be in the air before he hits the sidewalk!

Unfortunately Graham isn't up for reelection until 2014. So the people of South Carolina are stuck with him until then. Hopefully they find a conservative to replace him with. Both Olympia Snowe and Orin Hatch are up in 2012

A year ago i would have said “fat chance” but after this years election up there I’d say it’s a pretty good shot.

Here in MA I don’t hold out much hope for Brown. I’m surrounded by complete retards.

"A poll conducted for the Daily Kos in August showed Senator Claire McCaskill (D-MO) with a 40% approval rating. Not great numbers for a senator running for re-election in a swing state full of strong candidates, such as former state Treasurer Sarah Steelman and Representative Todd Akin (R-MO)."

I could heartily support a run by Sarah Steelman here in Missouri. However the name of David Limbaugh who is still a Missouri resident is being floated on the Missouri Forum.

Senator Richard Lugar (R-IN) has served six terms and is at risk of a Tea Party challenge.

It is HIGH TIME for Lugar to be shown the door. He long ago wore out his usefulness.

Please Dear Lord, help to defeat Bob Casey Jr. in 2012.

I agree. Hopefully, Conservatives can put a strong candidate in the running that will call Casey out on his votes for health care and such. If they don't, we don't have a chance.

Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) ran as a strong pro-life Democrat, but backed ObamaCare and has been a reliable Democratic vote. A PPP poll this year showed Casey with a 31% approval rating. This makes him a prime target for any of the state’s congressmen.

Casey is a worthless mushmouth hanging on to the coattails of his dead father.

There was a Maine Tea Party rep on the radio (Howie Carr Show) ~3 months ago. He stated that the TP was already looking at potential YellowSnowe challengers.

I’d rather lose the seat than to send YellowSnowe back for another term. She sucks. Collins is maybe a hair better, not that that says much, but she’s in place until 2014.

Now there's an outstanding choice, if he made himself available.

Jeb Bush missed the boat in 2006 to unseat Bill Nelson.

It’s past time to “Retire” this entire group of losers.

Michigan's jr senator. "Dangerous Debbie"

She ought to be as vulnerable as any of them. Who'd be a good shot to defeat her?

Brown’s toast. Either Patrick or a Kennedy get that seat in 2012.

Jim "Born Fighting (0bama Loving)" Webb needs to go, too!

I like Thadeus McCotter or Pete Hoekstra. Candice Miller would be a strong candidate too.

>>> I say let’s kick Lindsey Graham out of office first!

You can say it but since Graham isn’t up for election until 2014, I’m pretty certain the 2012 election will have to be dealt with first.

We probably won’t be able to get rid of her and would need to find a good R candidate, but Maria Cantwell (WA state) is up for re-election in 2012, too. She beat Slade Gorton in 2000 (some suggested there was voting fraud).

I think I do remember that and it was certainly voter fraud. It’s impossible for WA to have an honest election

"Senator Sherrod Brown (D-OH) came into office on the strength of the Democratic wave of 2006 and the unpopularity of incumbent Senator Mike DeWine. However, a PPP poll this year showed Brown with a 32% approval rating. Incoming Lieutenant Governor Mary Taylor could be a good challenger, provided Governor-elect John Kasich is popular with Ohio voters."

Brown in Ohio has to go in 2012. I would be very, very surprised if he is not the most liberal Senator since 2006.

“Professional” Republicans see this as a negative. I see as the only thing preventing CWII.

***************************

I agree. CWII (CWIII really), or Soviet style dissolution. The latter may happen anyway, due to the fiscal malfeasance and derangement.

Anyway, the only possible way out is to purge these tapeworms out of the system.
