My money says that should this RINO be defeated in the primaries that he’ll pull a Murkowski.

“has $2.3 million in his campaign war chest”

And what promises did he make and to who to amass such a sum, and was it given to shape legislation (he is for sale), to curtail legislation (nice business you gots here, shame if some government regulation were to happen to it), or dutifully paid by those who already agreed ideologically with his position (assuming he HAS an ideology beyond his own reelection).

Well?

Really, why do these men past the age of 75 keep running.

It must be the only way they can get laid.

How popular is this old fossil? Does he have “fans” ?

Don't know about the fans, but the RATS didn't even run against him a candidate last election. Election before, If I am right, Lugar beat the rat by 80%.

IMO, he’s a decrepit old insider, and what’s left of the Democrats in Indiana can’t be in love with him, either. Can they be?

No, apparently they distrust him and regard him as a phoney liberal. Totally Weird. He has proved over and over that he is for globalist treaties ending our sovereignty. Which means it is time for the Tea Party to Take Lugar Down. DUMP LUGAR! I will pay substantial bucks for a true conservative.

Lugar, who has served six terms in the Senate, has $2.3 million in his campaign war chest, which likely puts him far ahead of any potential primary challengers

Really? O'Donnell raised $3 million in a couple of days from the tea party. I think we'll have a well funded challenger to bag this RINO trophy.

"Contrary to what the name would imply, the Business Insider is a liberal publication. It usually features some ugly woman bashing Sarah Palin."

I know her...It's Glynnis MacNicols, I fight with her there every day.

Every article she writes has an conservatives name in the title and I taunt her that if she didn't, no-one would read her garbage.

I find your remarks, so near to each other, to be humorous.

If Luger loses the primary and continues on to the election as an independent he is a bad sport and pulling a Murkowski.

If Luger wins the primary, the Tea party guy who lost should continue on to the election as an independent and he is a good sport a stand up guy who is doing right?

Whose ox is being gored I imagine....

This guy was Nixon’s favorite mayor 40 years ago. He has had his chance. This is a chance for somebody new to step up. That somebody needs to a little more attuned to modern times. Goodbye Dick.
