"Dick, screw the primary voters! Just run a write-in campaign - Mitt, Reince, and the NRSC will back you 100%!"

I’ll be a traitor and work for you! You can trust me, because you know I’m a traitor! And I will never betray my new friends like I did my old friends!
You’ve nailed it. Lugar has coasted for so many years that he’s forgotten how to campaign. He’s also surrounded by a senior staff who have been with him for 20-plus years. That, btw, speaks well of him as a senator and a boss; he’s a gentleman, not one of the jerks. As he’s aged, he’s also burrowed more and more into the Foreign Relations Committee, which is fine except that it does nothing for him politically.
George Bush should probably have made him Secretary of State and let someone a generation younger take the seat.
Next we will be reading about how he called Arlen Specter for advise!
Still, Romney couldn’t win on his own. He got all these same limp-wristed people behind him, then decimated his opponents with money to get ahead. And I’ve no doubt that he was behind the Cain business and that he was manufacturing votes in the big cities in the industrial states to push him over the top.
I’m still not voting for Romney and I’m not voting for Brown here in MA.
If Romney does win, it will be the last hurrah of the moderates. We know their tricks now and grass roots people are taking over the machinery in state after state (thank you Ron Paul)
True.. He seems like someone who has a lot of personal class. But he's had some judgment breakdowns, the greatest of which in recent years was that "aye" vote he cast for ratification of "New START" during the nightmarish two months of the 2010 lame-duck session.
Go to your room; both of you.
Very doubtful that'll be an issue in November. Romney will be conceding before the West Coast is done voting. It won't be close.

You missed a chance at “...do dumb deeds.”
Save him? Thirty-six years of perqs in DC have given Lugar a very skewed opinion of his self-importance. Indiana, throw this jackass out of the Senate Tuesday.
I am convinced now - more than ever - that there should never be such a thing as a 'six-term Senator'... of any party. Shoulda been max'd out at two terms... and maybe three for the House.
Wow..are you kidding me? Is this statement for real? When and where did he say this?
What a bigoted, sexist and racist thing to say.
I mean..I was shocked when he gushed all over Sotomayor for SCOTUS..but this is like purposely trying to set yourself on fire. He really has lost it.
Very.
Can't trust anybody
He is disgusting.
This is one of the RNC sh1tbags we need to get rid of.
No Balls Boner would be nice to see his ass kicked out too.
