INDIANAPOLIS -- U.S. Sen. Richard Lugar said he doesn't intend to campaign for the man who defeated him in Indiana's Republican primary.

Lugar said Sunday on CBS' "Face The Nation" that he would not actively campaign on behalf of GOP senatorial nominee Richard Mourdock. The state treasurer will face Democrat Joe Donnelly in November.

Using ‘RINOS’ for POS like Rove/Lugar is being too polite! The Rove/Bush/Republicans are actually full fledged enemies of individual freedom and US Sovereignty! These are the tools of the One Worlders/CFR/UN/Eussr/BilderBs.
Romney is part and parcel and only slightly less damaging than the Progressive Left.

I remember that scumbag Chrissie Whitman, the “Republican” governor of New Jersey and her bagman getting involved in a race in Virginia to actually help the Democrat defeat Colonel Oliver North. Can’t remember what office was involved. Senator or Governor, I think.

I can’t remember the name of her bagman either. He was a wealthy guy who was a former Democrat, then decided to get involved in National Republican politics so Americans could choose from column B or Column B in elections!!

Lugar will try and help pass the UN LOST treaty after the election and during the lame duck session. Similar to when he advocated pushing through the New Start treaty with Russia last lame duck.

Globalist pushing an agenda.

Reminds me of McCain. He has $9million left from 2008 election. Is donating it to his new global concerns charity. Will not use it to help Republicans win race.

Sour grapes from Lugar... obviously if he'd prefer the Dem beat his own party's nominee if he isn't it, he deserved to be oustered.

Will Mitch Daniels campaign for Mourdock?

Given his age and his neglectful interaction with his constituents back home, Richard probably needs a nap after that primary push.

Dick Lugar. US Senator since 1977. Sore loser since since this month. Goodbye.

"He is the perfect example of why we desperately need term limits,"

We have it: it's called "the vote". Just because the representitives the majority vote for not your 'favs' you cannot deprive the dummies of their right to representation.

That would be true if seniority wasn’t the benchmark the senate and house used for committee chairmanships. Having a state with all long term sitting congressman and senators can favor how much influence that state has compared to other states.

I will gladly vote out my favs every two terms if it means rotating out the others as well.
