> “one more vote against real problem-solving.”
Boy, is *that* “hooey on a stick”.
Harry Reid has not even permitted consideration of ANY federal budget for FOUR YEARS, demanding continuing resolutions from the House or else, “It will be the Republicans’ fault if the government shuts down!”, knowing that the MSM will parrot that big lie.
Conservatives, *real* conservatives, have been kept out of power since Barry Goldwater, with a “one-two punch” of radical leftist Democrats and anti-conservative RINOs, who do everything in their power to betray and undermine the conservative agenda.
Back then, the RINOs were called the “country club Republicans”, who *preferred* Republicans being the minority party, because they totally embraced “social liberalism”, even if they personally disdained Democrats for being crude and unhygienic.
They will always support radical leftists before they will support conservatives.
Finally, conservatives realized that they would keep winning battles while always losing the war if every time they were close to getting their agenda through, the RINOs would betray them. The only way to end this nightmare was to slowly and systematically purge the RINOs from the positions of power they cling to and elective seats they buy with their personal wealth.
And this technique is working. One at a time, the entrenched RINOs are finally being pried from the seats they “bought and paid for”. And it’s not all victories, either. It is a process.
But with every one of them that goes down, the closer America is to *real* “problem solving”, by tearing down the socialist apparatus, slashing the size and power of the federal government, redeeming and renewing what made America powerful and efficient.
And setting “progressivism” back a hundred years or more.
Freshmen on the Hill now know that leadership isn't their only path to re-election -- that they have financial muscle backing them up (they are less susceptible to threats by the entrenched political establishment to fall in line and vote how they're told to vote or that someone less rigid will be financed by the party to run against them in the next election).
