Personally, I’d like to see Goiter-Neck’s horizons expanded to the realm of the chronically unemployed.

Exactly. Matt Bevin (McConnell's primary opponent) is the only one whom I have sent $$ this year.

We cannot pick primary opponents who come across as loony or are stupid enough to take the "rape" bait on an abortion statement.

But we can win with principled solid conservatives such as Rand Paul, Mike Lee and Matt Bevin.

The turd-le is whistling past the graveyard. His Gelded OLD Parasites attacked their base. His stupid party snatches victory for Shamnesty.

I hope he is right on that, but I hope for 2 things, 1) Matt Bevin wins in KY and 2) the 3 states will have Tea Party members elected.

Politicians like this piece of crap, should be hounded even after they lose.

I hope one day to egg him.

As far as I can tell, the GOPe has decided to double down on stupid and become more aggressive in attacking the tea party and pushing leftward.

Your principled conservative Rand Paul, is backing McConnell over the Tea-Party conservative Matt Bevin.

One of those three in your list does not fit as well as the other two.

I wouldn't get too excited about Minnesota aka North Cook County. The Democrats already have enough ballots marked and bagged to win. They just roll out the bags as needed.

They don't actually list candidates. They list the offices up for election and party. That's enough to satisfy Minnesota judges.
