Well, where will the GOP take a stand and fight? On what issue, and under what circumstances?

What does the GOP stand for nowadays?

I hope the ‘rats make great hay of this, so that maybe some of their (the RINOs, I mean) low-info constituency might get a clue.

Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader, and Senator John Cornyn of Texas, the Republican whip

You dirty rats. This proves you should BOTH be primaried right out of a job.

After the way that 98% of FR went for Mitt Romney, yes, that’s exactly what they think. With good reason.

If GOPers in Texas, Kentucky, and S. Carolina send those fools back to the senate, I hope to Christ to never hear any bitching from people in those states on anything ever again.
