“Funny, but I think a lot of you other states would be willing to replace your Republican Senator with Roberts.”
That’s very true. But the point is to elect as many conservative senators as possible IN EVERY ELECTION CYCLE, not just give senators a pass because they have an “r” next to their names.
Do the names Jim Jeffords, Arlen Specter, Lisa Murkowski ring a bell? When push comes to shove, these types assist the democrats and work to thwart conservatives. And these long in the tooth types like Roberts become Thad Cochran, Ted Stevens, John Warner, Richard Lugar, Orrin Hatch, etc., who will provide a vote when the democrats need one for cloture, etc. because they worked together for 20 or 30 years and have become friends.
The US Senate is a legislative body, not a comfortable club for the aristocrats. I want conservatives elected, and will do whatever I can, wherever I can, to remove those who have over time voted poorly, and Roberts is one of them.
Since Roberts voted with Cruz and 16 other Senators to not extend sequestration during the phony government shutdown, he earned my vote, unless someone can show me enough negative votes to change my mind.
