It amazes me that conservative Tennessee has this clown representing them as a republican. And conservative South Carolina with Lindsay Graham.

Whatever the conservative vetting process is, it really needs to be retooled.

As I've said before, not a week, or even a few days, go by where I don't come across more reasons why I no longer support the GOP. These elected officials are providing aid and comfort to our enemies, or pressuring Obama to do so.

There is no vetting process in TN. #1, we have open primaries which means Democrats can flood in and vote for the most liberal GOP nominee (as they have in 2002 with Lamar!, 2006 with Corker & 2010 with Haslam). #2, we have no runoff, meaning so long as you get 1 more vote than your opponent, no matter how low a % of the vote you get, you’re nominated. We’ve had general election nominees whom have gotten less than 20% of the vote in a primary.
