After listening to all the bitching during the years of BHO’s first reign I thought it’d be a given that conservatives would go out and vote in record numbers. I’ll never forget the disbelief I felt the night he was re-elected.

Hate to say this but its a huge win for Obama. He steamrolled the GOP big time. But then again, that’s no great feat. Anyone could do that.

This will give the steamroller new momentum. Drudge says it all.

MERCY!

Are you saying you think Mitt Romney is evil?

I’m not excusing anyone. I’m advocating that my friends here make good plans to be successful in the new paradigm that is coming. Successful to me does not mean going out in a blaze of glory until they pry my dead hands off the weapon. Success means being successful financially, morally, and psychologically. Best wishes!!

I don’t care how much of a Rino Romney might have been. You know he would have been better for this country than what we have now surely!

I don’t know that. He took 3 positions on every issue, he lied about being a conservative.

How do I know anything he would have done as President?

Can’t trust him on anything.

Yes, I live in Cantor’s district. I’ve been disappointed in him.

Hmmmm.....?

What is this Constitutional “...right to DEMAND changes...” to which you refer?

Our Constitution assumes that votes on complex issues will be preceded by negotiations, but there is no Constitutional requirement for our legislature to “negotiate” in good faith. Or otherwise. How could there be?

I am very interested to learn what you mean by your phrase “...won’t fight an engaged battle...” and your phrase “There NEVER was a real battle over Obamacare in the CR.”

By the phrases “...battle...” and “...real battle...” do you mean something PHYSICAL, like the pushing, shoving and punching we see on film-clips from other countrys’ legislatures?

Or do you want to see duels at 20 paces in the Capitol Building? I should hope not.

However, if you REALLY meant to say, “...won’t fight back, using the Alinsky-tactics that the Democrats have mastered: demonizing, isolating, lying, denying, smearing, diverting, etc....”, then you and I are not far apart.

I believe the Tea Party can not save America if we send ill-equipped troops into “battle” with the Democrats. Our spokesmen must be quick on their feet with relevant statistics and entertaining “sound-bites” on the tips of their tongues.

For example, we know that Senator Cruz is a brilliant debater and that Senate Minority Leader McConnell is not. It follows that Senator Cruz would be the better “face” and “voice” of Senate Republicans. It follows that Senator Cruz should be in the public eye AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE as we approach the next fake ObamaCrisis. Let’s encourage that!

Finally, everyone knows that Democrats really want to demoralize Tea Party patriots before the 2014 elections, because their vote-suppression tactics appear to have worked so well in the 2012 election.

And here we find you, posting on FR, apparently joining in the effort to demoralize Tea Party patriots before the 2014 election. Here you are, helping the Democrats destroy America.

Just sayin’.

Don't worry about B$on$er. Someone has promised him big $$$$ to work on K street if his congressional career goes 'poof'. With very few exceptions in DC, it's all about $$ and power...principles and character are for losers.

Don't think Cruz has any intention of retreating.

Good!

Thanks for the links.

I’d like to hear more from Sarah Palin, too.

This rat bastard needs to have his speakership taken away. Is there any chance this bill will pass in the House?

I think Allen West would have made a way better speaker than this clown Boehner. Then again, the Republican wimps elect people who are weak and let the Democrats walk all over them.

Facts don’t matter in politics and polls. That has been proven a billion times.

Couldn’t agree more. The generals did not want to fight. Yet the troops still ran in. Now we are where?
