I agree. Its hard not to notice that Christie is all about himself. He should’ve been walking on the beach with Romney not Obama. He should’ve been out there campaigning for Lonegan not trying to maintain a bromance with Booker from afar. I can’t think of one GOP candidate that Christie has helped and stuck his neck out for. Romney to his credit did that over and over again even for Tea Party candidates. Christie is going to find himself very lonely if he doesn’t start looking beyond himself and what’s good for him politically. His behavior to this point makes it impossible for me to even consider him. I can not support a candidate that is acting as a party of one.

Are you burning a bridge by calling out those who would backstab you again when the time was right?
Tea Party Conservatives cannot depend on the Republican Party. Period.
To: Zhang Fei
Are Cuccinelli's advisors burning his political bridges and making fresh enemies by blasting away at Republicans whose help he might need for a comeback?Why would he care. The Republicans have just joined forces with the Democrats FULLY and declared war against anyone who will not pass socialist, communist, fascist and amnesty legislation.

Sure. Blame us. Blame the people who never saw ONE mailout or heard or saw ONE ad. I heard last minute ads for E.W. Jackson and Mark Obenshain, but NEVER heard a Cuccinelli ad during the entire campaign. . . .
When most people keep hearing that Ken was EVIL INCARNATE (Literally McAuliffe and allied mailing claimed he’d outlaw all birth control, and jail women who miscarry. . . ), and zero pushback from the Cuccinelli campaign. . .

Christie is all personality- if he were a food item he’d be a jumbo package of Sugar Babies, much like the Kenyan.

It's quite possible that he has spent his entire career riding the political coattails of someone further up the food chain. And when he ran out of coattails to hold on to, he crashed. Just because someone shares our views doesn't mean he has political talent or charisma.

They are telling it like it is and it is the old RNC that needs to become extinct.

If he ever wins office it will be in spite of these people.

Airing your dirty laundry vis-a-vis senior party figures in public burns bridges and doesn't advance your political career. If the RNC and the RGA are pulling money on conservative candidates in winnable elections then it is certainly important to "air" the problem.

“Cuccinelli went through trial by election, and was found wanting. Superior politicians anticipate everything, look for ways to respond effectively within their resource constraints and find a way to win. “
Are you Jindal or Preibus ?

You are unbelievable with your rationalizations.
Both the RNC and apparently the RGA underfunded the Cuch campaign. Please stop with the excuses.

You could be a spokesperson for Tokyo Rove for all we know.

The first time a member of the Virginia chamber of commerce complains about the policies of Mcawful they should be slapped in the face. They helped elect the scumbag.

You are unbelievable with your rationalizations. Both the RNC and apparently the RGA underfunded the Cuch campaign. Please stop with the excuses. We can go back and forth about who's making the excuses all the day long. At the end of the day, it's Cuccinelli who's returning to the private sector. McAuliffe probably got a blank check from the DGA because he is a longstanding Democratic party bigwig and had lots of favors to call in. Cuccinelli is personally a good guy and I agree with his entire political platform. But he's no Terry McAuliffe - it was always going to be tough for Cuccinelli because of McAuliffe's experience, resources and political savvy. Sleazeball he might be, but a politically-skilled sleazeball.

In addition to his message Reagan had a capable political organization he brought with him from California. He didn't rely on the GOP nearly as much as Cuccinelli was forced to.
That was and will be the only way for a conservative to prevail over the RINOs.

Quite a few GOPe trolls posting on here with these kind of articles since Tues. They are so predictable. Notice this one responded first to an article he posted.
