These are GOP votes that we are losing.


It really didn’t help when the GOPe alienated the conservative base by calling us “racists.” Who could have guessed?

That is certainly true. Check my tag line. Nevertheless the Dems are pursuing a split the GOP vote strategy and they are not above funding Libertarian and “Independent” candidates in order to save their majority in the Senate. I don’t think we should be supporting that plan.

My view, certainly not universal here at FR, is that achieving a Republican majority in the Senate is our highest priority in this election cycle. Many others feel that we have to vote on principle and cannot, therefore, support any candidates that don’t meet our FR conservative standards. Not me. I believe it is “hold your nose and vote GOP” time this November.

“Hold your nose” will give us a GOPe led Senate. I’m not happy with that but it beats one led by Harry Reid. Anyone who tries to make the case that there is no difference is, IMHO, simply wrong.
