It’s still early, so a lot can happen. But William Buckley had it right- we should nominate the most conservatives candidates who have a real chance of winning.
I wonder what impact a Hillary Clinton candidacy will have on the Senate races. Will the Democrat candidates for Senate embrace a corrupt Hillary, or run from her.
What about if the candidate is Sen. Bernie “the Socialist” Sanders?
McCain needs to go even if it means electing a real Democrat for 6 years. The Democrat in an R jersey has done more damage than any real Democrat.
I must be missing something.

I thought that the Sanoval in Nevada could take this race running away? Has he said he isn’t running?

The truncated version does not show the Ohio race of RINO Portman challenged by former Gov Ted Strickland. I believe the D will win due to Portman being totally ineffective and a sell-out to the D’s and GOPe.
He supports Gay marriage now that his kid came out of closet. He was one of the gutless who supported Loretta Lynch for AG. Just worthless...
BUT I hate to lose the seat. I wish someone would primary him.
I don’t have much hope for Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), and, truth be told, she doesn’t deserve to win.
Chuck Grassley will be 83.
Establishment Republicans, and even the semi-Libertarian Barry Goldwater, always seem to swerve Left as they age.
