This is idiocy.

I agree 100%! I am from NC and what you don't want to do is substitute a 100% liberal Democrat for an 88% conservative like Burr! Burr is the incumbent Senator that the Dems are most confident of being able to defeat, so why would you do something that makes that easier to do? I like Brannon and voted for him in the primary that current Senator Tom Tillis won, but I don't agree with weakening an incumbent Republican Senator because he is not perfect - especially in a year that the numbers favor the Democrats!

Say what?? Are you claiming that Burr is more likely to get defeated than the uber-RINO Mark Kirk of Illinois?? Stating whoppers like this makes me doubt your credibility.

By your reasoning, incumbents should never be challenged no matter how bad they are. This is the reasoning that has given us the current mess where the Washington cartel forgets everything they promised during the election and votes for the lobbyists and the big donors when they get to Washington.

A question: Do you think Juan McCain should be primaried in Arizona?
