Remember what we have stated about “tremors” and “twitches” that get overlooked by most media?  Yeah, well…

update-1UPDATE 11:30pm EDT Race Called !  Huelskamp Lost

tim huelskamp 5

(((snicker))) A July 15th Poll Release: showed U.S. Rep. Tim Huelskamp (+9) leading Republican primary challenger Roger Marshall, 47 percent to 38 percent.

However, one of Toxic Ted Cruz’s biggest republican advocates, Tim Huelskamp (Kansas), looks like he is about to lose lost his re-election bid with a primary challenge from Roger Marshall.

Tim Huelskamp is a rabid, VERY RABID, Trump hater.  He was one of the inner network republican house rep #NeverTrump antagonists, and a full-throated Ted Cruz supporter. A really nasty piece of work. – SEE HERE

Representative Huelskamp even advertised and promoted his hatred for republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.  A primary defeat tonight would portend some favorability toward the odds of a Paul Nehlen victory next week (Tuesday August 9th)....

Rush is too little too late... His head up Cruz and Rubio’s ineligible b-holes, destroyed Rush's credibility. Rush has some ‘personal, individual, accounting to do.

“A long time ago the NRA figured our the best form of politics is to punish your the people who backstabbing you by rewarding their foes even if they don’t agree with you.”

Like giving Harry Reid an A+ gun rating?

Hah! That's a common problem on the internet ... folks who assume that those who disagree with them are ignorant. WRONG! Maybe I know what going on, and just think you're mistaken. Has that possibility ever occurred to you?

Do you want to stick Trump with a super-majority of Democrats in Congress, presided over by Nancy Pelosi and Charles Schumer?

YOU'RE the one promoting the defeat of ALL Republican congressional incumbents.

Huelskamp’s defeat had little or nothing to do with Cruz. If you understood Kansas politics, you’d know there are THREE parties there: Democrats, (Conservative) Republicans and “Moderate” (Far-Left Socialist) “Republicans.” The latter has often had too much sway in the state and has elected left-wingers indistinguishable from national Democrats.

In fact, it was so bad in Kansas with their domination of state politics that the Democrat Governors were more Conservative than the “Moderate” RINOs. Other than for former Governor Bill Graves, a left-wing RINO, every Republican going back to the ‘60s never won reelection until Gov. Brownback broke the streak as the first Conservative GOP Governor in a half-century.

Back to Huelskamp, who came from the state legislature (Senate) before going to Congress in 2010, he was seriously targeted by the “Moderate GOP” left in the state (he had been an unapologetic Conservative, actually working on abortion issues and trying to put a stop to the gay marriage insanity by having it declared by the voters to be only as God declared it: Man and Woman). He beat one of theirs in the 2010 primary, but it was 2014 when the establishment left pulled out all the stops and backed a left-leaning nobody in the primary named Alan LaPolice, who got within a narrow 10% margin of Huelskamp.

Marshall merely filled the part LaPolice did 2 years ago, with the establishment running him as their puppet and pulling it off this time. At the same time yesterday, nearly a dozen solid Conservative legislators in Kansas were beaten by leftist-backed RINO puppets. Again, this was more internal state politics and had nothing to do with supporting Sen. Cruz. Those “Moderates” have zero use for Cruz and are more in line with Hillary than anyone else. It wouldn’t have mattered if Huelskamp had been outspoken or not for either Trump or Cruz, he’s been a target since before either ran for President.

He’s getting replaced by a left-winger regardless. But Tim is certainly no failure. Read my post #132.

Agree! But that just makes it all the more significant. When Rush, prominent supporter of Cruz and Rubio, says the GOPe is worried, pay attention. And he’s now saying it’s payback time for neverTrumpers.

Sounds like the GOPe is running scared.

Actually, it was Ted Cruz, that so called brilliant master debater that called Trump supporters '' low information' and ignorant... Perhaps you do know what is going on and you are part of the problem. I stumbled onto the US Catholic Bishops website during the Nanny the 'red' Pewlouise rule over our peoples house... Why it was just amazing how she followed their lead in every direction... Then along comes Boehner, and right out the gate as he cried through his taking the Speakership, declared that he was NOT going to change Nanny the 'RED's' rules... well duh, ... but you carry on puffing up yourself as the know it all.

Looks like we’ve already got the GOPe’s attention. See post 120.

Also see post 121...if you have a strong stomach.

Actually, I’m going to be voting for Marco Rubio’s primary challenger and Jeff Miller’s primary challenger.

Should they defeat those primary challengers, then they can look forward to not having my vote in the general, because they’ve done nothing to earn my vote.

If that action and/ or inaction results in democrat super majorities for Trump, then it would seem that I have a whole Hell of a lot of power with my one vote, wouldn’t it?

Get out of my face, Chicken Little, you are stupid and annoying.

Ahhh ... another one obsessed with the EEEEEVvvvil Croooooooozzzze.

Perhaps you do know what is going on and you are part of the problem.

Yeah, I'm a real problem for big government socialists. Always arguing for following the Constitution, eliminating government agencies, reducing the size and scope of government ...

I stumbled onto the US Catholic Bishops website

Impressive. You stumbled across a website. That makes you an expert. NOT.

After posing with Hellry supporters, no normal Freeper should have any remaining faith in Lyin’ Ted - he’s ALWAYS has been pure Establishment RINO...at best.

Can we stop the Ted Cruz bashing already? He is still the 2nd most conservative senator in the Senate. Trump won, can we get over this irrational hate now?

A conservative, anti-American globalist...Now that's appealing...
