Enough Carly Bashing - Let's Unite to Defeat Boxer

EEE | 09 JUNE 2010 | EEE

[El Cid]

I voted for DeVore in the Primary, and I'll vote for Fiorina in the General.
She isn't the Conservative leader I'd like -- but Ms. Boxer needs to go. Far away.

[kevao]

It wasn’t a very good purge; there are still some people left on here who disagree with me :)

[newheart]

ROFL!

[ConservativeMind]

In general, I agree wholeheartedly with you, but we either get Boxer with her seniority and her party out of there or we allow her to run things for anther six years.

We can fight the RINO at the next primary for that seat. In the meantime, let’s cut the Democrats off at the knees. Even if the Democrats are the party in power next year, they won’t be giving committee leadership positions to a RINO over their other liberal options.

iCarly will be another reliable vote for McCain-Feingold, internet regulations, open borders etc etc

Of course she might turn on a dime, you never know. lol.

[GeronL]

Another Snowe and Collins helps us how?

[dhuynh73]

At the end of day my friends, if we as conservative don't stand united together we are going lose lonely. While Carly does not have the type of conservative credentials as we would like; but at least she have something to earn Gov. Palin endorsement. As Californian, we need to remove Boxer then Feinstein. We need have a true voice representing California interest in Washington DC. I respect Carly for being a CEO, whether she was fire or not; she does know what it feel like to meet payroll each weekly or biweekly; unlike that idiot Boxer.

"Another Snowe and Collins helps us how?"

Senators Collins and Snowe are pro-life? Who knew?

[GreyFriar]

How dare you sir to suggest that we should stop looking for the perfect candidate, in our own eyes at least, and unite around the winner of the primary. Is it not better for us to moan, lament, and cry over the loss of our “perfect” candidate and resign ourselves to vote to relect the incumbent Democrat? May we forever seek our “perfect” candidate and continue to ensure that the corrupt, etc, democrats continue to be re-elected until we find that “perfect” person.

I have been very depressed the last 24 hours but I scrapped the DeVore bumper sticker off my car but the people have spoken and it is time to move on. At least it was not Campbell.

[GeronL]

So was Bart Stupak... who supported his local Planned Parenthood!

[2ndDivisionVet]

Congressman Stupak is a Democrat. Trust them at your peril.

[luckystarmom]

I’m on board. Go Carly!

[Lazlo in PA]

We need to start somewhere. Before Obummer, getting rid of Boxer was unimaginable. Steering this ship to the right will not happen overnight and the left is very powerful right now. Conservatism will prevail we stay vigilant and hold these new converts to their word.

[upsdriver]

Well said! Debating candidates and issues are one thing but the childish playground behavior of so many around here is getting old.

[sissyjane]

Not this again...I’ll take Foirina over Boxer any day, and I live in CA.

[freedumb2003]

The perfect is the enemy of the good.

We wanted a true Conservative in place, we didn’t get it. In this case at least she has some Conservative quals. Which makes her way, way better than that idiot boxer.

I get so tired of FReepers who would rather have an extreme liberal b/c the alternative is a RINO of some stripe or another. That kind of thinking is what gave us the TOTUS-reader.

[ConservativeMind]

I understand, but a zero-year seniority RINO is much better than a 20 year seniority Democrat.

As for McLame, one of his problems is his seniority in the Senate. I could handle the RINO better if it was reset to zero. Every reset of a more liberal-leaning seat means someone more conservative is moved up.

I don't know why this is so hard for people to understand. It is not the foot soldiers that matter its the leadership. Snowe and Collins caused us problems because Bush was a liberal on domestic policy and allowed Snowe and Collins to do what they did. As you can see from the last year or so Snowe and Collins have followed the GOP leadership in not voting for Obama’s bills.

The leadership is what is important and Carly's win last night did wonders for conservatism at the national level by giving power to one of the most conservative national figures on the stage at the moment.

The reason Rinos killed us in 200-2006 was not because they were RINOs but because BUSH was. got it?
