In all truth, these establishment Republicans will never have loyalty to a conservative Republican party, and will even work with Democrats to defeat it. So it needs to be made clear to them that if they want war, so be it, but if they lose, they will no longer have any position of authority within the party.

They and their lobbyist cronies will be on the outs, as will their business clients. So there will be no more sweetheart deals, favorable legislation to give them government money instead of earning it, and the party itself will show them the door.

The establishment encouraged the attacks on O’Donnell. They did not want her to be successful, and undermined her from the beginning. This is what they are doing now, and plan to do in the future. But if they think we will sit back and meekly accept their wise guidance, they will see that those days are over.

42% Identify with Obama Politically, 42% with 'Tea Party'

From Rasmussen on Drudge.

So, I wonder how much of the remaining % goes to the elite GOP?

I would be willing to bet that this internecine war will not result in Tea Party capitulation, rather the opposite.

They only had those two choices for answers -- Obama and the average member of the Tea Party.

That doesn't mean everybody in either column is enthusiastic about the choice or that they reject other alternatives.

They just dislike the other choice more than the one they picked.

You can be certain of that. First, the tea party members believe, and are absolutely convinced, that they are fighting for the survival of the country as we know it. They will never capitulate. On the other hand, the Republican elite do not actually believe in anything or stand for anything. They are simply looking for personal advantage and personal enrichment.

However, the Republican elite is stubborn and does not learn. Therefore, although there is the obvious potential to come together and work together, the arrogance of the establishment will prevent it from happening.

As a result, neither side will capitulate, and the Republican party will be split in two. That is sad, preventable, and not desirable at all.

However, the tea party began as an independent movement, held its nose to work within the GOP when the GOP was pretending to change, and will be more than happy to leave the GOP. Many tea party leaders and members have had to be talked in to remaining within the GOP. It won't take much to get them to walk out.

Most tea party members believe that the Republican Party cannot be saved, and the only hope is to start a new party. Because that belief is so strong, the tea party will never capitulate.

Either Republican leaders reform and return to Reaganesque principles of fiscal responsibility, there will not be any Republican party in a few years.

And how did that work out for Senator O'Donnell?

Better than it did for Mike Castle the RINO loser, and his RINO water carriers.

It got her IRS records illegally accessed and distributed, in an inside-job to derail her campaign with what turned out in hindsight to be false allegations, but at the time a lethal blow.

And her character besmirched.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Rove and his buddies had a hand in that.

Yes, Christine O’Donnell is very adorable and cute. But why is it that we can’t analyze her campaign and how the establishment behaved without it turning in to how hot Christine is? Sure, any man would be lucky, like winning the lottery every day of his life, to be with Christine. But there are other things that are also important about her running for the U.S. Senate in our country.

One aspect of Christine’s campaign is that it forced the deceptive and lying establishment moderates out into the open. The snipers were exposed. The big-government statists wearing the conservative uniform were unmasked and seen for who they really are.

Sadly, Christine performed a very valuable service — among dozens of others — by drawing fire and exposing the liars and fakes within the GOP.
