I’ll vote for a GOP nominee based on the Candidate’s merits. I won’t vote for Jeb or Christy.

I don't live in Kentucky and have no idea who the best Republican for governor would be.

Here's a clue: Go FOR the one Mitch McConnell hates the most. I can't wait 'til that crusty old fart, Mitch McConnell dies and goes on to that big Senate Cloak Room in the sky............. or wherever.

Norm has not shilled for any liberal. You on the other hand, is shilling for a liberal-progressive republican.

As conservatives, we have stopped seeing these politicians through the the republican/democrat prism. You and other republicans like to keep conservative voters looking through these glasses. However, when we take off the glasses we see the candidates are liberals or conservatives. The "R" after their name has become increasingly meaningless.

McConnell as republican majority leader has done everything that a democrat majority leader would do. Hence, he is a liberal. He as done more damage than Grimes would have done, not just damaging the republican brand.

Stop being a troll for progressive-liberals.

The "bogey man" is real, and he is passing all of Barry's agenda.

Mitch McConnell has expended much more funds, energy, enthusiasm against this former primary opponent than he has against any Democrat.

A liberal is a liberal whether they have the “R” or “D” next to their name. The liberal-Republicans were elected after making several promises. Many of us said they were lying. Recent events proved us right!

The GOPe has overtly attacked Conservatives. Meanwhile, FR members such as ifinnegan condemn Conservatives for withholding support for those who announce their intention to destroy us!

McConnell, among others, funded attack adds to defeat McDaniel in the Mississippi primary. McCain urged IRS targeting of Conservative groups.

You really must be smoking some pretty powerful crap to believe it’s in a Conservatives best interest to support these bastards.

This liberal has a mad on with me because I don’t let him spew his GOP talking points script freely. One of several that fit that pattern actually.

Their whole agenda is to keep conservatives spending hours upon hours fighting with them on the very same talking points they have dragged out for 3 elections now so that the time isn’t spent getting behind one conservative candidate and making any progress. And since they seem to wear rubber suits, they can keep doing it and doing it and doing it every election without a lot of fear of obstruction.

It’s really funny when the liberal media tries to pull a “gotcha” on a conservative candidate and they turn “concern troll” and “sadly” comment how the candidate couldn’t possibly recover.

Liberals believe that if they say it, it comes true. While I’m pretty down on the whole ‘conservative talker’ thing lately, I am 100% in Rush’s corner when he says that they made their own TV president to follow during the Bush years. And then did it.

These people don’t deal in whats real. They deal in what they want to be real to the exclusion of the actual reality around them. Global warming, Klanners behind every tree waiting to string up an unsuspecting minority...the list of things is well known. So when they say X can’t recover, they believe it to be so because saying it makes it so.

They are all prophets of the self fulfilling variety. At least they tell themselves that...

Hey Matt, since your family bell making business is in CT, I think you'd be a great CT governor...(and yes, I'd support you).

Of course, I think my nephew who was just born could do a better job as governor of Connecticut, then Danell Malloy.
