They bought the Leftist line that legal actions were worse than Leftist illegal actions.

IMO, that’s what it all boiled down to.

Never-mind this Leftist will rule against us and the Constitution over and over again.

Pretty much...

That and Conservatives need not apply either...

The entire state of Utah to select from and the tired old shoe (Mittens) emerges from the dusty closet.

Yep he nearly pulled it out. Just think of what may have happened if he had
seriously beat the bushes for votes the last 10 days or two weeks. We’ll never
know as he didn’t do that, did he? How may events did he hold during the last
two weeks? Do you know or have a link to his campaign event dates?

I don’t.

Good grief, you’re still hawking the GOPe line, after me laying out what the onslaught against him was.

I guess what you’re telling me is that if he had simply held a few more rallies, you’d have voted for him.

Sad.

It should not have been close. The message is that only establishment approved candidates need apply. Otherwise you get the Roy Moore, Todd Akin, Clayton Williams treatment. And the gullible voters or imaginary voters take care of the rest.

Romney is a pathetic traitor. He would have no problem getting elected.

Sad.

Hope you get to feeling better.

Yep the onslaught was there in big numbers. And he almost
defeated it without getting his butt out on the campaign trail
and shaking hands with locals and asking them to vote for him
and get their neighbors to do likewise. Small town and rural
politics is a little different than in the large metro areas.
JMO. You take care now.

LOL

Still channeling Mitch and Paul, the GOPe...

You don’t know that five more events would have garnered him one more vote.

Moore is Conservative, and yet here you are trashing him and taking a pass on all the entities who joined against him.

Man did I have you wrong.

I’m not trashing his conservatism. I’m only trashing his ability to
manage a political campaign to attract the voters to his side.

It hasn’t dawned on you, that with all the entities backing him by intent or proxy, the other candidate couldn’t garner more support. He barely won.

Why aren’t you trashing him for not doing better?

Your retorts are really sub-par here. You know it and I know it.

You claim that Moore was a terrible candidate.

He was a candidate who faced insurmountable odds to almost win the election.

Please point me to one other statewide election where one candidate was opposed by every national entity, and still nearly won the election.

Name one.

You refuse to admit it, but Moore pulled off an amazing feat nearly winning this election.

Put the blame squarely where it belongs.

I gave you 24 places to place it. You opted to ignore them and trash Moore once again.

Do you think that makes you look reasoned?

*************

It was his campaign to manage, win or lose. You or I neither one
know the internals of his campaign but we do know it was a loser.

Your powers of reasoning are non-existent.

One more attempt to criticize the most Conservative candidate we’ll see in the next 5 years.

Focusing on the Senate, it may be the most Conservative candidate we’ll see in the next 50 years.

There’s only one guy you can fault. It’s the guy who share’s my beliefs, the beliefs of Conservatives.

I’m not going to sit here and fault him when it’s blatantly clear he was done in by literally every public entity that should have supported him.

Despite this, you take a pass on blaming anyone but Moore and his campaign.

Take away all the republican efforts against Moore. He wins by a large margin. None the less, you blame him.

As I said, with each post you make, you make it more clear that you’re not here to push the Conservative cause. You’re here to push the GOPe cause.

Who should win that primary? I emailed Rep. Mia Love, and I asked her to run. I hope that many others will ask her to run, today.

Christian? Not what I call a Christian. He was somebody that talked the talk but didn’t walk the walk. And he barely won his last seat with 51 percent of the vote and that was when everyone thought he was a decent person.

I did see this when you wrote it, and I agreed with it completely.
