Onslaught II

Boca

Governor
From Michelle Malkin...that would be the smart minority Michelle.

A prominent Republican senator just told me that if Romney can’t win in Michigan, the Republican Party needs to go back to the drawing board and convince somebody new to get into the race.

“If Romney cannot win Michigan, we need a new candidate,” said the senator, who has not endorsed anyone and requested anonymity.

The senator believes Romney will ultimately win in Michigan but says he will publicly call for the party to find a new candidate if he does not.


Whoever that Senator is, he/she has recognized the obvious. Mind you I didn't say the obvious solution to the nominee bidness...just that Conservatism (and the Tea Party) are more than just a fear factor for establishment Republicans and run of the mill Democrats. If the credentialed and experienced guy with the Crest smile can't nail it down in Michigan in Republican primaries, what are the chances in the street fight to come?

But it's much more than that. The takeaway here is that not only Democrats, but incumbent RINO's took a beating in 2010 too, and they will again. When cleaning house you start in your own room.

As for you Dems...aside from a dead Osama, what has changed since the shellacing you took in 2010 that encourages you? Is it more debt or free contraceptives?
 
...no, I think you misunderstand, to quote a famous republican - you don't get any more "conservative" than in-san(e)-a-torum or paul - it's not that. It's that the republicans KNOW neither of these "severely conservative" individuals are unelectable. romney, well, he's romney - dog, not worried about poor, etc, etc and no need to even mention gnewt (family values) gingrich...

...no, despite this "unnamed" and "uncommitted" republican he knows they are in a world of hurt. They got what they got, Jeb, he isn't ready for prime-time just yet - too many brotherly reminders remain. The only thing they can do is to hope not to lose too many seats since their stratergee (another quote) to do everything possible to stop the recovery (aka one-term Obama) didn't seem to work - go figure...
 
There is NOTHING that the DemocRats can run on and ask America if we want four more years of the same. Most Americans are just not that stupid (like they were in 2008). Obama's poll numbers speak to that.

the elite repubs know this, the rump remains in denial.
 
no, it's you who misunderstand

my post wasn't about who could beat Obama, it was about the Republican hierarchy that somehow didn't get the message in 2010 and apparently still doesn't.

'Bout as simple as I can make it for ya Fig...sorry.
 
Sounds like an insult Julie...think I'll report it to Gecko so he can give you a star.

On the other hand, since it struck a nerve there's a good chance you understood; Gecko wouldn't so I'll give the star.
 
...hey boca, no, I didn't misunderstand - methinks the teapubs haven't learned that their rabid no-compromise agenda is not "mainstream" and will only cause republicans to lose ground. yes, the country is right of center but not as far right as teapubs seem to believe...
 
"rump" how dare Julie speak about the First lady like that.......... w/out using roost.
 
Dems have nothing ... and the consternation about our candidates I beieve is unfounded but fueled by the lib media. Gingrich, Romney and Santorum are very strong candidates.
ABO 2012

Yep...that's why they've been playing Whack A Mole for the last few months. Everytime someone pops up, WHACK . First there was Bachmann, then Romney, then Perry, then Cain, then Gingrich, then Romney again, and now Santorum. Did I forget anyone?

Diggin' dirt is hard work... who would have thought the White House and it's media group would finally find that many shovel ready projects?
