AP: "GOP Victory Tuesday Won't Erase Party's Problems"
Posted by: Greg Hengler at 5:53 PM
This preemptive report attack is shameless:

Fiery talk show hosts like Limbaugh and Glenn Beck have become the angry white face of the party, filling a vacuum created by Bush's departure as the its standard-bearer and the lack of one single person to emerge as its next generation leader.

View in ascending order View in descending order

Skep
I'll bet you are glad about the implosion of the RNC... You claimed you voted for Bush and you aren't a liberal, but I'd say you are the biggest hypocrite here.
You also claimed you were conservative and that you had values. If you did, then why would you have voted forthe Pied Piper who resembles nothing of conservatism? (you: he's going to save us from ourselves, how can you be so mean?)
If you were a true conservative you would have voted third party because nobody I saw stood for conservative values, dem or rep. Go back to your cave and screech all you want. Frankly, I am sick and tired of your bullsh8t.
Allen Caeden writes: Monday, November, 02, 2009 11:48 PM
The point is right.
This is only the begining. We now need to get conservatives nominated in the GOP in 2010 and then get them elected throughout the nation at all levels of government. Then we must nomiate a conservative (Sarah Palin in my opinion) on the presidential GOP ticket in 2012. We need to sweep everything, and it will be hard work fighting both the liberals and GOP elites; but tomorrow should encourage us that we can do this, we outnumber the liberals in this country and it is time to restore the conservative principles this country was founded on.

Why no, they're not "Maoists"!
Just because Anita Dunn and Ron Bloom proclaimed that their political inspiration comes from the good Chairman, and that in fact, change does from the "barrel of a gun", and the free market is silly, in no way means they're Maoists. After all, their inspiration only slaughtered 70 million Chinese, so how could they look to him? Silly us for listening, and then taking their very words, and deducing that they're Maoists. However could we arrive at that conclusion? Goodness gracious, sakes alive.....
cottoneyed writes: Monday, November, 02, 2009 10:51 PM
Well, not only do we have "Townhall Jax"
but we also have, "Townhall coop". Both draw inspiration from "Baghdad Bob". We remember him, don't we, as the US Military was marching into Baghdad, the very rational "Bob" took to the airways and proclaimed that, "no", the city was "safe" and the US Military was "no" where to be found! Both Townhall's, "Jax" and "coop" now "rationally" and with every bit the validity as "Baghdad Bob", proclaim that Conservatives are about to be "annihilated" and the GOP, is to "RIP"! As each day passes of the obama administration, you leftists get more and more loony, because your entire political lives race by ya', as one, who is about to die. That is because you are, about to die. The death march begins, tomorrow. See ya'......

Baghdad Bob, Townhall Jax, and Townhall coop, three peas in a pod. lol......

Lonny. You have failed as a parent and raised a gay son. That is why you are a liberal idiot. You do not face the blame for your failure and the ruining of your son's life. Quit blaming others for your failures! I suggest you do what I would do and get out the shotgun and walk out into the backyard and blow out your brains! It is the only way to save your honor and integrity as a parent. Being a lib won't gain you your honor back. Only the extinction of the failure producer will do the trick! Even I would respect you if you did it!

"lies were told about her"

Lies are told by and about every politician. Your point? And why does some unspecified lie about a Republican bother you so much but the NJ dem party lying about the Daggett robocalls not get the merest squeek from you even when challenged? Your exact description of that was "All's fair in politics" wasn't it?

"activists from outside the district (including the reactionary the far right pushes, he's not even a resident) tried to stop the process that has gone on for years."

What process was affected and by whom?

"I don't care who wins."

Yes you do. You are lying. That or expending a lot of time and energy on this blog posting ill-informed and hypocritical rubbish.

"I love the fact that the GOP is imploding."

And you don't care who wins, only who loses I guess?
cottoneyed writes: Monday, November, 02, 2009 10:06 PM
Yeah but one damn thing it will do,

cottoneyed writes: Monday, November, 02, 2009 8:23 PM
Because they have lost the ideological
war, the left must deflect and call those who have defeated them, "racists". But an examination of the left reveals a far different picture. For their policies are directly responsible for the ruination of the black family. 70% of all black children grow up in households, that have no father. Dooming those families to generational poverty, and perpetual wards of the State. Living in urban squalor, where hopelessness, drug addiction, and murder are common, fatherless males turn to gangs for male bonding. Four generations have been told by the left, that America is evil, it is racist, and without them, they have no chance. Visit any large city in this country, and you can easily find sections within that city, that reveal the "success" of that lie! Decade after decade, black people continue to believe the lie. Leftists gave them the "minority thought pattern", and it is the vehicle that keeps em' on the democrat plantation. Few escape it, and when they do, they are vilified, branded as sell outs, and called "Uncle Tom's". This "minority thought pattern" says that good grades are for the white man. Civility, patriotism, good manners, humility, and respect for women fall into this same category. It allows white leftists the control needed, to keep em' votin' the right way, and maintain the notion that they, and only they can protect them from the rampant racism in America. The Great White Hope, the left, RACISTS, extraordinaire!

BHO and his progressive henchman....
...have made Rush and Beck's job sooooo dang easy--and soooo dang much fun.

Like I keep saying, Barack Hussein Obama is Reagan conservatives' new b.f.

Remember last year when poor, pathetic Pat Pib said (he actually SAID this, po' baby): "The Republicans have screwed up; now it's our turn." To screw up too, I guess he meant.

Well, it hasn't taken them long to reveal their true colors: various shades of brown. It's now a holy crap moment for more and more Americans.

PS: The above is NOT a racial slur--simply a scatalogical reference to proud progressivism.

Some perspective...
"Just like a stalinesque purge."

No, it's not. Not until people start disappearing in the night and people are afraid to ask what happened to them.

It is stupid to alienate a section of people who were loyal to your party, but it is nothing like a Soviet style purge.

"obama and the dems are the true stalinists and maoists for that matter"

No, they're not. They are liberal. Pretty standard liberals. Not Maoists. Not Communists. (If they were communists, they would not be so cozy with Wall St.)

They're just normal, run of the mill, liberals. You might disagree with them on what is best for this country and what government should do, but it's nothing out of the ordinary for Republicans and Democrats.

Rasmussen Report
that other "arm of the Republican party" (is it just me or has the Republican PArty grew an awfull lot of arms lately ?) says 'There are more conservatives than Democrats in America, and there are more Democrats than Republicans." because almost half of conservatives do not consider themselves republicans. Which means there is lot of room to grow on the right for Republican party, by being true to conservative principles, and some to grow on the moderate centre by adding a sprinkle of moderate views.
Rasmussen: "Of all the non-Republicans in the nation, 31% consider themselves at least somewhat conservative while 37% say they’re political moderates."
Bottom line is by nominating a conservative Republican Party almost always wins; by nominating a real moderate (not a far left fruitcake like Scozzafava) Republican party mostly wins; by nominating a granola bowl leftie Republican party loses every time.
Rasmussen again: "Looked at from that perspective, nominating a GOP candidate who supports [any of the left wing drivel] is likely to drive away more voters than it attracts."

"...reactionary bullies trying to tell people in a particular congressional district what they should expect in a congressperson."

Every poll taken among the people she wished to represent indicated that they had no desire to be represented by her. So, again I ask the simple question which you seem unable to answer - whose will should be imposed on this candidate other than that of the people she sought to represent?

We have our own version, of "Baghdad Bob" in "Townhall Jax"! Remember, as the US Military was rolling into Baghdad, old "Baghdad Bob" went to the airways, proclaiming that the city was safe and that the US Military was not moving into the city. Our "Townhall Jax" proclaims with equal validity and voraciousness, that Conservatives are on the verge of "annihilation"! "Bob and Jax", so much in common, and equally laughable. Keep up the good work, there "Townhall Jax", comic relief is always appreciated. You leftists are a funny lot, aren't cha'! lol...

He needs to take some economics, US History from me in my college class as do some of the other poor lefties who would love to see America behave like Europe or at least some type of Rousseuan-anarchiac Alinskism.

Dear sceptyczny
Why it is not Stalinesque is simple, she was in the Republican party and not the Democrat party.

The GOP should leave promoting socialism to the socialist party. (Spell that Democratic)

An opposition that appeases instead of opposes has no reason to exist, and no right to expect support from those who still hew to the principles it has betrayed. Period.

Members of the Tea Party Movement weren't worrying about excluding or “purging” anyone; What they did was to enunciate principles and to stand by them, and to fight for them vigorously.

Is it Stalinesque to state that if our founding principles of the United States are your principles, well then, welcome aboard; if not, there is a party that already exists that disdains, despises, and decries those principles, and you ought to feel right at home there.

Only one party of that ilk is required, thank you very much. There’s absolutely no need for a weak-tea version of the same shabby thing.

All in all, sceptyczny, Me Thinks Thou Protests too much. As if you take what hattpened to Dede personally maybe?

Well Liz, please be advised that Rush and Glenn are two men with mega chutzpah. Their shtick is not schlock as you would suggest. IT IS CALLED "TRUTH", a word with which you apparently are not that well acquainted.

So do us all a real favor and try not to expound on subjects or PEOPLE that you know very little about.

As with Rush and Glenn, they both know that meticulous research is a prerequisite to high quality, equitable reporting. Unfortunately, you haven't gleaned that concept. Condescension in advance of the anticipated occurance (outcome) is slimy: but, of course you knew that!
