Cheney and Mainstream GOP Rebuked in Rand Paul Win
By Jim Lagnese, AKA The Right Guy
Rand Paul kicked Grayson's ass in the GOP senate primary in Kentucky, with 59% of the vote. It's a landslide. While I am happy as a clam and it is great news, one thing came to mind. The Tea Party has rebuked the mainline establishment GOP again in this latest primary.
In the senate primary in Utah, Mitt Romney campaigned strongly for Robert Bennett. Bennett lost soundly in spite of Romney's effort, a mormon republican in a mormon republican state. Romney's insider status was repudiated for a fresh Tea Party start.
With the primary election in Kentucky, Cheney campaigned for Grayson, as did other mainline republicans, like Gingrich, to no avail. Remember Gingrich was the same moron that supported Dee Dee Scozzafava against Doug Hoffman. How did that happen Mr. Potato Head? I will assert here that the populace, the Tea Party people, have repudiated Cheney as well. Darth Vader loses, and now shares a spot on the bench with the Sears® Mannequin.
Look for this trend to continue. Machine GOP will have to understand, just like incumbent democrats, that being the GOP default, being anointed by the party oligarchs, by being an incumbent does not guarantee a seat back at the table. And I want the rest of you cowboys to know something, there's a new sheriff in town. And his name is Tea Party. So y’all be cool. Right on.
Thank you for reading this blog.
Republican for Agriculture – Alabama
No Bull!
From Eric Dondero:
Not sure if this guy has any libertarian leanings. But he sure ain't no sissy. He's the kind of guy we'd want going up against Islamo-Fascist terrorists or Mexican drug lords.
This video is making the rounds around the rightosphere. Enjoy!
Sarah Palin uses the ‘l’ word to describe Rand Paul
From Eric Dondero:
Sarah Palin was elated last night on Hannity, Fox News describing Rand Paul's victory in the US Senate race in Kentucky.
Palin has attended Libertarian Party meetings in the past, and was identified with the libertarian wing of the GOP in her race for Governor in 2006.
Last night she described fellow Tea Partier Rand Paul as a libertarian.
"He's a bit unconventional. He's a libertarian. He's not a fan of big government."
Palin went on to describe his win as a monumental victory for the Tea Party movement. Hannity credited Palin in helping with Paul's win, as an early out-front endorser.
