Tea Party candidate and lawyer Ted Cruz has beaten establishment Republican David Dewhurst in a primary to fill the Senate seat vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchinson. Could this be a further bell weather signalling that the Tea Party and the grass roots movement to remove Republican incumbents out of sink with the base is still going strong?
"Out of Sink?" LOL...
I hope so. The more divided the GOP becomes, the better it is for the modreates/liberals left in the GOP and otherwise. The Country is a center-right country in some parts and center-left in others. As the GOP splits, it's power (or more correctly perceived power) becomes split as well.
Good news. Dewhurst losing is likely the first in many dominoes that will fall in states that have been infected with this virus.
As with all infections; the infection is alleviated or eventually the host dies. Both are wins for the voices of moderation.
Big time, the teabaggers have been a gift to the freedom lovers on the left.
First it was angle and odonnell taking sure loses for the democrats (including harry reid) to making it smooth sailing for the (D) win
Same now in IN with the right wing extremists voting in a teabagger in the senate primaies unseating Lugar's locked (R) seat, and now turning it to likely dem.
Thanks teabaggers!
Yeah.....I heard about that organization "freedom lovers on the left."
They hold their annual meetings in a unisex bathroom cubicle, don't they?
