This is exactly what's wrong with the GOP Posted by Kevin Barber — September 10, 2009 @ 12:54PM
You think that the GOP would embrace a fresh face, led by a grassroots effort. You'd think that polling at 26% would make you want to see what the candidate has going for him, not "rally the troops" against someone on your own side. You'd think that the GOP would do some self analysis and realize that new faces with solid principles is exactly what they need.
Instead, they're MAD that Rand Paul is running for US senate (KY), upset that they'll have to spend money to get "their guy" on the republican ticket.
GOP - when you alienate conservatives and actually align against reform of your own broken party, you show me you have learned nothing.
I encourage you to vote ALL progressives out. Progressive democrats and progressive republicans. Forget these broken (hijacked) parties.
You know what we need in Washington? A fresh batch of AMERICANS!
