Speech - I am so glad I am not like you. The end.

Hello again,

I think the Tea Party WILL split off from the GOP and form a 3rd party with Ted Cruz and Mike Lee as their leaders.

They really thought they could defund Obamacare, and they're really pissed at the GOP for not sticking with them.

Possibly . The Whigs gave birth to the Republicans... who split from them... and the Whigs eventually died leaving the 2 party system intact . Or you could have another version of 1976-1980 where conservatives took the party from the beltway Repubics . That's the version I would prefer . But either way works for me because the Repubics today are nothing more than statists ,barely different from the Dems.

By the way .Steve Lonegan ,former Mayor of Bogota, New Jersey ,and NJ director of Americans for Prosperity has a legit chance of winning the NJ Senate seat formerly held by Dem Frank Lautenberg . His opponent is Newark Mayor Cory Booker. He has this chance despite the best efforts of RINO Governor Chris Christie ;who was too afraid to have Corey Booker on the same ballot as Christie lest his reelection #s get diluted .

So instead of having the Republican nominee grab onto his coat tails in November ,he decided to hold a special election this month for the Senate seat... strapping the people of NJ with the cost of 2 state wide elections in a month.

The race right now is real close ;and it may be that Christie's coat tails would've been the difference. But Christie is about Christie .

Conservatives got in line when the party nominated McCain and Romney even though they were far from the ideal choice of the conservatives.
But when the reverse is the case... as in NJ ,or now in Va. The weasel Rockefeller Repubics go out of their way to undermine the conservative nominee.
In Va . Ken Cuccinelli won the nomination against "moderate " Lieutenant Governor Bill Bolling. Bolling has refused to endorse Cucinelli, and I'm hearing he's going to endorse \ Democrat Terry McAuliffe instead of his party nominee.

Here in NY we have Peter King going insane in his condemnation of Cruz and Rand Paul. Enough!! Let the Repubics go into the trash heap of history . They have stopped being an opposition party and instead play the role of jester foils. Here in NY they intentionally lose elections and have done so for years. NYC is about to elect a commie mayor who worked for the Sandanistas and is a Castro sympathizer . The Repubics picked a Tammany Hall insider to run against him.

They can't be to bad if they shutdown the US government.

Booker's "neighbors" haven't been able to find him in years apparently.

Booker, who filed to run for the U.S. Senate from a P.O. Box in Newark, is registered to vote at 435 Hawthorne Avenue but his next door neighbors told this reporter and filmmaker Joel Gilbert on camera that they haven't seen Booker in years and that he doesn't live there.

“Does he still live here?” Gilbert asked Booker's neighbor, Tashay Thomas.

“He never did,” she replied. “His security guards live here.”

Why did he claim to live there while sending police to be quartered in a private home?

“Because he is a liar.” Thomas replied.

Thomas yelled out to someone across the street: “They're looking for that fake mayor who says he live here. He does not live here!”

“Cory Booker don't live here,” said James Sharp, another neighbor. “Only his bodyguards live here.”

Why did he tell people he lived here? asked Gilbert.

“So that he could keep telling people he did stuff but he is not doing anything. A lot of people getting killed and he's supposed stop the violence but he don't.”

Maybe they can't find him because he's one of those corrupt elite posers our liberal friends despise.

He certainly has the right academic qualifications to be part of the ruling elite. The same type of qualifications that are found on the other sides of politics as well,

[tomder55]

Here in NY we are used to having absentee representatives... especially Senators ,some of whom never lived in the State until the day they took up permanent residency in an unoccupied hotel room... Booker should feel right at home in the Senate where residency in the state you represent is optional.
That being said... I don't think there is enough confirmation of this story .

Hello again,

So, did Ted Cruz do this for the benefit of the country, or for the benefit of Ted Cruz?

Same as Palin. And DeMint for that matter.

[tomder55]

Cruz is a principled conservative who did exactly what he said he'd do when he ran for office. That makes him unique in DC

OH please!
