#2 Thanks for the second link to provide context. These guys are morons. Hopefully Trump has someone finding primary opponents where they are needed.

#5 You know, all of those Tea Party people are still around, and they probably aren't any happier with Washington than they were 6 years ago. Just sayin.

#6 Big mistake: ask Crooked Hillary, Low Energy Jeb, Lil' Marco and Lyin' Ted. The curbs of K Street are littered with their bleached bones.

#7 Townhall anger coming from Progs. See Tea Party townhall anger at Dems. The Left seems to have learned.

It is important that Conservatives grit their teeth and deal with that which they must deal with while respectfully ignoring the din of naysayers.

#8 The Tea Party mistake was trying to work within the system. Should have put up independents rather than run the fixed primary systems. None of those votes could have been counted upon as 'what choice do you have other than me' to show up in November. That leaves the incumbent to try to actually alter their behavior or go scorched earth.
