LAST NIGHT'S BIG LOSERS: NATIONAL REPUBLICANS

National GOP Backed Losing Candidates In Two Primaries ... Tea Party Favorite Rand Paul Wallops GOP Establishment Pick In KY-SEN Primary ... Scoreboard

One thing is certain, Republicans are going to have issues. The problem is not that the GOP-backed candidate lost, it's that the GOP now has to support the teabagger's radical agenda. The media is hyping the loses by Democratic incumbents, but unlike the GOP, the Democratic candidates who won are solid Democrats.

2. McConnell looks like a turtle...you know those cartoon turtles.

[corkhead]

7. He needs to "duck and cover" in November

[Cognitive_Resonance]

4. Real story: The GOP is in deep trouble, and has been all along. n/m

[FrenchieCat]

5. Odd that this is not what is being reported, although this really is the story!

[Rosa Luxemburg]

6. Perhaps someone should get on TV and tell how it really is

8. Meanwhile, in other election news

CNN:
Open season on political incumbents
Voters buck party bosses

MSNBC:
Quirky campaigns prove ideal in era of anti-incumbents

ABC:

9. I'd be careful touting that too much because Obama is 0 for 4. I have a feeling a lot of our

candidates are going to ask Obama to not come out and campaign for them.

10. NY 23

In other words, nah and nope.

Wins by Democrats is not something the President needs to be concerned about.

The GOP, on the other hand, have issues:

"After the candidate he handpicked to replace the sitting Senator he forced out was crushed in his own backyard, it's fair to say that Mitch McConnell was election night's biggest loser. If the loss weren't bad enough on its own, it may also impact McConnell's leadership position. Going into last night, several commentators saw the Kentucky Republican primary as proxy fight between the McConnell-backed Grayson and DeMint backed-Paul. A fight that McConnell lost, and that not only weakens his leverage in Washington and in Kentucky, but deepens the schism between the far-right and extreme right of the Republican Party."

13. Like it or not, the President in office is representative of the party, look what happened with Bush

republicans didn't want him campaigning for them.

[ProSense]

15. "the President in office is representative of the party"

and one of the most popular Democrats in the country.

"look what happened with Bush republicans didn't want him campaigning for them."

You really see a parallel here?

[HillGal]

16. Yes I do, Obama is 0 for 4, did you see what Critz campaigned on to win his seat? he was

against the health care bill, I don't think that bodes well at all.

[ProSense]

17. "did you see what Critz campaigned on to win his seat...he was against the health care bill"

Sestak won, and he voted for the health care bill. There goes that theory.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

19. Uh-huh.

:eyes:

[Jennicut]

12. McConnell looks a bit like a stunned dog all the time.

He is probably wondering what to do with the two teabagger nutballs he has running as Rethugs in the GE.

[Arugula Latte]

18. I heard he's been moved to the top of the waiting list for a lip transplant.

14. K & R!
