"Palin warned that gloating by the GOP establishment could backfire. "The GOP establishment must ratchet any kind of arrogance way down and get in touch with independent, constitutional conservatives who build the base of the party," she said in a statement Wednesday. "They do the thankless work to put boots on the ground for your campaigns, and they show up to vote if you give us good reason to vote. Anything less and we will not secure victory for America this fall.”
Levin angrily denounced the Establishment.
"These people," Levin said, "are not about empowering the American people, they're about empowering themselves. They see a majority in the House and a majority in the Senate, not as an opportunity to serve the people but to serve themselves."
And, therein lies the problem. Do you see it?
They are having problems raising money because the big money Republicans have backed away. They will not win without it, but they refuse to stop it with the divisive vitriol.
Unless they can successfully go it on their own, (I doubt it.), they are done.

Nope. The 'baggers ignored that race as unwinnable and panned it. What kicked Cantor's ass was that his district was gerrymandered too far right into xenophobic Dixieland.

I'm no 'bagger but I've said it before - ignore these excellent pavement pounders at ones own peril.

That, and Cantor was universally seen an an unprincipled, over-ambitious, slippery SOB.

I didn't say support them  I see them as I see the fringe on both sides.
