THREE Cheers For OUR BRAVE VETS!
Fine links today via LL.
Thank you.
One missed is a link to the Miller - Palin - Tea Party Express in Alaska. Reduced to the same legal challenges they all cried foul about in the Primary (some of our best on the right side of history did the same like Intapundit).
At the time, this humble conservative, wrote to a number of folks on our side, concerned about the vitriol in this primary and others, foolishly creating more opposition to the good cause.
But this is truly revealing about the mythic hype over the Palin Franchise, Tea Party Express influence. Certainly, Miller turned out to have many flaws and contradictions, but this is so true about anyone in an Image - Identity movement. Conservatives used to know, the fluff is not based on reality - humans are human.
Anyhow, it is telling, in Mrs. Palin's backyard, they made a very personal effort to destroy Murkowski, (with a 70% ACU rating), and I remember the ugly emails from the Tea Party Express as well. Yet, they seem to have failed tremendously, being beaten by an unheard of 'write in' effort.
The fashion got it wrong yet again.
One can be thankful (we can only hope it remains the case) Murkowski caucuses with the Republicans, and does not turn into another pure free agent.
Although I too, wanted to see better conservative candidates, I know it is good politics to remain constructive - not destructive. To properly vet candidates prior to the run, and always try to offer an attractive expression to encourage all to join the right side.
Mrs. Palin, the Tea Party Express, and quite a few Conservative Pundits, really lost a great deal of credibility in this last Midterm.
