This is a very, very sad day for America. The election of Steele proves that the Republican party will not go in the direction they need to for the sake of our country. They can expect to be in the minority for quite some time to come.

Are you a true conservative or just a kool aid drinker? If you are a true conservative then you would listen to what this other true conservative has to say about him.

Steve Deace is so right about him.

He’s a RINO. On that we can be clear. This proves that the Republican Party’s move to the Left might be a permanent legacy of the Bush years.

And forget, please, “conservatism,” please. It will not “save” us because it has been, operationally, de facto, Godless and therefore irrelevant. Secular conservatism will not defeat secular liberalism because to God both are two atheistic peas-in-a-pod and thus predestined to failure. As Stonewall Jackson’s Chief of Staff R.L. Dabney said of such a humanistic belief more than 100 years ago:

“[Secular conservatism] is a party which never conserves anything. Its history has been that it demurs to each aggression of the progressive party, and aims to save its credit by a respectable amount of growling, but always acquiesces at last in the innovation. What was the resisted novelty of yesterday is today .one of the accepted principles of conservatism; it is now conservative only in affecting to resist the next innovation, which will tomorrow be forced upon its timidity and will be succeeded by some third revolution; to be denounced and then adopted in its turn. American conservatism is merely the shadow that follows Radicalism as it moves forward towards perdition. It remains behind it, but never retards it, and always advances near its leader. This pretended salt bath utterly lost its savor: wherewith shall it be salted? Its impotency is not hard, indeed, to explain. It is worthless because it is the conservatism of expediency only, and not of sturdy principle. It intends to risk nothing serious for the sake of the truth.”

Our country is collapsing because we have turned our back on God (Psalm 9:17) and refused to kiss His Son (Psalm 2).

Mindlessly repeating liberal has never worked to my knowledge. I remember when Dave Fisher ran against Wayne Gilchrest employing largely the same “he’s a liberal” tactics unsuccessfully.

The bottom line is that even in a down year for Republicans, this never should have happened. The district was drawn for a Republican, and GOperative is right – blame has to be assigned.

From what I could see, Andy was working hard to get the shore vote. I really was surprised he didn’t fare better given the time he spent over there.

I’d like to add Roscoe Barlett to your list of elected officials. What a disappointment he was this election. I don’t understand what his problem with Harris is. Is this a case of the Washington politicians protecting each other no matter what? If this is the case, why didn’t Roscoe endorse Harris after the primary? Certainly Bartlett’s conservative voting record is more in line with Harris than Gilchrest.

Hopefully Andy will find a different campaign manager and run again.

Dr. Paul received 10% of the vote here in Harford County in the primary in February.
