If the GOP EVER wants to be relevant again they have to detach themselves from the crazies.

But that would deprive Rush and Glen of idiots to manipulate! No fun there!
The GOP bus is so crowded underneath that the wheels can't touch the ground.

And you have a brain? I don't think you are old enough to put two and two together apparently. It has nothing to do with heartstrings and such. It has everything to do with a monolithic insurance money grab that is bankrupting Americans and tossing the ill in the scrap heap as their loved ones are scrambling to survive. I hope you never ever go through the hell that many Americans find themselves totally at a loss in helping their ill family members and paying a mortgage on top of a monthly insurance bill that equals that mortgage. And at the same time fighting said insurance company every step of the way to deliver what they are supposed to deliver, always the thought the insurance company is looking to dump this sick member at any time.
Monolithic, you say. I'll tell you what's monolithic: the federal government creating a one-size-fits-all health care system. Health insurance costs will go down when the state and federal government free the insurers to compete for our health care dollars. Because most states dictate what must be included in an insurance contract there now is no competition. And, of course, these states mandate Cadillac-style insurance policies that everybody has to pay for, whether they need it or not. Make health insurance like car insurance, or property insurance, or life insurance or any other kind of insurance available and let people shop around for exactly the policy that fits their need and watch health insurance premiums come down.
You do realize that if you go after Snowe with a conservative Primary challenge and knock her off in the Primary we will take the seat? I'm not going to complain, but I do find it hilarious the GOP likes to try and throw out moderate Republicans especially in liberal states.
You know what? It would be worth it just to get truth in advertising from these politicians. At least we'd know where the Dem was coming from.
One key difference is the Republicans are targeting members of their own party who aren't conservative enough in moderate to liberal states. The Dems did go after Lieberman in the Primary, but he was in a liberal state. You don't see the Dems trying to target people like Ben Nelson of Nebraska or Mark Pryor of Arkansas for not being liberal enough. The Republicans, however will go after members of their own party if they aren't conservative enough no matter how liberal the state might be.

Personally I think some of them ride "the short bus".
