Lonegan lost to TBoneBooker by only 10%.
Just 12 months ago Obama beat moderate Republican Romney by 18%.
Sen. Menendez won his senate seat by 20% against a moderate republican candidate.
Lesson: Tea Party candidates (and their idea of small government and low debt) do better than soft republicanism, even in states that are overwhelmingly Democrat !

Hmmm, I'm sure there is a lesson to be learned from Trendaway-from-Intelligence here, but I'm just not sure what it is. OH! maybe here's a few:
1) Calling oneself a "constitutional conservative" doesn't mean anything since no one knows what today's definition (by Teawipe Parrotriots) of that means. If Sarah and Lush haven't shot their mouths off in 24 hours, then who knows?
2) Trendy calls him "unabashed," I think he's probably only afflicted with Turrets' Syndrome.
3) We now know that a special election during an off year called by the sitting Republican't Governor (a rino or "soft" R, I'm sure, by Trendy's standards) is the new benchmark of what all of the people who didn't vote might do when they do.
4) Teawipe Arsewholes, as opposed to "soft" R's, do better in REPUBLICAN'T primaries than Democrats. General elections, not so much.

See #3 above.
Trending-Towards-Douche-ism strikes another blow(me) for "facts" and Jack (whomever and wherever you are).
