    Sometimes, you lurch into idiotdom.

    Cheney may be the Darling of Northern Virginia, but she's DOA in a Republican primary in most states.

    I'm not saying she would win, I would just like to see more politicians like her.

      Ones that forego standard jurisprudence, doesn’t believe the accused should be allowed cross examination or to present their own evidence? You would like to see more of that?

        What was all the talk about work just beginning in her concession speech? Sounded like political aspirations of some sort.

          She had an interview on a national tv show this morning where she indicated she may pursue the presidency.

            She wants it so bad, she can taste it.

            If she had voted to impeach Trump, then shut her mouth and not stepped all over the national messaging of the GOP, she might have had a chance in the future. I think she's shit in the bed on any future aspirations.

                  That's your opinion.

                  It is not the opinion of GOP leadership trying to craft a message in opposition to Mr. Biden's policies he was trying to get through Congress.

                      Not if Trump continues his purge of conservatives in the GOP. The DNC unfortunately succumbed to left wing populist bullshit some years ago. Trump is doing everything he can to replace conservatism with his right wing brand of populist nonsense in the GOP.

                      Pattern seems to be happening elsewhere in the world as well but without quite the same degree of “in your fucking face” kitschy bravado and macho bluster as Stateside.

                        Conservatism and Trump are not mutually exclusive.

                              I just don't get it. Her only "sin" was not to kiss the shoes of President Trump.

                              Her voting record was very very conservatively.

                              Many people say that they are not a single issue voter, but in this case, it seems like they were.

                              Long term, the Republican "fawning" and absolute devotion of President Trump is a bad strategy.

                                    I just don't get it. Her only "sin" was not to kiss the shoes of President Trump.

                                    Her voting record was very very conservatively.

                                    Many people say that they are not a single issue voter, but in this case, it seems like they were.

                                    Long term, the Republican "fawning" and absolute devotion of President Trump is a bad strategy.

                                    She was a figurehead and standard bearer for Never Trump sentiment. A sentiment which, obviously, was at odds with her constituency. Do you seriously have difficulty understanding that? Do you think the person WY chose over her will have more conservative policies, less conservative, or do you have no clue?

                                    Education is extremely important.

                                      It is that single issue which caused her to lose. It is not her voting record, that is for sure. So, for the most majority of the voters, they were voting on a single issue.

                                      As for her opponent, I dont really know much about her. (This is probably mean to say, but I guess that half of the voters probably dont know much about her either, only that she said she had President Trumps endorsement and Rep. Cheney did not)

                                        So for all you know there is no substantive difference between the two candidates other than whether they support Trump. But you criticize the voters for making their decision based on the only difference you’re aware of.

                                        The reason you lack respect for these voters is because you disagree with them about Trump. But you frame it like you’re opposed to simplistic single issue thinking. That’s unfair to those voters, the vast majority of whom know more about what they’re voting for than you do. I hope you can try to be more respectful of others. It is an important part of being a good citizen of this world we all share.
