[MichaelDavis]

Wow, what did Lee Terry (NE-02) do to piss Republicans off?

[Anti-Neocon]

Bruning didn't run a Super PAC attacking Walter Jones. I suppose that is one issue.

Oh crap that's the same Ricketts? FUCK him. Seems like a MichaelDavis type candidate though.

He was Cheney's choice which Michael convenient left out. (link)

Ugh. I don't think it is. I'm pretty sure that's his father.

 

[Anti-Neocon]

Same family is what I mean. Well, he's got Ryan/Cheney/Walker/Pence support so he can't be too far from his father.

He voted for some big spending projects. I cant remember which. But his primary challenger decided to talk about "needy illegal aliens" getting healthcare if they assimilate.

His dad runs it. I dont think Pete Ricketts could or would have directly signed off on Walter Jones.

Ricketts had Cruz, Palin and Steve King endorse him. The only nearby conservative in any direction from Nebraska is Steve King or Tim Huelskamp.

Ricketts still struggled to win because Bruning and Beau McCoy hit him on flip flopping on immigration.

 

[Anti-Neocon]

Anyone who Dick "Deficits Don't Matter" Cheney supports is almost definitely pure poison (aka not even fiscally conservative).

I thought so. People like Anti-Neocon just want to fabricate a reason to bitch.

Keep shilling for garbage candidates. It's very revealing.

He was endorsed by Dick Cheney (the one major endorsement which you left out of your OP, wonder why). Enough said. You don't even have to look at his relation to his father's Super PAC to know that he's an enemy of liberty.

PS: His father's Super PAC supported Cruz's 2012 campaign, so the Cruz endorsement is probably just Ted returning the favor.

You have no evidence that Ricketts is an "enemy of liberty". You claim one endorsement is bad, while ignoring all of the others. Mike Pence and Ted Cruz have FreedomWorks scores of 89% and 96% respectively. I hope he legislates exactly like them just to piss you off. I didn't realize you had such a hard-on for Jon Bruning.

 

[Anti-Neocon]

Here's a challenge to you: find one Dick Cheney endorsee who has not been an enemy of liberty.

Trey Grayson.

 

[Brian4Liberty]

He supports McConnell?

Related thread with full quote:

“I’m for better conservative ideas and more winsome persuasion,” Mr. Sasse said on MSNBC when asked if he would support Mr. McConnell for leader should he win election to the Senate. “I’m a team player and looking forward to supporting whoever our leader is.”

Asked again if that meant he would back Mr. McConnell, Mr. Sasse was more succinct: “Absolutely,” he said.

Nebraska got played, imo.

There was never a good choice in this race.

 

[Anti-Neocon]

Trey Grayson.

Grayson lost on Cheney's endorsement.

 

[MichaelDavis]

Here's a challenge to you: find one Dick Cheney endorsee who has not been an enemy of liberty.

Dick Cheney endorsed Marco Rubio over establishment favorite (and now Democrat) Charlie Crist. Rubio has a FreedomWorks score of 91%. FYI, Pete Ricketts did not include Cheney's endorsement on his website: http://petericketts.com/endorsement/

 

[Anti-Neocon]

Marco Rubio is an enemy of liberty. Why are you so obsessed with FreedomWorks scores? Oh I got it, because they ignore everything except fiscal issues.

FWIW, Rubio and Crist were both endorsed mostly by establishment figures, and Rubio has always been an establishment guy. The whole idea of him being some sort of grassroots candidate is pure fantasy.

Rubio was endorsed by: Romney, Huckabee, Giuliani, Jeb Bush, Pence, Ryan, and Santorum. Don't try to pretend that one is the estalishment and the other isn't. They're both anti-liberty scum. As is this new guy, who also got the Cheney/Pence/Ryan endorsements, and whose dad is running an anti-Amash PAC.

If you want someone who, at best will be Marco Rubio, then go join Ricketts' campaign team.

Well, Lee Terry is a rank and file loser who is basically a liberal. Nobody is that district likes him, he benefits from a lot of old GOPers who vote incumbent because he's "better than any democrat" ... I don't even have the time to show his atrocious record, but if its anything that grows govt and debt, he votes yes ...

 

[RandallFan]

It was the bailout. Terry has had close elections in the general as well.

Rep. Lee Terry, R-Neb., is quite familiar with Warren Buffett's feelings on taxes, thank you very much."Yes, I've had that thrown in my face a thousand times," Terry responded at a town hall meeting this week after being asked about his famously wealthy constituent for the second time in half an hour.

[speciallyblend]

I see him as another possible "tea party favorite" Marco Rubio.

I hope your post is sarcasm?? because marc Rubio is an establishment shill tool more reasons why the gop will fail. posts like yours shows why it is easy to fool liberty republicans and brainwashed republicans. can only assume your post IS SARCASM or more reason why the gop needs to FAIL!! Marc Rubio is a JOKE

 

[compromise]

Regardless of whether you think Sasse is real or not, he's widely perceived as a Tea Party candidate. And last week's Brannon defeat was widely perceived as a Tea Party defeat. It is beneficial for the cause of liberty to have a 'Tea Party victory' in NE as it helps gather momentum for candidates in other states like McDaniel.
