So many jokes to be had with this thread title lulz
He might be able to mount a come back and Alaska is fertile ground for our message. If not we can always find someone else to run in Alaska.Ron and Rand have made their own mistakes, but not on those topics. Of course the best example is Joe Miller... we lost a good liberty candidate because his campaign made some dumb mistakes.

Graham is so bad I'd prefer many (D)s over him. I'd love to see him knocked out in the primaries. Thanks for starting the thread.
I agree I will back Davis to take out Graham, but to be honest I'm not keen on the title of this thread.
I think Tom Davis can do this.
The thing about unseating a Senator during the primary is that the candidate we pick HAS to win the general. There is a media meme out there that the Republican party is shooting themselves in the foot by ousting sure-fire winners during the primary, only to have the seat go democratic in the general. Now, we all know the reasons that meme is being perpetrated, but it exists none the less.
This cannot be understated to this movement. If we win the primary, we cannot lose the general. This will take resources and the right candidate. Davis can do this because of his name recogntion and standing in the party. We have to be selective when we make these choices. We can't simply primary someone out of their seat if it means our guys loses the general - that does more harm than good. Instead of turning the party in our favor, it turns them against us.
(see Mourdock, Akin, O'Donnell, Mack, Mandel... I know some of them don't fit our mold, but they fit the media's narrative)
Davis was Sanford's Chief of Staff.

How did Ron not get this guy's endorsement. I am barely familiar with Sanford but from this I'm very impressed. I would hope for his endorsement of Rand in 2016, along with Demint and Davis.
