The People Spoke

America is on the march.

Yesterday was a preview of what we can hope to achieve in November. It was a stunning rebuke of the GOP old guard who failed us under the Bush Administration, and a kick in the head to the Democrat national socialist party.

The most visible proof of the emerging power of the people was Christine O'Donnell. Atlas endorsed O'Donnell on May 5 here: Absolute Atlas Endorsement: CHRISTINE O'DONNELL.

Carl Paladino pulled it out in NY, big time. Come November, candidates who stand for the founding principles of our great nation are poised to win. But more than that, ideal men like Lt Colonel Allen West, Ilario Pantano, et al, are running for office and poised to win.

Of course, in my bluer than blue state of New York, the rotting party elected the crooked thief Charles Rangel, but what could you expect from a corrupt political machine hearkening back to Tammany Hall? But that is indicative of nothing........ the moochers and the looters will not win the day. Let's see how he fares in November.

Republican Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell addresses supporters after winning the Republican nomination for Senate in Delaware, 14 Sep 2010

Republican Senate candidate Christine O'Donnell addresses supporters after winning the Republican nomination for Senate in Delaware, 14 Sep 2010

In U.S. politics, the conservative and libertarian wave known as the Tea Party movement claimed another significant victory on Tuesday in a Republican Senate primary in the small eastern state of Delaware.  It is the latest example of how Tea Party activists have had success this year in defeating established Republican candidates.  The question is how will Tea Party-endorsed candidates do against Democrats in the November midterm congressional elections?  

Add Delaware to a growing list of Senate primaries where Tea Party activists took on more established Republican candidates and won.

"Don't ever underestimate the power of 'We, the People'!" said Christine O'Donnell was given little chance of defeating experienced Republican Mike Castle in the Republican Party's primary for Senate.  But thanks to support from Tea Party activists and an endorsement from former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, O'Donnell was able to tap into voter anger that is having a huge impact on the Republican Party this election year.
[...]
"This past year, we have seen an uprising of everyday Americans who are fighting to take back their country," O'Donnell said. "And I have been fortunate enough to earn their support, and they had their voice heard last night."

Republicans had long expected Mike Castle to prevail in the primary and go on to win the Senate seat in November, which would have been a major boost to their hopes of retaking control of the Senate.
[....]

In addition to Delaware, Tea Party supporters have scored primary victories this year in Colorado, Connecticut, Kentucky, Nevada and Utah.

The Tea Party is not a political party, but a grassroots conservative and libertarian movement focused on cutting taxes and government spending.  The name of the movement refers to a colonial American tax protest in 1773 known as the Boston Tea Party.   

We have only just begun. More results thanks to Stacy McCain:

About

Because


  • "I would give the greatest sunset in the world for one sight of New York's skyline. Particularly when one can't see the details. Just the shapes. The shapes and the thought that made them. The sky over New York and the will of man made visible. What other religion do we need? And then people tell me about pilgrimages to some dank pesthole in a jungle where they go to do homage to a crumbling temple, to a leering stone monster with a pot belly, created by some leprous savage. Is it beauty and genius they want to see? Do they seek a sense of the sublime? Let them come to New York, stand on the shore of the Hudson, look and kneel. When I see the city from my window - no, I don't feel how small I am - but I feel that if a war came to threaten this, I would throw myself into space, over the city, and protect these buildings with my body."
    Ayn Rand
