Mike Pence Not Running For Indiana Senate

Politico:

House Republican Conference Chairman Mike Pence (R-Ind.) is out again.

After saying he was not running for Evan Bayh's Senate seat a few weeks ago, Pence was beginning to reconsider with Bayh's surprising retirement announcement Monday. But now Pence is out for good, even though the seat is now one of the strongest candidates for a Republican takeover.

This guy looks like a flat-faced version of John Ensign. That look must be common in the GOP.

Speaking as a Hoosier, Pence is Indiana's male version of Sarah Palin insofar as intellect is concerned.

I think Pence had already supported Dan Coats. Ironically this all seems to be working out as quite a plan most likely in support of Big Pharma, Healthcare and Japanese Automakers.

Republican strategy the moment The President beat Hillary..
Plan A
1 - step up attacks about association of him having ter.ror.rists pals
2 - step up attacks of the (IST'S) ..marx ..social and so on
3 - use the term ''radical'' in every sentence every minute of every hour of every day
4 - slash and burn the economy as much possible
5 - LIE (entailing all of the above)

Republican strategy the moment The President took office
Plan B
1- step up attacks that he was soft on ter.ror.rists
2- Step up attacks that the Governement is taking over everything
3 - Complain that too much money is being spent ignoring the recent history or reasons why
4- hold up ALL procedures and votes and installation of department heads (PARALYZING GOVT.)
5 - LIE (for all of the above )

Republican strategy now and beyond
Plan C
1- say NO
2- welcome Joe Lieberman
3 - promise blue dog democrats ANYTHING to break with the President and split the party for a victory in Novemeber - take power -and claim to solve everything

Continuing the cycle of h8 and a two tier society with the backing of a right leaning SCOTUS...

GET OUT AND VOTE IN NOVEMEBER PEOPLE ...WARNING ...THIS IS OUR ONE CHANCE.

Pence if your party votes against bills they co-sponsor, how can you not be the party of NO?

Pence to NRO: "this administration has done a real number on us, smearing the GOP as the party of no."

Entire year of 2009 – on CSPAN archives- reveal GOP accusing Criminal ACORN- all based on the murdoch reporter- nothing but scare tactics on HCR

Pence relied on murdoch standard for resources as his voting and rhetoric- a Con Who Videotaped ACORN Arrested By FBI- Charged In Plot To Tap Sen. Mary Landrieu’s Phones http://bit.ly/9EOSuN

Pence- the "Little boy- African American" you spoke to at Salvation Army- tax relief to Billionaires was tried- HOW ARE THOSE JOBS - PENCE?

2009 - you continued to deceive people-Lewin Group is NOT a bi partisan respected research-Lewin Group/United Health Care/Heritage Foundation=

and 85% of AMERICANS ARE HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY with HEALTH INSURANCE

This is all on CSPAN sir- we see what you are

Mr CHRISITAN HYPOCRITE!

The Republicans have poisoned the well so bad they don't even want to drink the water. Voiovich says he is tired of the rancor and gridlock, but do you see him voting to end cloture ? NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So will we hear that this means the republicants are running scared since they have no new ideas?
You know, sort of the flip side of the chirping about Bayh?

I'm not holding my breath waiting for MSM to run with this. They will fall silent like they did when republicants lost NY-23, a seat they held since the civil war. Not-a-peep.

[BUSTERtheCAT]

and the hoouse passed the healthcare reform bill by ONE vote which was the NY23 vote, but the MSM only pursued the ONE republican who voted yes.

You could argue that the teabaggers along with Armey and Palin help pass the healthcare bill in the house, by messing up NY23rd

"You could argue that the teabaggers along with Armey and Palin help pass the healthcare bill in the house, by messing up NY23rd"


Big news and yet scant media coverage. Why was no one claiming it was a "turning point" or "the republicants were in disarray" like they did when Scott Brown won?
