We hear some rumblings of third party candidacy from a lot of the Republican, party boss supported, primary losers. This shows that Republicans are capable of being elitist snobs too. I hope than Inga Bart, sitting in tonight for The Great One, is correct when she suggests that this is 'Temporary Insanity.' That probably is the case with'Tokyo Rove.' See today's post at A Time for Choosing:

The above link discusses the reaction of some of the losers, focusing in on Mike Castle, loosing Republican favored by the national and Delaware party elites. Representative Castle, however is no traitor to the conservative cause because he never was a conservative. He barely qualifies as a RINO and he might have switched parties after the election if he had won. If he had won, I do not think Delaware Republicans could have held their noses tightly enough. The above linked article has great facts and statistics that expose him beyond doubt.
Another potential Benedict Arnold is Lisa Markowski of Alaska, who was defeated by the Sarah Palin backed Tea Party Republican Constitutional common-sense Reagan conservative, Joe Miller. (Quite a title!) Ms. Markowski, from a long-time Alaskan political family, threatened to run as a write-in or third party candidate against Miller. This would be high treason and the height of arrogance. Any Teaparty candidate facing such a challenge should be supported with all the resources we can muster. Candidate Miller will have to beat both the Democrat and the establishment Republican elitist, and Yes he can.
Tea Party Conservatives held their noses and supported John McCain, as they always have at least as long back as Rockefeller. What has now happened to the party unity form the John McCain/Dole/Ford type elites? Apparently it only applies when they win.
