GOP Poor Sports

In any game, there is a winner and a loser. In politics, the same goes. However, those who feel like they have more power than they really do, clearly do not understand this simple philosophy. This is especially true in the GOP Primaries this year. The fact is, when you represent a political party, you are asking the voters to pick the best candidate to face the other party. When one loses, they should listen to the "will of the people". Let's take a look at a few mainstream Republican candidates who despite losing their primary battle, cannot accept losing. Once again, this points to the power grab these people have. Once one has been exposed to D.C. for so long, they may not know any better until the public reminds them it's OUR country, not these lifer politicians.

• Delaware- The upstart conservative Christine O'Donnell beat the party favorite, Mike Castle. It's true that Castle had a better chance of winning the general election. Nonetheless, Castle still takes his toys and goes home. Instead of endorsing the party candidate, he says the wackos of the GOP helped get O'Donnell elected. Sound like a poor loser to you?
  Alaska- Lisa Murkowski was beaten by the impressive Tea Party candidate Joe Miller. Murkowski has decided that she needs more power grabbing of Washington in her future. So she's decided to be a write-in candidate. She will surely lose. She's lucky this is a GOP state, or else she would have essentially split the GOP vote and give the senate seat to a Democrat. Very productive! And to make matters worse, she spits on the voters by saying Miller is "extreme". So apparently the voters don't know better. But when you look at the resumes, Miller's dwarfs sweet ole Lisa's! He's a magistrate judge, graduated from West Point, served two wars, etc.
• Florida- Getting trounced in polling for the GOP primary, slicki-minded Charlie Crist decided to abandon the GOP to become an Independent. And for a while, things were working. He was leading in the polls. But now the true is coming out on this man with no integrity. Marco Rubio is destroying both Crist and the Democrat. The sad part is Crist promised to not leave the GOP once Rubio caught fire. Lie #1. And secondly, he pretty much killed his own political future. He left the GOP, the Dems don't want him. If he would have just taken the beating like a good soldier, he could have challenged the very beatable Democrat Nelson in the next senate election in '12. Oh well, we hopefully will never hear or see from this phony again!
