The establishment strikes back. Well, the Utah establishment anyway.

One word, my friends: RINOlution.

As a result, Lee’s approval ratings in Utah have cratered, and prominent Republicans and local business executives are openly discussing the possibility of mounting a primary challenge against him. Top Republicans are also maneuvering to redesign the party’s nomination system in a way that would likely make it more difficult for Lee to win reelection in 2016…

Spencer Zwick, a Utah native and national finance chairman for Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign, was more direct, calling Lee a “show horse” who “just wants to be a spectacle.”

“Business leaders that I talk to, many of whom supported him, would never support his reelection and in fact will work against him, myself included,” Zwick said…

“You don’t have ideological wack-jobs,” [former Utah Gov. Jon] Huntsman said. “For all of its labeling as a red state, underneath it all Utah is a pretty pragmatic Western state, a just-get-it-done ethos.”

Lee is for limited government so the GOPe redesigns the party’s nomination system so it shuts him out--counter productive crybabies they are

I know how dare somebody rock the boat and slash gov.--we at the GOPe must have business as usual and elect more of us and then sunshine and lollypops will be shooting out of your ass and all things will be a republican utopia

More infighting. All the headlines should be now about how unbelievably awful Obamacare is and here we are providing another distraction. So shame on these folks.

It's valid or why would the gop do this--

That's not valid and you should know that.

ObamaCare totally sucks and good intentions that get you high fives but nothing else don't make heroes and seldom get rewarded by those who feel negatively effected.
