The battle for the heart and soul of the Republican Party has begun. On one side is the Tea Party. On the other side stand Karl Rove and his establishment team, posing as tacticians while quietly undermining conservatism.

Yesterday, the New York Times reported that the “biggest donors in the Republican Party” have joined forces with Karl Rove and Steven J. Law, president of American Crossroads, to create the Conservative Victory Project. The Times reports that this new group will dedicate itself to “recruit seasoned candidates and protect Senate incumbents from challenges by far-right conservatives and Tea Party enthusiasts who Republican leaders worry could complicate the party’s effort to win control of the Senate.” The group points to candidates like Christine O’Donnell in Delaware and Richard Mourdock in Indiana as examples of Tea Party primary picks going sideways in major Senatorial battles.

But it is American Crossroads and its ilk that have run the GOP into the ground. Spending millions of dollars on useless 30,000-ft. advertising campaigns during the last election cycle, training candidates to soften conservatism in order to appeal to “moderates,” blowing up the federal budget under George W. Bush as a bipartisan tactic – all of those strategies led the party to a disastrous defeat in 2012. The Tea Party, which may nominate losers from time to time, also brought the Republicans their historic 2010 Congressional victory. If Tea Party candidates lose, it’s because they weren’t good candidates; if GOP establishment candidates lose, it’s because they weren’t good conservatives. The choice for actual conservatives should be easy.

But it isn’t. The Bush insider team that helped lead to the rise of Barack Obama insists that they, and only they, know the path to victory. As the Times reports, Conservative Victory Project won’t merely protect incumbents – it will challenge sitting Congresspeople of the Tea Party variety, including six-term Iowa Republican Rep. Steve King, who may run for Senate. “We’re concerned about Steve King’s Todd Akin problem,” Law told the Times – with whom he seems far too friendly. “This is an example of candidate discipline and how it would play in a general election. All of the things he’s said are going to be hung around his neck.”

This fat little troll irritates me as much as any full blown Leftist. He is the primary reason we lost the House and Senate in '06 and now he is blaming the Tea Party for the GOP's woes. If it wasn't for the TP, the GOP wouldn't even control the House right now. I also love how these establishment asshats gloss over all the loses on their side of the ledger last election cycle. There were all sorts of RINO dopes running and they all lost. Scott Brown, Mitt Romney, Tommy Thompson, Joe Kyrillos...there were tons of them that lost big.

The more I ruminate about this, the angrier I am getting.

I agree Frank! Never could stand the man. I cringe as much when Karl comes on Fox as I do when Whorealdo appears. I think it's his fault Bush was the way he was (compassionate, illegal loving) and it's Karl Rove that cost us 2008 and 2012 with his "big umbrella" liberal tendencies. He and the liberal media did everything they could to make the Tea Party appear as knuckle dragging, white supremacists. Jackass.

I never expected the guy in NJ to win. But conservatives got some splainin' to do when they put up candidates who can't win in IN or MO.

Karl Rove is one of the main reasons I stopped watching Fox. I can't stand the lying little toad!

If Rove subsequently became deranged then let's beat him at the ballot box in the primaries.
