    He did us a favor and we keep the seat as long as Padgett gets on the ballot. Conrad Burns should have done the same in Montana, but now we have to defend this guy.

    Being a conservative stands above being a Republican.

    If the candidate is counter to your core values then don’t defend them. Skip them on the ballot. The alternative may be worse in the short term but we must work to affect change in the GOP. Defending these Republicans does more harm than good.
