No Lamar Alexander

Lamar Alexander is Tennessee's version of Lindsey Graham. Alexander campaigns in Tennessee like he is Ronald Reagan and votes in Washington like he is Nelson Rockefeller. In the past, Alexander would have been called a Republican in name only (RINO), but he perfectly fits the mainstream of GOP elites now, who can no longer be categorized as moderate having become outright progressives while hiding that fact from their conservative voting base back home. There are a few old-line conservatives like Jeff Sessions, Mike Lee, Rand Paul, and Ted Cruz, but the bulk of the GOP are now perfectly content to gripe occasionally about Obama while voting with Obama and Democrats more often than not. Every six years, Lamar Alexander pretends to be a conservative to lure our votes. Joe Carr is always an authentic conservative, not just at election time. If you want real opposition to Obama, vote out Lamar, elect Joe Carr.
