A close examination of Senate hopeful Kelly Ayotte's FEC report confirms, today, that she is the candidate of Washington Republican insiders, not the people of New Hampshire.
The fundraising report details approximately $100K in contributions from the PACs of DC Republicans - including Rick Santorum, John Cornyn, Trent Lott, Mitch McConnell, and Jon Kyl. Each contributed generously to the Ayotte campaign.
Every society in the history of man has upheld the institution of marriage as a bond between a man and a woman. Why? Because society is based on one thing: that society is based on the future of the society. And that's what? Children. Monogamous relationships. In every society, the definition of marriage has not ever to my knowledge included homosexuality. That's not to pick on homosexuality.

"It does not affect your daily life very much if your neighbor marries a box turtle. But that does not mean it is right. . . . Now you must raise your children up in a world where that union of man and box turtle is on the same legal footing as man and wife."
"I want to say this about my state: When Strom Thurmond ran for president, we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years, either," Lott said at last week's party.
...During the campaign, [Thurmond] said, "All the laws of Washington and all the bayonets of the Army cannot force the Negro into our homes, our schools, our churches."
"I hear [Hillary] hasn't been this worried since a new Hooters opened" near her home with former President Bill Clinton, McConnell said, prompting laughs from the 400 Northern Kentucky Republicans.
