Nobody Likes Bass - Not Even Jennifer Horn('s Cheerleaders)

Is she threatening him?

[Jennifer Horn] also warned "if we are not happy with our representation, we will run again" (emphasis on 'we') and will "put a true conservative in this seat."

And this doesn't tell you that we need to do everything we can to capitalize on the other side's collective "meh" about Charlie, I don't know what will. From the right-wing diarist:

Some feel that we should vote for Charlie Bass, simply because he won the Party primary; some will hold their nose as they vote for him, but are not likely to provide any campaign support; some are considering a protest write-in; others prefer to do nothing.

Fired up, ready to... do nothing.

Well, her cheerleaders over at Granite Grok have sworn off Charlie Bass, this cycle. Apparently hoping for redder pastures, two years from now.

Her [Annie Kuster] opponent is former congressman Charlie Bass. Here's his voting record: He voted against requiring a photo ID for people to vote in federal elections (thus helping the Democrats to continue massive vote fraud operations); he voted to allow minors to be transported across state lines for abortions, without the knowledge or consent of their parents; he voted to keep the moratorium on offshore oil drilling; he voted to prohibit drilling for oil in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge; he voted to begin implementing the economy-killing Kyoto Protocols; he voted in favor the the "McCain-Feingold incumbent protection bill" (which was and is a direct attack on the First Amendment); he voted to approve huge budget deficits under President Bush; he supported the economy-killing "cap and trade" plan; and he voted against protecting the property rights of private citizens in zoning disputes. Bass describes himself as a "moderate," and is in the same category with Republicans such as Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, and Arnold Swartznegger, all of whom are in the "Republican Main Street Partnership" with him (some would call it the "Main Street RINO Partnership").

...If Bass gets into office, he will camoflage himself with a few strategic votes to make him "look" like a conservative...but he won't be. And when the chips are down, he will be unreliable.

In short, Charlie Bass will be a continuing danger to both conservatives and to the Republican Party. Yet he will "portray" himself as a Republican conservative. If allowed to do so, it will be harder in 2012 to pry him out of the CD-2 congressional seat in order to put a real conservative in office (especially with the incumbent-protection measures he has supported in the past, such as the egregious McCain-Feingold mess).

By "real conservative," they most certainly mean Jennifer Horn.

The irony is, that Horn's mob have been screamimg bloody murder about how Giuda's candidacy cost Jennifer Horn the nomination. Now, it seems, that Jennifer Horn's 2012 campaign will help lend to Charlie Bass losing in 2010.

The buck stops with Charlie, for sure. He is just terrible for NH-02.
