NEAL BOORTZ: SOCIAL CONSERVATIVES WILL KEEP REPUBLICANS FROM TAKING SENATE
On Thursday, semi-retired radio talker Neal Boortz predicted the Republican Party will not win control of the U.S. Senate in the 2014 midterm elections, despite all the pitfalls the Democrats and President Barack Obama are facing, particularly with regards to Obamacare.
The reason, Boortz said, would be the GOP’s tendency to run on issues related to social conservatism.
Boortz explained the importance to the republic for a GOP win next year while guest hosting Sean Hannity’s Thursday radio show:
- This whole thing about Phil Robertson and what have you – it speaks a
lot to what we have coming up in the election next year. We desperately
need to get the Democrats out of control of the United States Senate. The
survival of our republic may depend on getting the Democrats out of
control of the Senate, sending Harry Reid into the position of minority
leader in the U.S. Senate – the survival of the republic may depend on
that. And the Democrats are afraid that is indeed what is going to
happen. That is why Harry Reid pulled the nuclear option a couple of
weeks ago – because they were afraid we may lose the Senate.
- Let me tell you what I think is going to happen – I don’t think the
Republicans are going to take the Senate next year. They’ll keep the
House, but they’re not going to get the Senate and I’ll tell you why –
because they simply cannot resist the urge, the impulse to get into this
social conservatism. The Republicans can’t run on fiscal responsibility.
The Republicans, they can’t get out there and say, ‘Look, we are
trillions of dollars in debt.’ They can’t stick to that. They can’t say,
‘We need private sector options to ObamaCare that can give people choices
in the private marketplace.’ They can’t do that. They can’t stick to
fiscal conservatism. They can’t stick to the small government message.
The Republicans have this drive, this maniacal, this obsessive drive to
get into social conservatism.
