Don't you find it inexplicable that the RNC hasn't condemned NJ Senate candidate

Bob Hugin for openly stating that he's a "different type of republican", that he's "pro-choice" "pro-marriage equality", and that he supports "equal pay for equal work"? His TV spot has him saying this and that it's time to "send in the Marines". (Hugin is an ex-Marine.)

That's party heresy. Why is the RNC silent? Why are other Republicans around the country silent?

He can do whatever he wants so long as he agrees to be a vote to cover or facilitate their corruption and criminality...

...it's NEVER been about values, morals or any of their other red herrings... it's always been about power and control. And now that their usual Cult of the Clueless is aging and dying off, they'll go for ANYTHING that will bring the rubes in... even Donald tRump* and nazi boys.
