#1 Nearly eight years of total Obama regime failure and she targets our own trenches? Feckless, beltway party self-blame and mindless bloviating. Will the GOP never gain an understanding of the common man and his concerns for matters outside Washington? Rhetorical of course....

#2 Well there IS enough blame to go around. The GOPe bears some major responsibility for what's happened.

#3 Yes, certainly true. My concern is the platform she used and the not so veiled references to Trump. Like many of us, he has his warts and the downward tenor of the 'reasoned discourse' cannot be debated. Fixating on blame is a very poor theme however. I'm concerned that they [D.C. pub establishment] may never get behind the obvious frontrunner.

#4 Rebuttal to the Democrat State of the Union aims at Republicans. This says all that needs to be said about the Republican establishment.

#5 It would seem that a bit of contrition from the GOP was long overdue. And it was absolutly neccessary they rebutted the Donald's foolish statements. Expect him to respond by questioning if Haley whitens her teeth or if they're even real.

#6 The establishment would rather increase the risk losing the next election than have Trump as president. That says a lot.

#7 Exactly. The national GOP has become the California GOP -- they would rather be right, and pat themselves on the back, than in office.

#8 And it was absolutly neccessary they rebutted the Donald's foolish statements.

Why? That's not the job of the GOP's responder to the State of the Union. She's supposed to be on *our* team. Our team might win with the Donald at the top of the ticket.

#9 This is the DC elites trying to destroy Trump. She was directed to do this. I call her a Rhino or a puppet but she certainly can no longer be trusted. Like many other Republicans they find it easier to side with Democrats that to be with their own. Trump is not a club member.

#10 In the end, Trump needs the establishment pubs to vote for him against the beast. Think big tent. Trump would benefit from minority votes to. Haley's is entitled to an opinion and she can help.
