Over the dangerous SOPA/PIPA bills.
I’m personally – surprise, surprise! – more in line with RedState’s main position, which is that when you set out to train a mule you first must get the mule’s attention. Or, in this case, an elephant’s. That means threatening primary challenges… which is something that, by and large, the Online Left opposing SOPA/PIPA will not do.
Speaking purely objectively: they should start, frankly. The Right has gotten a lot of bills killed over the years with a well-placed growl at just the right moment…

It’s apparently working. Rubio’s pulled his support. https://www.facebook.com/SenatorMarcoRubio/posts/340889625936408
Yeah, my email box just exploded with that one. 🙂 Seriously, that was the idea: I mean, almost nobody on the Right really wants to primary Rubio over this, but we were going to, and he knew it. 😉
Whether or not I agree with the notion of primary-ing Rubio over this, I get the argument for, I’m REALLY glad it’s not going to happen. Rubio has a huge following here in FL and is very well liked and respected. That primary fight would have been helpful to no one.
