one of the other election results coming uh... yesterday was the unseating of
richard lugar long-time center actually belong with serving republican senators
are six terms in the u_s_ senate from indiana he was unseated in the primary
by a man named richard murdoch but crazy man named richard murdoch but didn't say
that properly
uh... yesterday but overwhelmingly i mean he got uh... six of the sixty one
thirty nine uh... there as well maybe sixty one forty
uh... so we were was put out to pasture out to make way for a very conservative
uh... and very divisive
mandy and richard murdoch a tea party candidate here is richard lugar giving
his concession speech
last evening
i_q_s graduation
richard murdoch
on his victory in a hard-fought race
i want to see a republican in the white house
i want to see my friend mitch mcconnell
have a republican majority in the senate
i hope that uh... richard murdoch prevails november
so we can contribute
that republican majority in the senate
hoosiers deserve the best representation possible
they deserve legislators who will listen for their entire spectrum
of citizen views
and work to achieve consensus
they deserve legislators to each day
go to work thinking about how they can solve problem
we are experiencing deep
political divisions in our society right now
and these divisions have stalemated progress in critical areas
for these divisions are not insurmountable
i believe that people of goodwill
regardless of party can work together for the benefit of our country
others richard lugar uh...
bob desimails like the third time he's been doing the analyst
fifty some but he is a very intractable ical figure uh... he is that you know by
all accounts a decent man but anyone who says that's my friend mitch mcconnell
i have questions about to begin with the empire it was attempted endorsement of
of murdoch i wouldn't be surprised to see
uh... lugar sit it out and not actually endorse murdoch up but what is it safe
tricia that this is still happening the tea party is still alive but there's
this still they're still looking you guys like orrin hatch tech and richard
lugar as being too far to the left
why it is that the most polarized political territory in my adult life
time i i've never i'd never thought
that the differences in world the u_n_ approach with the console in transfer
that did you have this
significant political subculture
it's in not only intractable what uninterested in listening the idea of in
a civil debate and discussion in reconsideration i mean you know
open-minded is extremely important you know i mean i see from my vague
professionally and in a but but it's important to be some persuade a bomb out
that you're being indoctrinated but but that your persuade herbal based on
evidence based on new new thinking and put this rigidity is profoundly
dangerous it is the kind of polarization that makes democracy almost impossible
so it's very dangerous yet i and and so is richard markup dangerous anyway i was
actually i don't know i a bit of the listless listen to uh... uh... richard
murdoch here there's a responsible lugar said uh... yesterday
well i have a mindset that says that bipartisanship are consistent democrats
coming to the republican point of view
you know i've said many times in this campaign that one of the things i hope
to do is tell building conservative republican majority in the united states
senate and continue to help the house bill the republican majority and have a
republican white house and then bipartisanship becomes having democrats
come our way so uh... that so we're working towards and i think in the days
ahead mister leung join our effort
it seems odd wendy thirty tessa decrying partisanship all the time and she thinks
that the way to get bit he digs partisanship is a disaster
he thinks that there's no effectiveness unless you can just feel
yet that's what he says let's listen in and talk about that just move quickly
here this richard murdoch
him i don't think there's going to be a lot of successful compromised
hints you have the deadlock we have today
so what i hear you say is that you're not going to compromise infect the only
cut by a he'll do is really getting other people on the other side while to
come to your side of the accent which i guess is the yet
definition against compromised he said this theater played a leading candidate
for national political effectiveness
true also political effectiveness
you're saying is not possible with compromise some people would say
political effectiveness in the senate actually requires compromiser
and proper sold o'brien right uh... ah
but instead of running as joe donnelly democrat there are rumors that lugar
will not endorse and there are some people they're trying to get the ruined
or sold bomber trying to get the word endorse donnelly but said this guy's
just too far to the right
in the senate he won't movable runs independence is in the republican tried
and true
by the republican from another era apparently
