DICK ARMEY: "DON'T CONFUSE ME WITH THE FACTS"

In a NYT article about the NY-23 special election, Dick Armey has this to say:
“I think the Republican Party missed its first big opportunity to differentiate itself from big government liberalism and get back to being the party of Reagan,” said Mr. Armey, who now heads the FreedomWorks Foundation. “When we’re like us, we win. And when we’re like them, we lose.

Earlier in the article, we have this nugget:
“This is the shot that needs to be fired to Republican leaders to wake them up,” said former Representative Marilyn Musgrave of Colorado, who was one of the most outspoken conservatives in Congress until her defeat last year.

Musgrave LOST in Colorado despite being a hardcore conservative. Someone tell Armey.
