So Liz Cheney will primary Mike Enzi. Enzi has 93% ACU rating, 100% National Right to Life, voted against amnesty.

Serious question: What did I miss about Mike Enzi that he needs to be primaried? Not being sarcastic. I must have missed something.

@sunnyright Internet tax bill was the main one. He seemed wobbly throughout the Obamacare fight but voted no, has been on warpath since.

One complication: Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has said he’ll back the incumbent.

Liz Cheney will challenge Enzi, but this won't be a usual tea-party primary. Rand Paul, for one, is backing Enzi http://t.co/vpYMukiW4D

So Wyoming, who do you vote for? The establishment? Or the daughter of the establishment?
