Andrew Sullivan is beyond despair that Americans are rejecting socialism and reject terminal decline. The American people are going to repudiate Obamcare, to put their foot down on Obamaism. They understand perfectly well what the Democrats are seeking to do. Yes, even in liberal Massachusetts!

I seem to recall that there’s been an effort to label the Republican party as the “party of no.” From this article, it seems like “just say no” has been a pretty good strategy. Otherwise, everything that people are rebelling against would be labeled as “bipartisan” and the Republicans would be sinking right along with Obama.

There’s a great opportunity for the “party of no” here, if someone with the guts to do it steps up.

Christie had a 1 point lead. He won by 4+. The state run media polls say Scott leads by 5 points. He will probably win by 10+. The Left is in deep denial and they think its a public relations problem. The truth is Americans don't want any of what they are offering. What Americans are waking up is the fact whatever the government gives you comes with a price tag. And the price for that is their considered judgment, too high. That is what happening, nothing less and nothing more. The American people are not stupid.

This is a nihilist moment, built from a nihilist strategy in order to regain power .

Can you really be that stupid, Sullivan? The nasty little creep in the White House was raised by nihilists. Ayers, Alinsky, the Columbia crowd, the New Left radicals. Nothing but haters bent on destroying the greatest nation in the history of the world so they can replace it with hell on earth. Get help, you jerk.

From the article: "This is a nihilist moment, built from a nihilist strategy in order to regain power ... to do nothing but wage war against enemies at home and abroad."

Yeah, but I like the idea of doing nothing but waging war against enemies at home and abroad, especially those at home.

Is this geared for an 8 year old?

Yes MSNBC is geared for the 8 year old mentality.

I’m offended.

The GOP had little to do with most of what is happening here. Brown, MA citizens, conservatives, tea party members...lay into us all you want. I’ll gladly accept some credit. But please...don’t inflate the GOP’s role here Andrew.

Bears repeating. This was in fact a grass roots victory by the people. Scott Brown had the best line in the last five years when he told the slug David Gergen that the Senate Seat belonged to the people of Massachusetts and not Ted Kennedy. I'm encouraged by this and the tea party movements around the country. People have fought hard and long for their freedom and aren't about to let creeps like the Obama administration and the RATS in congress take it from them without a fight. Even Massachusetts understands this.

Andy Dear, You can't just use words willynilly at your whim. Your beloved Socialist beliefs sprang almost whole from 19th century German-Russian Nihilism. You don't get to call a Conservative Republican a nihilist if the term best describes your own pathetic World view.

Ni⋅hil⋅ism   /ˈnaɪəˌlɪzəm, ˈni-/ [nahy-uh-liz-uhm, nee-]
–noun
the principles of a Russian revolutionary group, active in the latter half of the 19th century, holding that existing social and political institutions must be destroyed in order to clear the way for a new state of society and employing extreme measures, including terrorism and assassination.

Philosophy.

a. an extreme form of skepticism: the denial of all real existence or the possibility of an objective basis for truth.

b. nothingness or nonexistence. 1810–20; < L nihil nothing (var. of nihilum; see nil ) + -ism

I didn’t know that Scott Brown attended jump school. That is cool.

Aids dementia seems to have struck Sullivan and Chas Johnson/LGF....these 2 are a couple of freaks that circle the outer limits of sanity. BTW is Chas. Johnson also gay?

I STILL can’t believe that’s a GUY!

That's Chris Crocker.

Think of him as a very feminine gay boy who dresses and wears makeup to look like a girl.
