House Democrats Are About to Become Unemployment Statistics
The Wall Street Journal ^ | 04-23-10 | JOHN FUND

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer's gloomy November forecast.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer gave a gloomy assessment of his party's prospects at a media breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor this week. When reminded that political handicapper Charlie Cook is predicting a loss of 30 to 40 seats and perhaps more for House Democrats this fall, Mr. Hoyer didn't push back. "It's an accurate view of what the polls reflect right now. Yes. I have great respect for Charlie Cook." Democrats would lose control of the House if they drop 40 seats.

Mr. Hoyer went on to say he believes a strong Democratic campaign can still save a House majority for his party. He said a bleak job picture is blinding voters to improvements in the economy in other areas.

A lot of time until November. Never underestimate the Republican ability to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.

“He said a bleak job picture is blinding voters to improvements in the economy in other areas.”

Those who are unemployed and cannot find work are unpersuaded by millionaires gains on Wall St.

Honestly its not the republicans I fear. Its republican voters who will let the GOP get away with anything rather than criticize them.

Right now we have a party in power that is hell bent on eliminating political opposition forever. That cannot be forgotten, nor should it be forgiven. Its going to take harsh measures by the GOP to clean up the mess that both parties helped to make. Men like Frank, Dodd, and Rangel need to go to prison and making deals should not be an option. We need good clean republicans and dirty republicans should face the exact same fate as dirty democrats.

We let these radical Marxists slip back into the shadows in the 60s and 70s and now they have power. This cannot happen again.
