Really? The last I heard the trial will be in September.

Admittedly, I’m not up on the latest...

People in sufficient numbers have learned the “black” thing ain’t going so well—Obama.

Rangel and Waters are a reminder, without further discussion being necessary.

This aspect, together with the bad economy, heaalth care, immigration where significant, point towards the opposing party.

Thus far the GOP has been fairly low key—why say much when the opponent is falling down on his own?

Prediction: narrow majority for GOP in the House, but not the Senate.

The GOP might have effective control on issues.

Obviously the ethical standards in Washington are racist.

White tax cheat and human-elf mongrel Geitner gets away with it and still heads up the Dept of Non-Recovery and Deficit Spending, while Carribean Charlie gets raked over the coals for his 20-year lapse of memory to pay taxes on his rental condos.

It’s really unfair.

JH2, I know the conventional wisdom, that this means bad things for the RATS come November. I don't see it changes anything.

The 1994 GOP resurgence was, to some degree (IMO) because of the Contract. I think it also had to do with ethics. As I look back I remember Rostenkowski, the Post Office, and the House Bank. That had, I think, a real influence on the mindset of voters.

I wouldn't have dreamed BJ could survive Lewinsky. At one point after the scandal hit he had 65% approval rating.

My appraisal of the electorate mindset is more heavily influenced by 1998 than 1994.

Instead of being "just about sex," it will be "all about racism." The revolution, Comrade, will be reported by the journolists of the MSM.
