Fascinating morning, isn’t it? The REALLY amazing part that isn’t getting as much coverage is how many long time blue states are now red- governors, legislatures etc. I mean come ON, Ohio? Pennsylvania? Michigan? Maine? The list goes on. This will be incredibly helpful for 2012...just imagine the reception the president will get when he campaigns in Ohio.

Rand Paul is starting a Tea PArty Caucus...wants to include senators as well- said it hasn’t been done before and he thinks it will be good to mix up ideas etc. I think he, Rubio and Allen West will be very vocal :) Chris Matthews and assorted MSNBC panel all agreed this morning Rand Paul is the real deal- Matthews called him a true Goldwater Republican!!!

I see tons of behind the scenes action being taken by Obama- avoiding the Congress and making changes through regulations etc in the various agencies. He is not going to be interesting in “reaching accross the aisle”. The man is simply incapable of humility- even the appearance of it will be a challenge for him.

One the the SWEETEST victories of the night was Kirk in Illinois taking OBama’s Senate seat.

He can’t stand it that, we-—the enemy-—got it over him. I mean Gilounnias and Sestak lose BECAUSE M/M O begged for votes?

I see tons of supersecret, behind the scenes actions being taken by Obama- avoiding the Congress----and making changes through executive order and sub rosa regulations, etc, in the various agencies headed by his hand-picked idealogical czars. Obama is not going “reach across the aisle.” The man is simply incapable of humility- even the appearance of it will be a challenge for him.

Nice take.

We know for a fact that O considers the rest of us his "enemies." I would venture that hateful remark of his was the cause of more Republican votes than he realizes.

RE :”Common ground? Baloney. Betcha O and his spinners will dig out “victory” in the Dem disaster.

Let me try some for fun :)

Come on Liz, everyone knows that the party in power loses the midterm election. It could have been much worse. Republicans should have done better. Harry Reid was proof that Dems had a great night, a huge victory in fact. Pelosi was the most successful speaker in history passing more bills than any-other speaker. Dems lost so many house seats because they made those tough choices on principle to move this country forward. They put principle ahead of politics. Now Obama has Republicans where he wants them. BLA_BLA_BLA

I DVRed MSNBC excuses from 7pm to 4am. FNC was much more rational. They were saying what I have been posting, that the Reid Senate majority will make Obama's political job more difficult for 2012.

At a pre- Nov 2 campaign stop: "Barack, you think these cheering suckers will vote Democrat, again, after all your screwups."

" My screwups? You the one who went globe-trotting to Spain. That dumba** trip killed my agenda for good."

ROTFL----so good----needs a repeat.

O FINDS "VICTORY" IN DEM DISASTER: "It could have been much worse. Republicans should have done better. Harry Reid was proof that Dems had a great night, a huge victory in fact. Pelosi was the most successful speaker in history passing more bills than any-other speaker. Dems lost so many House seats because they made those tough choices on principle to move this country forward. They put principle ahead of politics. Now Obama has Republicans where he wants them."

Reid's Senate majority will make Obama's political job more difficult for 2012.

I'll buy that.

Reid will be the whipping boy for anything that goes wrong........for Dems and Repubs.

I wonder if the little jerk can withstand the pressure. Well, he can always call loser "Rory No Name"-----to commiserate. ROTFL.

Add IN-9 Todd Young to that list.

BTW Mike Pence just said it’s a win for the American people not for the GOP....trump that bummer.
Pence: “We will repeal OBamacare, lock, stock and barrel”....GO Pence...GO young Guns!.

PENCE:“We will repeal OBamacare, lock, stock and barrel”....we will dig it out of the ground....every branch and root."

BETTER MOVE FAST REPUBS: The whole thing is a "structure" purposefully designed to change America. Ohaha’s got BIG plans, much much BIGGER PLANS. Ohaha keeps saying: "I'm not tired. I'm just getting started." We ain't seen nuttin' yet.

O's healthcare nightmare.

The Chart that Will Infuriate Taxpayers: ........diligent personnel could not fit all of O'Care's new law’s boards, commissions, mandates, and other elements on this chart. So they created “bundles of bureaucracy.” Seven collective symbols respectively represent clusters of four loan repayment and forgiveness programs, four other new regulatory programs, 17 insurance mandates, 19 special-interest provisions, 22 other new bureaucracies, 26 other new demonstration and pilot programs, and 59 other new grant programs.....

These 151 additional items within Obamacare do not appear individually on this diagram. As Representative Brady explains, “If we included all of these units, this chart (above) would be three times larger.”

========================================================

O/CARE will transfer to the Obama Admin, authority in a number of ways over the lives of Americans, and their businesses. Once govt gets control of medical care, all the defining, controlling features of socialist govt can be introduced, one by one. E-v-e-r-y-thing Americans do is related to health.

O/CARE Page 58 and 59: The government will have real-time access to an individual’s bank account and will have the authority to make electronic fund transfers from those accounts.

Socialized health care is impossible without seizing private medical records----BUT the 4th Amendment prohibits seizure without warrants. He'll do it anyway.

Obama is going to try and spin this whole conservative mandate as a vote for ‘bi-partisanship’. Make no doubt though...Obama’s marxist agenda is DOA!

I don’t see him resigning or ‘disappearing’ yet, but still see it happening before his first term is up.

Quick question...does the Bawney Frank win mean that he can’t be questioned in congressional hearings?

Also heard Pence tell Bill Hemmer he and his family are prayerfully considering the future...in answer to Bill’s question about running for POTUS :) Unless there are things I don’t know about him- I’m very favorably inclined toward him...

NEW names, NEW blood...no more Romney, Huckabee, Gingrich etc.

Pence/Good guy...but we want to keep him in IN...Gov or Senator first....THen the country can have him.

Have been trying to find out how the conservative AA caucus did...Know West won...How did the others do? That’s another group that will become very vocal once they get “organized”.

Issa will be going after a lot of skeletons.

Issa has eye on subpoena team
Politico via Flopping Aces | 6/18/2010 | James Hohmann and Jake Sherman
FR Posted June 19 by IllumiNaughtyByNature

HERSHEY, PA — Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Cali), the conservative firebrand whose specialty is lobbing corruption allegations at the Obama White House, is making plans to hire dozens of subpoena-wielding investigators if Republicans win the House this fall.

The California Republican’s daily denunciations draw cheers from partisans and bookings from cable TV producers. He even bought his own earphone for live shots. But his bombastic style and attention-seeking investigations draw eye rolls from other quarters.

Now, he’s making clear he won’t be so easy to shrug off if he becomes chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in 2011. Issa has told Republican leadership that if he becomes chairman, he wants to roughly double his staff from 40 to between 70 and 80. And he is not subtle about what that means for President Barack Obama.

At a recent speech to Pennsylvania Republicans here, he boasted about what would happen if the GOP wins 39 seats, and he gets the power to subpoena. -- snip--
