Corker has to go too. He personally crowed to me about bringing back the bacon after he stole my hog.

Electorate was dumb enough to give control of congress to the democrats in 2006—let them keep control and elect Obama in 2008

GOP took congress in 94 and Clinton won in 96

GOP never got the message out that the economic crisis was caused by the democrats and never fought back when Bush was accused of botching the Katrina fiasco again the democrat governor and mayors fault

And the GOP behind BUSH acted like liberal big spenders

Unless there are changes the boob public can just as easily lose their minds again in 2012

“We have made the message very clear that we want to work with Republicans,” said Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.). “If they’re unwilling to work with us, there’s not a thing we can do about that, but the American people can see that like a very slow curveball.”

Reid is full of himself after his win. Sorry, Harry, you guys still control the WH and the Senate. As long as Republicans do a good job of taking their case to the American people - never a sure thing - it is the Dems that will be in trouble in 2012.

Barney runs a very responsive office. People contact his office for help with bureaucratic stuff and get results. I think that kind of attention to his constituents overrides whatever votes he casts as a Congressman.

Tell you a quick story. Back in the early ‘80s (late ‘70s?) I called the office of my Congressman, the ultra-liberal Peter Kostmayer. I have no recollection of why I called his office. Anyway, he wasn’t there when I called but by the end of the day he personally called me back. He spent time on the phone with me. That impressed me and the next election I voted for him.

I happen to know that Barney runs his office the same way.

I have my doubts Webb will run again. He has hardly raised a dime for re-election, and I am unconvinced that he likes the job all that much.

I am confident that Nebraska is ours. Nelson will probably retire rather than face sure defeat by the current governor.

Anybody know how the rancher lady in the Dakotas did in the election? I don’t remember what seat she was running for. Brain is on overload, maybe.

Any info would be appreciated.

I worry that we’ve created gridlock, which is good, but people don’t realize that we can’t do much except throw a wrench in the gears of the dem machine””

Hey- when someone is trying to kill me, I don’t care if I can only kneecap him so I can get away. I don’t have to kill him. I just have to stop his attack on me.

Lugar will be tough to take out here in Indiana.
But he’ll be 80 yrs old. Time to hang it up, Dick.””

Only fair to use this info as part of a campaign against him.

I think it is time to call for an age limit in Congress, since so many states cannot get it into their voter’s heads about TERM LIMITS.
