(WSJ) there is no one at this fishwrap who is pro limited G'ment

That is due to the RATs' creeping "crony capitalism" (Fascism) .

I don’t know why impeachment cannot be used to remove people under the president when the president fails to remove them from office for not doing their job.

Well, I know you can impeach judges, and we should have been for a while.

Nationally exit polls You can also check out the exit polls for Ohio and any other state

Ohio exit polls.

Romney won the white vote in Ohio 57% to 41%. Whites made up 79% of the voters. You can go county by county to see the vote totals. I do know that in Cleveland there was the case of one black voter voting six times. She was tried and convicted but her votes still counted.

Gore and Kerry both thought they had won.

I think its possible to diagnose what many of our actions will achieve politically. We have not done so in the past and we keep getting our asses kicked, I’m tired of that.I don’t know how to do it now but I’m going to learn.There is just too much at stake.

I’M afraid that is true that’s why I would like to know what our actions will produce before we do them.I’m tired of being beat by a political party that lies its ass off and stands for absolutely nothing but raw power.

Sadly, few on our side here are really listening to you. They just think that we’re not fighting hard enough, and if we double-down we win. But that’s not reality.

The facts are we indeed have not fought hard enough, but not for lack of trying, but rather because the media has tied one of our arms behind our back.

You’re idea of fighting HARDER against Obama’s underlings has great merit. Utterly isolate the king from his rabid ministers. The democrats learned this with Reagan. He was just too popular to fight head-on, so they invented Iran-Contragate. But that backfired too due to Lt Col Ollie North, praise God!

We, on the other hand, have SO MUCH MORE than Iran-Contra. We have, just to name the top five: Fast and Furious, IRS Scandal, Benghazi, NSA Spying, Veterans Affairs.

We need to hammer him and the democrats on this. Every democrat running should have these, plus ObamaCare and Amnesty tied around their neck by their respective Republican challenger every day until November 4th.

We don’t need to lie, because we have the TRUTH. But the TRUTH needs to be on the lips of every Republican as a simple set of talking points—uttered EVERY time a microphone is stuck in their face, and, like Chuck U Shumer before a camera, race to the front of the camera to declare them again.

We can win this with the truth.

Trying to impeach Obama while knowing it will not win a conviction is not sound—AT THIS TIME.

Demolish the democrats FIRST. THEN the time will be better.

I think the GOP has been taken over by political consultants who put the candidates into straitjackets. They come across as programmed and plain vanilla. They are afraid to express their real opinions. Everything is poll or focus group tested. One reason that Christie has some popularity is that he at least, appearance wise, does not seem to fear saying what he thinks even it offends someone. Ted Cruz is more outspoken than the usual GOP politician. It is refreshing.

When you keep doing the same thing over and over again and expect a different result, you are insane. Time to follow folks like Jeff Sessions (running unopposed this year) and Dave Brat.

Over a year ago, I had about a 45 minute one on one briefing session with Eric Cantor on the issue of immigration replete with charts and a briefing book. I said most of the things I have written here many times including reducing legal immigration. At the end, I asked him that if these immigrants were voting Rep instead of Democrat, would the Democrats allow immigrants to come into the country at over a million a year. He laughed and said, "No way." So why are we?

Phyllis Schlafly's 48 page Report, How Mass (Legal) Immigration Dooms a Conservative Republican Party is a good overview of immigration's electoral impact. It is worth the read.

She was tried and convicted but her votes still counted.

Why?

They should have knocked off a multiple of RAT votes just for that.

How do know how she voted? Once a vote is cast and counted, it is very difficult to reverse it. It loses its identity.

Those subject to impeachment are listed in Article II, Section 4: “The President, Vice President and all civil officers of the United States, shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of, treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.”

“All civil officers” clearly includes the errant and contumacious Attorney General and any other underling whom Congress wishes to expel.

There is some dispute whether a member of Congress is included, although it has been done before.

The truth doesn't matter to many voters. The only thing that counts is whether you have a D or R after your name. And the Rep message of smaller government, lower taxes, and individual responsibility doesn't resonate with many others.

Sure, I agree. And by itself means little to some people.

What I actually mean here is not that the truth will enlighten the unenlightened, but rather just as the democrats continuously spout off lies ad nauseum, such as “The Republican War on Women”, that we do so too, but we can do so truthfully.

How about keep reminding people “If you like your health insurance, you can keep your health insurance. Period.” And that’s just one example.

I also think this so-called child refugee cum amnesty thing has got a lot of people worried. They don’t want to seem racist, but they are really opposed to it. We need to push that hard. Use Jeff Sessions talking points, repeatedly.

Talking point after talking point, incidentally based on the truth, repeated over and over until Nov 4th.

Yeah it is, since the RATs brag about it, having "Vote early and often" as their motto.

The reports of big city voting districts having 150% or so voter turnout, and not a single Republican vote is not true?

I could very well see this being done on purpose so that a “health crisis” could be declared and force everyone onto Obamacare “for their own good”.
