Dems in near-panic over Senate
americanthinker.com ^ | 9/2/2014 | Thomas Lifson

Schadenfreude, taking in pleasure in others’ suffering, is a nasty emotion, one I take no pride in confessing as I watch Democrats attempting to dodge responsibility for foisting Barack Obama upon us. Nevertheless, it is certainly satisfying to see Dems scurry away from Obama as he visits their states. Adam Edelman in the New York Daily News:

Sheesh! I don't know why the libs/progs/commies/dimokkkrats are worried. The gop seems to have a firm grasp on how to turn a potential victory in to a resounding defeat whenever they can. I'm hopin' for some change with the election but not holding my breath. No senate race in NV this time around. Heller has 4 more and the putrid/rancid/delusional hairy screed has 2. Hairy ain't lookin' too healthy these days.

I think Republicans will take the Senate, but it very well could be Republicans in panic in 2 years.
They always blow it

Roger that. NOT 51%, but 66-2/3% is the real magical number and I doubt seriously that’ll happen.

Don’t forget that many conservatives, including long time members of this forum, are actively working to help the Democrats and will, in some cases, vote for them in November. They could make a different in up to three races.

To paraphrase Mittens: “Gee whiz. I didn’t think it would be this bad.” If mittens couldn’t see it after the first 4 years, then his powers of observation are sorely lacking. But, have no fear. There are still plenty more deluded people out here that think the lyin’ king walks on sliced toast. Or something.

Schadenfreude

Geez--Talk about counting your chickens.

The GOP-e has declared war on Conservatives. How in heck do they expect to take the Senate, or hold the House, if/when Conservatives decide to sit this one out?

I expect the GOP to pick up some seats in November followed by lots of in-fighting and civil war the next two years.

Ok, so tell us what the GOP platform, vision or plan is going into 2014?
Because I have not heard one damn thing except Democrats bad.

And BTW, Ditch Mitch. We can win the rest of the senate races and be
just fine without Mitch.

What is the vision and plan the GOP have if they take the senate in 2014?

Why are the democrats worried about ending up with a 51-49 advantage? The detestable Harry Reid will remain their majority leader.

This talk of a GOP “wave” is nonsense. Americans like free stuff too much to give up on that lucrative little gravy train.

Good article!!! Look....Freepers & all Americans. Every day that Barack Hussein Obama remains in control of country is another day when we are in direct harm’s way...period. I watched two segments this AM on FNC, one with a mom/dad who lost their son, defending our country and the other with two young women, who clearly outlined how devastating Obama has been to our country and especially women!!! Actually, IMHO...both segments were right on target!!!

I cannot see how any American that loves our country could ever vote this evil man, Obama...who detests our great nation...and works every second to destroy it!!! He plays his cute game of doing a little of this or a little of that, seeming that he is with us, and the nation!!! He is not and never will be!!!

Bottom line: We, the people, can effectively remove him from office, if only we will turn out to vote against every single Democrat running for office this year, across the entire country!!! Political devastation and defeat is the only thing these “Traitor Obamabot”, Democrats understand. Massive defeat at the polls will motivate Democrats to march down to the White House and demand Obama’s resignation.

You...good folks saw the miserable “Labor Day” turnouts (all union thugs) for both Obama and Biden, yesterday and total failure of the predicted millions of would be cop killer, Michael Brown’s planned “Traffic Stop” demonstrations meant to tie up the nations Interstate Highway systems. The time for positive voting action is now...coming November 4, 2014!!! Please turn out and vote to destroy the entire Democrat Traitor Party, politically on election day this November!!! Your country and fellow citizens need to act to save our nation for our future generations!!!

Exactly. The only one I hear articulating a vision of any kind is Ted Cruz, and he isn't running this year.

"Actively working to help the Democrats?" Please define, as I don't see any FReepers pounding the pavement for any Democrat.

I'm not voting for Cornyn, as he was one of the contributors to Cochran's run-off fund, whose campaign ran these ads:

Even if the GOP ends up controlling both houses of Congress this November, little will change. There will only be stalemate for the next two years which is the best we can hope for until 2016.

BHO still has a veto pen and will not hesitate to use it.

The only way to get rid of crap like Obamacare is to elect a GOP POTUS, House, and Senate dedicated to repealing it.

Agreed. It wasn't Alison Grimes who threated to smash the faces of TEA Partiers.

The magic number is actually closer to 70-72 in order to offset the Rino factor.
