This is a shill-piece (albeit a hopeful one) for Hensarling to replace Boehner, and some sugar to make the amnesty medicine go down.
Notice the amount of TEA Congressmen mentioned.
Ted Cruz last week promised the top 10 issues the double-red Congress will achieve, and people are ripping him off on them all over the place.
I’m not so sure it will be the landslide that everyone is hoping for this election. The polls show the races are tighting a lot.
He knows that “pundits” of any political persuasion can publish any BS at all and the 90 percent they get wrong will be forgotten or forgiven by partisans of their viewpoint.
Why everyone is pretending that this election going against the party holding the white house is any thing but normal is beyond me; the party out of power almost always picks up seats in the last midterms of a 2 term president’t reign.
Obama may veto everything.
Not if he’s out numbered.
So many third partyers in here, that would like nothing more than hand victory over to the rats, just because their party has zero chances *sigh*
After I stopped laughing I realized this is a good reason to not vote for republicans. Because if this is what they will do if given power, they should not be given power.
Republicans, if they are fortunate enough to retake the Senate, must not throw away what may be America's last and only attempt to restore individual liberty and the rule of law, and that task can only be accomplished by restoring the ideas and principles essential to liberty to the "American mind" of 2014 and forward.
Else, 2016 will occur with a still-constitutionally-illiterate voter pool, and determined "progressives" will dominate public discussion.
Technology has made it possible for an innovative group of liberty lovers to capsulize and publicize the ideas which allowed individual freedom to flourish in the first place. So-called "progressives" no longer must be allowed to censor them out of textbooks, hide the Founders' writings in far-away and dusty stacks of libraries, or eliminate them from public discussion because they claim they violate some artificial PC standard they made up.
The opportunity to accomplish that task may have a short shelf life; therefore, those who want to pass on to future generations a nation where "freedom rings" had better begin restoring the ideas of liberty to a nation whose prevailing coercive power centers deny the very ideas which gave birth to freedom and opportunity.
Of course Billy Jeff is an American citizen, unlike Hussein, but still the thought of Hussein having to actually do some work if nice.
I’m sorry the GOP won’t capture the Senate. The Karl Rove lead ticket in NC is a complete f-up
Its good to see Kudlow is still taking his happy pills.
Somebody must be forcing Rush to take happy pills because he says basically the same thing.
The difference may be that the GOPe has been taking heavy shelling from their own right flank for several years now and the conservatives are getting stronger every election.
The leadership will complain because they are not used to being told what to do, but they will begin moving in that direction.
Oh look! Concern Troll pees on any positive editorial about the 2014s. HOW does Concern Troll still have posting rights?
Steyn: One Person Can Change Everything and I Like Ted Cruz

I hate to be a constant skeptic, but won’t the majority only allow McConnell to bring bills to the floor? The Democrats can still block them, can’t they? If this is accurate, nothing will make it to Obama’s desk because every (conservative) bill McConnell brings to the floor will be met with cries of starving children, and throwing old people onto the street. McConnell will suck his empty head back into his shell and hide, instead of promoting a positive message. On the positive side, I think a Republican Senate would actually make it harder for Obama to use executive orders, because the Republicans could point to legislation blocked by the Democrats.
Oh look! Concern Troll is back to this thread to drive home the message of "Abandon All Hope".
Concern Troll should have been banned in 2011.
Is he back to snorting that white powder?
“The idea that nothing much will change if the GOP captures the whole Congress is just plain wrong.”
The idea that the idea that nothing much will change if the GOP captures the whole Congress is just plain wrong.
It’s not going to make any difference. The Obama won’t be
impeached and prosecuted, neither will anyone in his
administration. Obamacare wont be thrown out. The IRS
wont be reformed or abolished. It will be pretty much
the same as the last time they had the majority in both
houses during baby Bush, more socialism, collectivism.
“Somebody must be forcing Rush to take happy pills because he says basically the same thing.”
That ‘somebody’ is the GOPe methinks.
