Excellent point on the redistricting.

Wonder if Carville would like to rethink anything in his book about 40 years of Democrat “glory” rule.

Speaking of famous names, I heard somebody say it’s got to be Hillary for Dem. pres. in 2016, because the Dems. just don’t have anybody else.

So much for the media punks acting as though Republicans and conservatives are illegitimate and should be marginalized for good. That we have no right to put out our opinions and philosophies

So much for the media denying Republicans and conservatives equal time to put our message.

So much for Obama and Democrats having the media in their back pockets

So much for the young punks calling us old and in the way. And young punks acting as though they are entitled to take over now.

Pale, male and stale is their new putdown

I hope this excites a conservative movement that will seriously damage commie Democrats and their attempts to destroy this country.

There is one area where Congress can act and the president is irrelevant: Constitutional Amendment. Congress and the states should pass an amendment that clarifies that only the legislative branch can legislate. The amendment “nullify” every executive action that overstepped the Constitution. The amendment should be clear on enforcement.

"Time for the state legislatures to do some constitutional duty/judo and neuter the fedgov."

Repeal the ill-conceived 16th & 17th Amendments to the Constitution, and also amend the Constitution to give the states the power to recall bad-apple justices, executives and lawmakers. Remove justices by a 3/4 state majority vote.

They gained 10 in the CT House? Amazing. I did not know it was that many. Looks like no gains in the Senate, unless I am mistaken.

Its too much to hope, but how about an amendment to “clarify” NBC.

Still bummed that Iowa didn’t make this list. Gov. Branstad won 98/99 counties, by a net of 22% , but our state senate margin didn’t budge, still 26-24 Rat. The next special election can’t help either—it will be to replace Joni Ernst’s seat. There will be no switchers as the Rats have maintained this narrow margin for years.
