Yes it’s troubling that the Dems seem to be able to pull this off consistently in states with Republican governors and Secs of State.
Yes, he was. And when the Democrats made the mistake of running two honkeys after him (Gore and Kerry) they lost!
I think an unhealthy elderly white female with a black VP would have the same effect as the community organizers give the “wink wink” to the ‘hood about the plan.
That’s for sure. Especially as the GOP defends 24 Senate seats in 2016 whereas the democrats defend only 10.
And then there’s the issue of blase limp GOP leadership in Congress.
So far the momentum of 2014 is dissipating under an certain and ambiguous course direction set by McConnell and Boehner.
The more than one trillion dollars in funding for everything Obama wanted including pork for cronies during a LAME DUCK session with more than 1600 pages of legislation crammed down the throats of lame duck members in only 2 days HAS NO EXCUSE and is all the statement needed to understand that the GOP leadership product is a pack of lies.
Good tagline, actually.
The Crazy way Obama is acting the Democrats will lose more States next Election
We are at the tipping point. The Dems have created enough permanent votes for cyclical victories, with the dependent class, the illegals, and the voting dead, along with the media creating a propaganda machine that Goebbels would be proud of.
Democrats will get slaughtered in 2016, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico & Virginia wio,ill go Pubbie, big time...so will Texas, Florida, Ohio. Pennsylvania, Michigan, etc. Dems will carry less the twelve states with California and New York the biggest. The entire South will go ruby red. Republicans will gain seats in both the House and Senate.
The only action that can change this picture is, that Democrats turn on Obama. Less then that, they go out of office with him. 2016 will be a worse year for Democrats then 2014 was!!!
Never underestimate the ability of the GOP to screw it up.
1. the word originated from the practice of white males wishing to hire African-American prostitutes in the 1920's, and going to the appropriate part of town while honking their car horns to attract the whores. Some versions state that the reason for this was that the white men were too afraid to actually stop in those neighborhoods, so the honking would bring the hookers to them.
I realized that description fit Al And John perfectly!
Ha!

Nothing for Democrats to fear. Plenty for the middle class to fear, though.
Those three states with 27 or so electoral votes didn’t make a difference in 2008 or 2012, and they almost certainly won’t in 2016. The familiar ground of Florida and Ohio are much more key.
Funny you should mention Florida and Ohio. The author explicitly states why NV, CO, and VA are relevant in relation to FL and OH:
"Bankable wins here meant Democrats could forgo traditional battlegrounds like Florida and Ohio and still win an Electoral College majority."
He implies that if NV, CO, and VA are in play in '16, which they most certainly are, then the dems must devote fewer resources to FL and OH in order to compete in these other three states.
How about Illinois electing a Republican governor? That enough electoral votes for ya?
Your mouth to God’s ear!
North Carolina is far more important than Nevada, and the 2102 vote was closer there. The closer vote is true of Iowa too.
“Past performance is not a guarantee of future results..”
Agreed. Still, with another two years of The Messiah, 2016 is starting to look pretty darn good!
“Expect the rats to come out with their old BS about getting rid of the electoral college and go right to a popular vote.”
Guess who, as a newly elected Senator, proposed exactly that as her first bill? (It probably was her first bill, surely Bubba has higher standards in women.) Maybe not.
Her Thighness
Vote Fraud.
‘Nuff said.

Come on Sarge; it’s too early to start that “Vote Fraud” crap. It comes up, here on FR, every election cycle. We disproved that in the 2014 Midterms.

WOW! Then we better work our butts off to insure that we will have a Bush/Kasich Ticket in 2016.
(/sarc)
The Democrats have no choice but to run a Black candidate for President from now on, or they won’t be able to energize their base.

Probably so, but, I’ve had many Dems, as well as Pubbies, tell me that after Barack Obama, they will NEVER vote for another Black man for Prez. I’d say this puts the DemocRATS in a quandary.
