Reelect Nobody in Congress

Make certain you vote on Nov 4, BUT...DON’T REELECT ANYONE in Congress!

Congress is dominated by frauds who only want a cushy job with no boss or accountability. At the heart of this problem, is the growth of a class of career politicians, whose only purpose is to be reelected forever, not to govern well.

We, the voters, have it within our power to easily destroy these career politicians, and to never let them rise again. All we have to do is ALWAYS VOTE, BUT REELECT NOBODY!

Wow! That’s a pretty drastic idea! Soon we would wind up with only ‘inexperienced’ freshmen in our Congress. They’d all be from everyday business and industry, which has made us the most successful economy on earth. Would such a Congress be any good?

I bet it would be a helluva lot better, and more effective, than the current one.

REEELECT NOBODY? Try it, you’ll like it. I promise!

I agree with you 100%.

Now is the time...do NOT re-elect those in office...this is the only way we can ever get the government to look out for us instead of themselves.

A little late for that idea now. Should have vetted this during the primaries when it really mattered!

I voted against my incumbant in the primary. He won, and I will be voting for him in the general.

If I don’t vote for my Republican congresswoman, a Democrat could win. I’m not sure how that is good for me. All for term limits, but not like this.

Don’t be silly, my Senator is above reproach. Who’s ever heard of a scandal revolving around Larry Craig?

In general, if everyone votes out their incumbent, the Dems would increase their lock on Congress. What we need, more than anything else, is to get Pelosi and Reid deposed from their controlling positions in their respective houses. This can only be accomplished by voting straight Republican.

To all

I say it again: Term Limits !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

12 years (2 terms) in the Senate
12 years (6 terms) in the House
Must sit out a full term in the Senate before once can return.
Must sit out 2 terms in the House before one can return.

More specifically, if independents and Republican thinkers vote anti-incumbent, but the braindead liberal Democrats vote to re-elect their losers, Pelosi and Reid continue to run Congress.

IF YOU WANT TO BE ANTI-INCUMBENT, BE ANTI-DEMOCRAT INCUMBENT.
A lot of the GOP incumbents were tossed in 2006 and a lot more decided not to run again. of the 230 GOP Congresscritters in 2006 fewer than 160 will be there next year, even if the GOP does well.

NOW IS THE TIME TO DO IT ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE. VOTE OUT DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSIONAL INCUMBENTS.
