Liberalism IS a mental disorder.
I think this is the best thing that could've happened in this race. The GOP wins, and the Dems walk away thinking that their outmoded thinking is still viable rhetoric. We can only hope all Dems run a similar campaign in 2006.
With "victories" like this, I hope they just keep on winning.
Yeah? Check out democrat Hackett's ad... you simply will not believe your eyes. The rat pundits are lying through their teeth.
The ad stars.... George Bush!!. I kid you not!
Hackett would sooner be labeled a child molester than a democrat. The ad praised patriotism and the War on Terror, the two things democrats hate the most! The ads stars Hackett's sworn enemt, Bush... and the ad fails to mention that Hackett is a democrat, a liberal, anti-War on Terror, a sleezy trial lawyer, etc.

That is the exact same mantra that Carson ran on here in Oklahoma in 2004 against Dr. Tom and got handed his head. BTW, did I say that Clintonites ran his campaign. He lied, pretended to be a conservative, supported the President's agenda, etc. until right before the election when he thought he had already roped in enough conservatives to win. Carson got clobbered even if his phoney poll touted by the Tulsa World a week before the election said he was going to win.
That has to be their playbook.
I used to think they could not be that STUPID...I used to...
I have no doubt that they will do just that. The other evening I ran across a "shrieking head" segment, where the 'Rat kept saying that "the people" don't know what they want, and it's up to the 'Rats to do what they (the 'Rats) "know" is best for them. With arrogance like that, it's going to be hard for the 'Rats to win.
I've noticed that in an election, if a candidate doesn't have his/her political party emblazoned on their campaign material, it's almost always a 'Rat. Next thing you'll know, they'll show up at debates wearing paper bags over their heads like fans used to do at Saints games when I lived in New Orleans.
A narrow margin of 4%? These people are beyond desperate. I've seen many 100,000 vote cast elections be decided by a few dozen to a few hundred votes, but 4000ish votes is narrow?
I guess by that standard Bush's winning by the largest vote margin in US HISTORY was just "Narrowly" beat Kerry...
I'm sick of the press, they just don't get it. Liberal lies and they just parrot them. Dems through EVERYTHING and the kitchen sink, in an URBAN district and LOSE by a good margin, and then claim it a victory....
Insanity.
The present-day Democrat Party makes the 1970's and 80's Saints look like an absolute juggernaut...
The Republican candidate has voted for ALL RINO Governor Taft's tax increases and is, herself, a RINO.
DeWhine and Voinovich in the senate speaks volumes about the state of conservatism in Ohio. Surely another 'conservative' candidate could be raked up somehow.
It's nice that the Democrats have so realistically reduced their expectations that they congratulate themselves on coming in second out of two. I guess the 2000 and 2004 elections have had their proper effect.
Didn't Hackett call GWB a SOB in the USA Today paper ?
I'm sure whoever runs against him next time will pull that out. Thanks Paul....
BTW there's a good editorial on Hackett in the local paper Enquirer that pretty much brings it home..

If the Dems start running candidates who support lower taxes and a robust interpretation of the 2nd Amendment, ala Mr. Hackett, I will change my registration. Also, the woods will be free of ursine feces, the Holy Father will convert to Lutheranism, and Lucifer will be strapping on his ice skates.
You would think by the ad that he was Pro Bush if you knew nothing more about the guy. It is quite sleazy.
Indeed. This is like the Wehrmacht claiming Stalingrad was a "victory" because the Germans "only" lost one entire army, and not five.
How many blue states did Kerry win by 4% or less?
The thing I find absolutely hilarious is that over 70% of the voters stayed home and the Democrats STILL LOST!
This article makes Schmidt sound like such a poor candidate, it is surprising she won at all. So by our standards this was a smashing victory. ;)
