Wallace said - Bush is now "lame duck". Russert & Mathews said - Republicans "distance themselves" from the President to avoid defeat. Well, Proof is in the pudding.
U.S. Rep. Henry Cuellar(D) won his last election with 58 vote lead. He is a moderate, pro-growth, anti-tax, Bush loving democrat. Bush personally embraced him at SOTU event.
Then came the dem.primary - Club for Growth endorsed (1st time) this dem. Kos-hacks, Deaniacs, Unions, abortionists, move-on and the entire liberal dems. endorsed and funneled their money and energy into his opponent (lost last time) Ciro Rodriguez. Their main election agenda? Henry Cuellar is in Bush's pocket.
In the end, Club for Growth endorsed & Bush supporting dem. Henry Cuellar(D) won handily with increased margin, by 12 percentage points. That was a REAL POLL and Bush won his 1st 2006 election house seat through a democrat without even showing up for campaign.
Then, media was hoping for a run-off if not defeat for Tom Delay. Delay ended up winning with more than double the total of all his opponents combined. All these in the peak of media assault on the President over the port deal.
Thanks AB. I will be doing the top 10 today. Looks like FNC is getting as corrupt as the rest of the Junk Media. Seems they only are going to Republicans they can count on to trash the Republicans. Pence has a point about the Republicans on Fiscal issue, Hunter is just a media whore.
Good morning, Alas. Ari Berman from The Nation is on C-Span. He doesn't give Hillary! much of a chance.
Is this thing on?
