Perhaps the Political Suicide Club Conservatives might want to consider this. In all the political wet dream fantasizes that "Conservatives win by losing" what do they think happens to their slim chances of taking BACK the Congress if the Democrats follow up this with a reinstitution of the Fairness Doctrine?
The Fairness Doctrine would totally destroy Conservative Talk Radio. Without talk Radio the Conservative ability to win the Congress back goes from slim to nonexistent. This wacko wild butt guess that by losing the Congress the Republicans would be "forced" to more to the right is the dogma of political Know Nothings. This "idea" shows a complete ignorance of the powers of incumbency and the very real damage Democrats could do even if by some miracle they only held the Congress 2 years.

Corzine might have really frosted it this time. The people in NJ seem well and truht fed up with being lied to on a generational level by their politicians. Corzine swore he wouldn't raise taxes and it's one of the first things he did. He may have created another RINO seat in the Senate. I don't know if that's worthy of celebration or not, but it's one less liberal Democrat in the Senate seat count if Kean wins, and that's a win. Unless Kean is a conserative and I've missed that somehow.

Good heavens. I'm sorry Jonah had to read that.
Me too. I'm reading "Unveiling Islam", written by two former Muslims who were born in Iran, came to the U.S. as kids, and converted (with their third brother) to Christianity in the early 1980s. They write with sympathy toward Muslims, but are quite clear in explaining Islam's true nature and why they left it for Christianity. I'm learning a lot from it.
LOL!
