I would soooooooo appreciate it if these people would just shut up! I mean, our people. Do we really need them out there talking down the elections, abd acting as if everything was already all over? Jeepers!

The New York Times is the American version of Al Jazeera. Anyone who subscribes to the New York Times needs to discontinue their subscriptions. The only way to hurt them is to not give them money. The same goes for all the other MSM outlets that slam America and embolden our enemies.

In 2004, my 19 y/o son called me at work on emergency because he heard news on the radio that Kerry was winning huge. He is not active politically, and didn't even want to vote. But when he thought of the possibility of Kerry as pres - he drove straight to the polls and voted. He said the thought was "surreal". If my indifferent son can be spurred to do such a thing, imagine what effect the interested voter will have to this news?

From the article: NEWT says the Reps will lose "25 to 30" seats.
Thats some serious reverse psychology!

I'm not glum! I don't know anyone who shares my political beliefs who is glum. Sounds like the Times is making another effort to disenfranchise conservative voter's. Can we sue??
